CLIENT
Nimble Media is a set of digital marketing companies that work as an entire corporate entity. Their streamlined services cover professional copywriting, PR, lead generation, and consulting for SMBs in various industries.
CHALLENGE
Considering the fact that Nimble Media has been providing their services since 2011, they had a considerable pool of clients at the moment. They hired us to help them scale their business throughout different industries. Our client needed to generate more leads for copywriting and PR services, so we needed to focus on SMBs who could benefit from outsourcing these processes. The ultimate KPI for us was the number of scheduled introductory calls with Nimble Media sales team. RESULTS For only 6 months, we were able to:- - Grow client’s network with more than 20 000 valuable connections;
- Generate almost 3000 MQL leads;
- - Schedule 748 calls;
- - Reach average Reply Rate higher than 25%. Considering the fact that we only had 1 follow-up message, it is a great result. With a more aggressive approach, this rate could be even higher.

Enterprise Lead Generation for IT Outsourcing Company
The Lead Generation campaign we are going to highlight in this Case Study was fairly one of the toughest we have ever implemented. The reason for that is the audience we were targeting. These were C-level professionals and decision-makers in big IT companies throughout the US.
CLIENT
Our client is a team and network of tech professionals ready to implement sophisticated technology objectives, through superior software development and data science.
15 years of experience in tech outsourcing has led this company to work with more than 10 industries including Finance & Banking, Travel & Hospitality, eCommerce, etc.
CHALLENGE
Just like we have mentioned in the introduction, the main challenge was that our target audience was unapproachable (comparing to other audiences we’ve worked with).
You will find a more detailed description of whom we were targeting in the “Target audience” section.
The audience included various professionals who can be generalized as “IT Seniors” and it is important to mention that these professionals are extremely picky when it comes to networking.
RESULTS
This Lead Generation campaign is a great example of how audience segmentation and personalized approach can generate leads even in the most hostile environment. During this campaign, we were able to:
- - Grow client’s network with 1150 decision-makers in major IT companies;
- - Generate almost 200 MQLs;
- - Arrange 26 appointments with C-level executives in the IT and Computer Software industries.
Besides providing our client with a considerable number of arranged appointments, we were also able to leave our clients with almost 200 ongoing conversations with representatives of leading IT companies.
It is also important to mention that a single B2B sale in the IT industry returns all the marketing investments, which makes this campaign extremely successful considering its context.

How to generate 40 SQLs in just 1 month in the Banking Industry
This case study for our LinkedIn Lead Generation system perfectly depicts how a combination of an innovative FinTech solution and a proper outreach strategy can generate impressive results.
CLIENT
Aspire is a Singapore-based company that provides an innovative banking solution, allowing businesses to solve short-term cashflow gaps.
CHALLENGE
It would seem that with such a beneficial product, lead generation would be a piece of cake. But there is no lead generation campaign without a challenge, and this one is no exception.
To convert a lead in this niche, it was crucial to reach the right person within the target company. This person should be both a decision-maker and someone who has sufficient financial background to evaluate the benefits Aspire’s service delivers.
To make it even more interesting, it’s important to mention that Aspire’s marketing strategy is focused on growth within Southeast Asian markets, making the targeting requirements even more narrow. Overall, there are about 78 million of small enterprises (their target audience or TA) in our target region.
To make it even more challenging, Aspire defined 4 main TA features that would qualify prospects (details in the full case study linked below).
RESULTS
Here is a summarized breakdown of results in just one month of our LinkedIn Lead Generation Campaign:
Invitation Requests Sent: 2276
New Connections: 534
Replied: 131
Calls: 13
Hot: 40
Progressing: 68
Acceptance Rate: 23.5 % (Added/Accepted)
Reply Rate: 24.5 %
This campaign is still running. We will update this case study as the results are delivered.
We overcame the challenges of finding a needle in a haystack of target audiences and nurtured them successfully with a personalized messaging and outreach strategy.

