Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

We contracted EBQ to build and manage an outsourced business development function to support our top-of-funnel outbound efforts. The engagement began in April 2026, with EBQ's team working directly inside our HubSpot CRM to prospect across a range of target accounts and verticals. Key deliverables included:

• Creating and expanding our contact base across target accounts and verticals;
• Outbound cold calling and appointment setting across an assigned list of target accounts.
• Ongoing management of prospect data and call activity within our existing CRM
• Weekly pipeline recaps and reporting on outreach progress and results
• Coordination with our internal team to hand off qualified meetings and opportunities

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Since engaging EBQ in April 2026, their team has consistently expanded our contact coverage across target accounts and maintained a steady cadence of outreach and reporting. While still early in the relationship, we've seen meaningful new prospect engagement and improved visibility into our outbound pipeline.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

EBQ has been consistent and reliable in their project management. Their team delivers weekly recaps on schedule, keeping us informed on outreach activity and pipeline progress. They've been responsive to our needs, quick to address requests, and proactive in flagging anything relevant along the way.

What was your primary form of communication with EBQ?

Virtual Meeting

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

What's stood out most is how well EBQ's team has integrated into our company and taken the time to understand our brand and culture, rather than treating us like just another account. That kind of genuine fit is rare with an outsourced partner.

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

Nothing significant comes to mind. We have a weekly call and email exchange, so if any thoughts, ideas, or issues come up, they're brought up and addressed right away, and they're quick to pivot if needed. They've been a great partner overall.

EBQ dialed from a list of leads that Ocra provided to get contact information for the general managers at hotels in target markets. When they connected with the General Manager, EBQ would pitch Ocra and set an appointment, referring the GM to our CEO for a discovery meeting. Primary delivery was meetings booked.

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

The people who work at EBQ were really good partners. Dante, our Sales contact who was with us from Day One, is extraordinary in his role and a fantastic human, to boot. The team that he assembled for us experienced some turnover throughout the duration of our partnership and he did a great job providing stability and being transparent about what each change meant for our business.

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

We were assigned 4 different reps during our 6-month tenure. While the transitions were handled well, it meant that there were several ramp-up periods of lower call volume and slower momentum. There wasn't much feedback from them on how well the messaging was working, and we provided all of that ourselves so it would have been go to know what was landing and what wasn't so we could adjust. But even through less-than-smooth periods, the EBQ people were terrific partners, and we worked through everything as a team. Really appreciate their partnership.
