Question 1

What exactly is included in the pilot (€3,900)?

Accepted Answer

The pilot includes: in-depth ICP research and playbook creation, setup of a dedicated outbound infrastructure (domains, sender accounts, warmup), 500 verified and enriched leads, and multi-channel sequences going live in week 2. You receive a full month of campaign runtime including ongoing optimisation.

Question 2

How does the 5-replies guarantee work?

Accepted Answer

We guarantee at least 5 qualified replies during the pilot period. If not reached: free extension by 2 additional months. If after a total of 3 months there are still no 5 qualified replies, you receive 50% of the setup fee (€1,950) back. Requirements: ICP data within 5 business days, reply handling by your sales team within 48h, and attendance of all booked meetings.

Question 3

What is a "qualified reply"?

Accepted Answer

A positive response from a decision maker who matches the defined ICP and has signalled concrete interest in a solution or a conversation. Meeting intent or higher, AI confidence >80%, verified by conversation screenshot.

Question 4

How is the monthly retainer structured?

Accepted Answer

The retainer is based on your growth goals: Base €2,500/month (incl. 1 playbook, 1 email sender and 1,000 leads). Additional playbooks cost €500/month. Extra leads cost €1/lead in 500-unit increments. Email senders cost €100/profile/month. LinkedIn senders cost €100/profile/month. Optional CRM integration (HubSpot/Salesforce) costs €500/month. Longer terms come with discounts on the base price (up to 20%).

Question 5

What happens with leads per 1,000 contacts?

Accepted Answer

2025 B2B outbound benchmarks: from 1,000 leads we typically generate 50–80 MQLs (positive/neutral replies), of which 15–25 become qualified SQLs, 8–12 meetings are booked, and 2–4 new customers are won. We optimise these numbers monthly based on your actual conversion rates.

Question 6

Which channels are covered?

Accepted Answer

Email is included in every playbook. Additional email senders cost €100/month per profile. LinkedIn is optional and is also billed at €100/month per profile. Sequences are multi-channel and individually tailored to your target audience.

Question 7

How quickly will I see first results?

Accepted Answer

Week 1–2: onboarding, ICP research, infrastructure setup and playbook creation. Week 2: first campaigns go live. Week 3–4: first replies, MQLs and meetings in your calendar. From month 2 in the retainer: continuous scaling and optimisation.

Question 8

Do I need my own tools or infrastructure?

Accepted Answer

No. We build the complete outbound infrastructure for you — dedicated domains, sender accounts, warmup, enrichment tools and sequencing. Optionally we integrate everything into your existing CRM (HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, etc.).

Question 9

Who owns the leads and data?

Accepted Answer

All generated leads, contact data and campaign data are 100% yours. Upon contract termination you receive all data and can continue to use it.

Question 10

What sets you apart from a classic lead agency?

Accepted Answer

Classic agencies often work template-based with little personalisation and long contract terms (3–6 months). We deliver AI-powered, scaled personalisation, dedicated infrastructure, and a performance guarantee with a money-back option. Our ramp-up takes 2–4 weeks instead of 4–8.

Question 11

Is there a minimum contract term in the retainer?

Accepted Answer

After the pilot there is no financial guarantee — but full transparency instead. Monthly performance reports with reply rates, meeting numbers and pipeline values. If performance is off, we optimise targeting, messaging and sequences. The retainer is cancellable monthly after the initial phase.

Question 12

Can I scale the Outreach Engine?

Accepted Answer

Yes, immediately. You can add additional playbooks, extra leads or LinkedIn profiles at any time. Unlike an SDR hire (3–6 months ramp-up), the engine scales via add-on — without recruiting, onboarding or turnover.

Question 13

Is this GDPR-compliant?

Accepted Answer

All outbound activities are conducted in accordance with GDPR requirements after an initial consultation. For B2B prospecting we use legally sound, staged contact concepts to systematically and compliantly obtain legally required consents (opt-ins) for further communication.

Question 14

We already have a partner or an existing solution — why switch?

Accepted Answer

We hear this often. The difference: we deliver a dedicated, AI-powered outbound infrastructure with a performance guarantee — no generic templates. If your current solution is not delivering the desired results, start risk-free with our pilot (incl. 5-replies guarantee) and compare performance directly.

Question 15

We want to test internally first — why start externally now?

Accepted Answer

Understandable. The reality: an internal outbound setup needs 3–6 months ramp-up (tools, processes, learnings). Our pilot delivers first qualified replies in 2–4 weeks — with a guarantee. You can build internally in parallel and use our results as a benchmark. No risk thanks to the 5-replies guarantee.

Question 16

Is the ROI worth it at our budget?

Accepted Answer

The pilot costs €3,900. With an average deal value of €20,000 you need just one single close for a 5x ROI. Our benchmarks show 2–4 new customers per 1,000 leads. Use our ROI calculator on the page to run through your concrete business case.

Question 17

My manager/board still needs to approve — how do I sell this internally?

Accepted Answer

We actively support you: you receive a ready-made decision-maker deck, a one-pager with ROI calculation, and on request a short call with your decision-making body. This lets you present the business case internally in a clear and compelling way — without having to justify the agency selection yourself.

Question 18

The timing is not right — can we start later?

Accepted Answer

Of course. But consider: every month without systematic outbound is lost deals. Our pilot is deliberately designed as a low-risk entry point — €3,900 with a replies guarantee. We are happy to hold your slot for a specific start date.

Question 19

We would rather solve this internally — why do we need an external solution?

Accepted Answer

An internal outbound team means: recruiting (3–6 months), tool costs (€1,500–3,000/month), ramp-up time and turnover risk. Our engine delivers results from week 2, without fixed personnel costs. Many clients use us as a bridge until their internal team is ready — or permanently as a scaling channel.

Question 20

Our target audience is very niche — does outbound work for us?

Accepted Answer

Especially with niche target audiences, precise targeting is key. In the pilot we analyse your ICP together and validate the volume. If the audience is too small, we are transparent — and you only pay for the pilot. With sufficient volume, niche campaigns often deliver above-average reply rates.

Question 21

We have a large, custom project (>€40K) — can you handle that?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but with an adapted process. For enterprise projects we offer a tailored discovery workshop, dedicated account management and individual playbooks. Still, start with the pilot to validate the collaboration and first results before you scale.