Quora. How to establish your personal branding.
There is a worldwide personal branding trend in B2B marketing. Basically, it can be described as “getting public personally acquainted with company’s top-management”. More an more entrepreneurs now understand the importance of personal image.
So here’s the tricky thing for B2B marketers: How are they supposed to elevate clients’ personal branding?
Then we have realized that our CEO has a Quora account, that has been registered in far 2013 but had no considerable activity. So we have thought: why don’t we try that? And we tried. And the results were surprising!
RESULTS:
Besides the fact that our profile was created in 2013, we have started working on it at the beginning of January 2018. It took us a couple of weeks to do the research, fill in all the essential information, write some answers, and find a couple of endorsers to upvote them.
Now, it is the 4th month of the campaign and we have achieved pretty impressive results. For the last three months, we were able to hit 16 Quora Digests, reaching approximately 200 000 people via e-mails. Totally, we have received 22.8 thousand upvotes and almost 600 000 views in 3 months. Please mind that these numbers are totally organic, with no paid traffic involved!

Social Media Consulting for Marketing Agency
"They have a constant desire to test and optimize different approaches."
the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the CMO of Solus Agency. We are a company that provides marketing support for different startups, blockchain projects, and other similar projects.
What challenge were you trying to address with Respect.Studio?
We hired Respect.Studio to help us with LinkedIn consulting, lead generation, and content creation. We needed someone to help our company build a bridge to the US market, as well as help drive more calls to our sales team to fill up our pipeline.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Respect.Studio conducted a detailed briefing of the project to understand our goals, services, and target audience. During the preparation part, they prepared a content strategy and LinkedIn script. The team also optimized four of our LinkedIn accounts and they also created a client list that compromises clients that we thought are good to have.
Once the campaign began, they started preparing the email campaigns. These include working with our domain to secure the outreach, the creation of the email script, automation of the campaign, and linking it between our CRM system.
What is the team composition?
We’ve worked with seven people. Yuri (CEO) handled the initial communication of the project. Victoria (Account Manager), we had the most interaction with her. We also worked with Kate (Project Manager).
How did you come to work with Respect.Studio?
A friend of mine recommended Respect.Studio as an expert in the field. They had vast experience in lead generation for tech companies that’s why we decided that they’re good enough to move forward with.
How much have you invested with them?
I believe we’ve spent between $25,000- $30,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with them last January 2020 and they are still our partners.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We managed to generate 500 calls from our four profiles in 10 months. At the very beginning, it was really about preparing, designing, and writing the script. We started to get good results in the middle of the second month. It started with a huge amount of frozen communication between our profiles and our target audience.
Slowly but surely, these communications were going down to our desired pipeline and to a call from our sales team. At the end of the second month, we received around eight calls from our profiles. For the third month, the number of calls was around 13 for each profile. By the end of the third month, we started seeing results from the email campaign, too.
In the fifth month, we started getting results from content creation and generation as we’ve got some inbound requests from links and connections.
How did Respect.Studio perform from a project management standpoint?
They were doing pretty good, but it took some time for us to collaborate with them because we are different companies with different speeds. We never had any problems with communication and meetings.
The main problems for us were hard clients. We prepared several segments of our target clients and we wanted to have their information. But it was not very smooth at the beginning because the target audiences were a bit hard. But when Respect.Studio started with their insights, everything was running smoothly.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Their case studies and level of communication were really impressive. They really know the ins and outs of LinkedIn, and they are real professionals. They know some of the deep points that we would never even think about, so they’re really impressive. I was also quite impressed by the depth of their knowledge and the suggestions they made during the campaign.
The communication we had between our team was exceptionally good. They have a constant desire to test and optimize different approaches. They showed that they wanted to be the best service provider.
Are there any areas they could improve?
As I’ve mentioned, in the beginning, we wanted to do everything as soon as possible. I would also say to not make mistakes during the first month. Trust the clients sometimes, but not too much. They know the work better than the clients, so don’t get pushed too far.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Just trust them because they really know their job.

