We hired AI bees to schedule appointments with decision makers within our target market.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We had previously worked with AI bees on a self-managed LinkedIn campaign. The software worked perfectly & their team was great. When they came to us with a professionally managed solution with a guarantee to deliver XX qualified appointments/month it was a no-brainer on our part.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

AI bees was our outsourced SDR team. They worked with us to create templated verbiage & cold outreach sequences via LinkedIn and Email that they hyper-personalized for each individual outreach. They tracked performance, made the appropriate changes and would solicit our input when neccessary. They would then nuture any responses recieved until enough interest was expressed and would then use our calendaring tool to schedule an appointment with one of our sales reps.

Our team consistently included an Account Manager, Copy Writer and SDR/BDR however our initial Sales Rep, the VP and other specialists would occasionally be involved.

Traditionally we've used cold calling & referral marketing to generate leads so this was our first attempt at this type of marketing.

Ultimately the project was a success, generated multiple new clients and reoccurring revenue that exceeded the cost.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Great! They were proactive and clear in their communication.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their integrity! If you've worked with other marketing/lead gen firms then you know how rare integrity is in the industry. AI bees held true to our mutually agreed upon lead qualification standards, was receptive to our feedback/adjustments and fullfilled the terms of the guarantee.

Is there any area for improvement or anything that could have been done differently?

At one point we we got a new SDR, so there was a little learning curve but that's to be expected.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire AI bees, and what were your goals?

We hired AI Bees at the start of the COVID 19 Pandemic as a means to target customers digitally. Before the pandemic, our main means for meeting customers were in person and at conferences located all over the world. As the pandemic's rapid spread caused governments to take extensive measures to reduce contact, we quickly lost our chances to meet customers. By adding AI Bees to our initial marketing and sales plan, we were able to continue our outreach for new customers digitally without having to leave our homes.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We were turned onto AI Bees via one of our partners. We decided on AI Bees over LinkedIN's Octopus due to AI Bees's account management services. Having an account manager really saves us a lot of time when it comes to keeping our campaigns flowing.

Our project managers have all been really great so far. Each one has been really helpful, transparent, fast, and friendly. I really get the feeling that I am valued as a customer and as a human being.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

How great the account managers are! As well as how malleable the tool is. We not only target our customers but have also used the tool to announce our presence at virtual events and to hire new teammates.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Nothing comes to mind right now.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Transvalor Americas is a software editor. We develop Finite Element Method software for the manufacturing industry. I am the director of Sales and Technology at Transvalor Americas Corp.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire AI bees?

We hired AI Bees, to increase our awareness on our markets. We need to communicate to more people and reach out to them and engage with them. AI Bees is the vehicle for us to reach out to them and start the engagement process through LinkedIn connections.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

They reached out to me via LInkedIn, and I agreed to meet with them. After the presentation, I thought it was worth a shot, and started working with the team. The deciding factor was mostly the wide outreach I could see through LInkedIn, and to be honest no competitor reached out to me, so they were the first.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

The project is very simple. I decide what market I want to communicate to, and I create the list of contacts from LinkedIn, and generate the campaign within AI BEES Dashboard platform. Then my account manager reaches out to me and make sure the campaign is set up properly, and we review it together to make adjustments.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

I had three account managers so far, and that is all the interactions, and to be honest that is all I need at this stage.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The first success has been to increase my network on LinkedIn. I went from barely 500 connections to 1,200 connections in 6 months, which is great because any communication I post on Linkedin has much more impact. The second success is the direct contacts I had with prospects. So far, I have turned any prospects into actual deals, but I am hopeful it will happen in the near future.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

This has been very effective and very pleasant to work with their team. All the account managers we have been interacted with are very useful and helpful.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

They are very efficient. They are on our account even if we do not communicate about our new campaigns They know because they monitor your account very well. In addition, we have a weekly meeting with my account manager, and even if I had to skip some of them, it has been very useful in letting me know what is going on with my campaigns, and pushed me on creating new campaigns.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

I cannot think of anything on the top of my mind. For me, AI BEES has delivered what they told they will, and I am very satisfied with the treatment of my account and the persons I am in contact with and I have been in contact with.
