The same system, proven on real campaigns
Before it was packaged for editors, this outreach system was run for real clients. Here's what it produced.
Case study 01
NG
NexGen Digital
Digital Marketing Agency · US SMB Market
Total deal value generated$127,500
The challenge
- Struggling to book calls with US-based SMBs despite competitive pricing ($2,000–5,000/month)
- Cold emails were generic — no connection to the prospect's actual business situation
- No structured follow-up; deals died in the inbox after one touch
- Sales team closing rate was low because calls weren't pre-qualified
What we did
- Audited 200 prospects manually before writing a single email — identified that most targets had 3.5-star or lower Google ratings, which became the personalized hook
- Built a 6-touch sequence (email + LinkedIn) referencing each prospect's specific local SEO gap
- Created a pre-call qualifier via a short intake form tied to the booking link — filtered out tire-kickers before they hit the calendar
- Trained the sales team on a structured 15-minute discovery call framework tied to SMB pain points (foot traffic, reviews, local competition)

"We'd been sending the same cold email to everyone for 18 months. They rebuilt the whole approach around what our prospects actually care about — their Google ratings, their local competitors. First qualified call came in week two."

Case study 02
AX
Apex IT Solutions
IT Solutions & Custom Software · UK & Canada Enterprise
Total deal value generated$245,000
The challenge
- Enterprise deals ($15,000–50,000/project) require C-suite buy-in — cold emails were bouncing off gatekeepers before reaching CTOs
- Phone outreach was generating instant rejections
- No system to demonstrate technical credibility before getting on a call
- Long sales cycles (3–6 months) meant pipeline visibility was almost zero
What we did
- Shifted primary channel from cold email to LinkedIn voice notes targeting CTOs and VP Engineering directly — bypassed admin filters entirely
- Sent 90-second voice notes referencing the prospect's tech stack (pulled from job postings and LinkedIn), then followed up with a case study email 48 hours later
- Built a 'technical snapshot' email — a one-page PDF showing relevant past projects in the prospect's stack, attached to follow-up touch #2
- Designed a pipeline tracker to maintain visibility across 3–6 month cycles so no deal fell through

"No one had ever sent us a voice note referencing our exact tech stack before. It was disarming. We booked 4 discovery calls in the first month from that alone."