The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am Founder of eCade, a cutting-edge market analytics tool, designed specifically for the eCommerce segment. We are currently a startup of 5 and our clients are mostly located in Western Europe.
For what projects/services did your company hire Respect.Studio?
During both campaigns, Respect.Studio’s main responsibility was to generate qualified B2B leads so our sales team could process them, thus boosting growth. However, this was not the only field of responsibility, as RS team was also involved in content strategy development. video production, and the overall marketing strategy.
What were your goals for this project?
The first campaign was aimed at European fashion market penetration. Our product was a cutting-edge SaaS solution that would enable professionals to establish B2B connections much quicker than how it is done now. The other campaign was focused on B2B Lead Generation, promoting a unique business analytics tool, tailored specifically for eCommerce sector.
Currently, we have a small team and did not want to distribute in-house team capacity on marketing, as we are rather focused on product development at this point.
How did you select this vendor?
I was well aware that my target audience uses LinkedIn actively, so I started looking for an agency that could help us with that. Among their competitors who mostly provide automated solutions, I have chosen Respect.Studio because I needed someone who can implement LinkedIn Lead Generation for me manually and take responsibility for the results.
Describe the scope of their work in detail.
Respect.Studio’s team were tightly cooperating with my internal team, taking responsibility for the development of the overall digital marketing strategy, including the digital channels analysis, competitor analysis, and initial target audience assessment. Based on these insights, they have developed a promotion plan that was mainly focused on but not limited to LinkedIn lead generation.
Besides LinkedIn lead generation activities (which included profile optimization, message script writing, target audience setup, and continuous improvements of the abovementioned), Respect.Studio’s scope of work included: - content production (for LinkedIn & Facebook); - video production (creation of short promo videos, showcasing product to be used during PPC and SMM campaigns); - advisory (in our cooperation with Respect.Studio, they were open to share their knowledge in order to improve our overall marketing results).
During both campaigns, I and my team took proactive part in the ongoing process, providing quality assurance and guidance when it comes to everything except lead generation. When it comes to lead generation - I have trusted Respect.Studio on the overall approach and implementation, checking only the messaging script that was used.
Respect.Studio’s direct responsibilities were content creation and distribution through social media channels. While content creation part needed proactive involvement from our side to have everything done properly, the lead generation part was implemented swiftly and smoothly. One of the best features of Respect.Studio is their continuous improvement that was done autonomously. On a weekly basis, the team analyzed ongoing results and has come up with some ideas on how to do their work better.
What was the team composition?
During the two projects, team composition has differed a bit because the campaigns took place with some delay, during which Respect.Studio has hired some new people. Here’s the breakdown of the team: - Iurii - CEO - Victoria - Business developer - Anastasia & Kate - Project managers - Vasyl - Lead Generation manager - Taras - Content manager There were also some subcontractors who have done video production, but I am not directly acquainted with them.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
While the first campaign was stopped a couple of month after launch, the results are far from satisfying. However, it would be fair to say that it was not caused by the team’s incompetence or something. There were some unpredicted external factors that have made us to stop any marketing activities. However, this campaign has resulted in a much better understanding of the target market, as RS lead generation involves direct interaction with the target audience, so they were able to collect some valuable insights for us.
We have our second campaign running for the 3rd month and so far the results are optimistic. To be honest, I do not feel the tangible revenue boost at this point, but I see the promising traction and the approach of the working team makes me think that they will adapt their activities until the result is achieved.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
It would not be fair to state that everything went perfect. There were some delays in content production and some errors done during lead generation. However, none of these errors has caused serious damage and there were also mistakes done by our side as well. Overall, I would say that the great agility of both teams enabled them to adapt to the ever-changing environment and manage resources efficiently to get the desired results.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
As I have mentioned before - I believe that the best feature of RS is their agility and adaptiveness. This is the exact feature that gives the ability to react to the changes in a swift manner. Besides that, they were not afraid to go the extra mile and do some things that are not included in their usual offer to meet the needs of the campaign.
It is also important to mention that RS have their communication on a very high level, showing responsiveness and being able to communicate every potential error before it actually happens. They are also really transparent about their processes, so it was not a problem for me to have a clear understanding of what is being done at particular moment.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Respect.Studio definitely need some improvement on the content creation side, as this process seems to be unstable and sometimes took more time than expected. There also were some minor errors in lead generation because of a misunderstanding of who are we looking for.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm the Chief Marketeer of a digital PR agency. My role is to bring in business (mainly in the tech space) and service the key accounts under my care.
For what projects/services did your company hire Respect.Studio?
We hired Respect Studio to find leads through LinkedIn as we felt that our usual lead generation methods weren't fast enough. Typically, we would rely on SEO/SEM and networking but never had we tried out something like this. We believe we had a good service to offer but needed more prospects to be aware of it.
What were your goals for this project?
Our hope was to get 300 prospects over 3 months. If we could do that, we would only need to close a fraction of that number to ensure good deal flow.
How did you select this vendor?
We saw solid testimonials from past clients and the team was very helpful in walking us through the process. Their dedication and quick response (despite being in different timezones) was much appreciated. We felt that the process was transparent and that we could trust them.
Describe the scope of their work in detail.
Respect optimised my LinkedIn profile to elicit more engagement from prospects. They then gave me a detailed onboarding document so Respect was able to understand what we did as an agency. After which, we narrowed down the audience that we wanted to reach (company scale, location, industry, key decision maker titles). Next they crafted a 4 step messaging process. Lastly, they reached out to as many relevant people as possible via linkedin - including following up with me to ensure I take over leads that were highly engaged.
What was the team composition?
I worked closely with the project manager and the project assistant. I was also in touch with sales manager as well.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Since the start of the campaign, we've received almost twice the amount of leads that we expected. We were very pleased to see that these leads are relevant and interested in our offerings. My sales team is ecstatic to be provided an abundance of clients.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
The workflow was quite seamless - after a quick onboarding process, we were able to start almost immediately. The team were very quick in responding any queries we had.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
The value of what they are delivering - the work that is done is very intensive and impossible for us to replicate on our own. I've never seen anyone else offer this service, let alone at the price they are offering.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Nothing specific to Respect. I believe the only area for improvement is on LinkedIn, the messaging aspect of the platform is not great for looking up old messages.

Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the founder of a company called Strategrow. We do strategic consulting services, market strategy, sales processes, and training.
What challenge were you trying to address with Respect.Studio?
I built the business by going to networking events and talking to people. I’d pitch up to 50 people per event on my business so we could bootstrap it without external investment. However, we were looking for a way to scale up lead generation through LinkedIn.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Their team provided LinkedIn lead generation. They would reach out to our target audience, message them, and follow up on our behalf. In terms of our profile, they would optimize it and keep us updated on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis.
They would notify us when there was someone read to speak with me. They were able to generate calls and good business from that.
What is the team composition?
There were three people. We had a project manager who delegated responsibilities to the rest of the team. They also added a content manager who was responsible for putting together the messaging materials we were using. Lastly, there was an account manager who did the execution work of implementing that content.
How did you come to work with Respect.Studio?
Initially, we were looking for different vendors online in Ukraine. We made a contact who introduced us to them on LinkedIn. They were able to step in and provide high-level service.
What is the status of this engagement?
The project started in August 2019 and is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We’ve generated hundreds of leads, perhaps thousands after a few months. The quality of the people we’re speaking with is really good. They’re engaged and like what they’re hearing.
Their team is also very proactive and data-driven. They wanted A/B testing and other approaches to see what would work. Over the long term, the relationship and results improved because of their approach. The results were improved because of their approach to lead generation.
How did Respect.Studio perform from a project management standpoint?
We work directly with Kate (Project Manager) on their team. She was great and kept everything organized and on-time. The onboarding was done ahead of schedule. The weekly reports and daily prompts were sent very quickly. They’re in Ukraine, so they’d send answers by the morning.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Their expertise in LinkedIn is impressive. They’ve showed me how LinkedIn works and how you can push the limits of the platform. The data is also great.
Are there any areas they could improve?
Not really. Because they weren’t native speakers, sometimes the messaging needed to be perfected and more nuanced for specific markets, like Canada.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Look for a long-term relationship with them. It’s different than traditional marketing because you need to build relationships with decision-makers in your target audience. Let them build rapport, push out content, and build awareness.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I run a small marketing agency specialized in outsourcing marketing-department support.
What challenge were you trying to address with Respect.Studio?
We had a client that needed strategy and lead generation execution, and we went to Respect.Studio for this job.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Respect. Studio discovered new B2B clients for us by identifying ideal target clients and providing options for how to move forward. They also manually searched on LinkedIn for the clients.
They provided us with valid, precise, and really cool analyses at the end of each period in a report. In the end, we received high-quality suggestions on how to develop our LinkedIn lead generation strategies.
What is the team composition?
We were in contact with at least three people from Respect.Studio, including Anastasiia (Project Manager, Respect.Studio).
How did you come to work with Respect.Studio?
I found their information online, but we’re also from the same city, so it wasn’t hard to find common connections. I decided to work with them on this project because they had a great portfolio. It seemed they were really professional at what they did.
How much have you invested with them?
The cost so far has been $115,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with Respect.Studio three months ago around June 2019. We’re working with them on a monthly basis, for ongoing client support.

How did Respect.Studio perform from a project management standpoint?
We’ve got a Telegram channel, which enabled us to have fast conversations and react to the issues that came up.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They are very structured. The information they provide makes it feel as if they own the process. The reporting was also well-developed, which helped a lot. Their competitors didn’t provide such extensive monthly reporting.
Are there any areas they could improve?
They could change the messenger to something like Slack. It’s not always convenient to share business information through the one we’re using.
Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?
It’s important to share as much information from the client side as possible.

How did Respect.Studio perform from a project management standpoint?

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
Our communication was smooth. They worked directly with my profile and sent daily updates and reports. If I had any questions, someone from the team reacted quickly, consulted me, or made the required changes. They were always online, even outside working hours.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
I was definitely impressed by the results they produced. We had never considered LinkedIn as such a powerful channel for B2B marketing.
Are there any areas for improvement?
It would be great if they could also advertise on social media.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm co-founder and travel expert at BookMeFirstClass, a flight management company. We help individuals book first-class and business class tickets at a discount.
For what projects/services did your company hire Respect.Studio?
We were considering LinkedIn as an alternative to a standard PPC channel. We didn't have a clear request, so we needed an expert to guide us through our lead generation strategy.
What were your goals for this project?
Given the price, we expected this channel to bring us at least one client a month. That would give us a positive ROI. Creating this channel would diversify our marketing and make us less dependent on the PPC channel.
How did you select this vendor?
We found this vendor on Upwork. Other agencies work in the same niche, but they lacked the narrow focus on LinkedIn that Respect.Studio had. That was one of the main factors.
Describe the scope of their work in detail.
We initially needed a strategy, but the scope of the work broadened later. They built lists, managed our LinkedIn and Instagram pages, contacted potential clients, and performed cold email outreach.
What was the team composition?
At first, we worked directly with the CEO and our account manager. As we increased the scope of the work, we added two team members: a social media manager and a project manager. I worked directly with the team.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
It was hard for us to see results since we failed to identify the right target audience. Once we changed our focus to the next group of potential clients, however, we immediately started to receive leads. Our ROI became positive within two months.
We started to scale up with email marketing, social media marketing, and more LinkedIn profile targeting. LinkedIn is now one of our main channels, significantly exceeding our expectations.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
We communicate with the team directly through email, and usually receive replies within a few hours, even though we have a big time difference. The CEO always stays in touch on WhatsApp, and we have weekly or monthly calls to discuss the scaling and optimization of the campaign.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
Their friendly approach and deep knowledge of LinkedIn are a big plus.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Adding more services, such as PPC management, would be beneficial. It's always more convenient to work with one digital vendor.

The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm the marketing director for a third-party logistics provider across North America.
For what projects/services did your company hire Respect.Studio?
To manage the president's profile and promote our branding across the LinkedIn, focusing on a highly-targeted audience.
What were your goals for this project?
To engage and build credibility around our brand and services. We also wanted to broaden our network of followers in our sphere of logistics.
How did you select this vendor?
We found them on Fiverr and slowly got to know and trust them. We eventually met with the owner while visiting Ukraine last winter.
Describe the scope of their work in detail.
They managed all the social campaigns we run on LinkedIn, while suggesting strategies and adjusting them along the way to better suit our needs.
What was the team composition?
There is a small but efficient team of around three people. It's sufficient considering the excellent level of communication we maintain.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Within the first seven days, we'd seen a positive ROI of over 25%. People are now engaging at a faster rate.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
There was excellent workflow and excellent communication levels, with weekly reports supplied every Monday.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
The creative solutions they presented to us for an otherwise too complicated and underutilized social network were excellent. Previously, we were sharing content without any ROI, but now we benefit from our presence on LinkedIn.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Nothing specific. They keep me busy responding to all the professionals engaging with our profile and asking questions.
