📌 “Qualified replies” = relevant, decision-making leads from our ICP

We launched a multi-phase outreach campaign using LinkedIn and cold email. Here’s how we executed it step-by-step:

✅ Phase 1: Initial LinkedIn Outreach

We began with a 15-day LinkedIn outreach trial targeting housekeeping and facility managers in industrial plants.

  • Tools used: LinkedIn Helper for automation

  • 1,265 total tasks → 640 invites → 156 accepted connections

  • Personalized messages based on company type

  • Manual follow-up with all accepted leads

📈 Results:

  • Initial traction with replies and positive conversations

  • 2 opportunity calls within the first month

✅ Phase 2: New Avatars + Structured Follow-ups

Based on insights, we introduced two new avatars:

  • Avatar 2: Property & Facility Managers of Commercial Buildings

  • Avatar 3: Industrial Plant Admins & Safety Officers

Once each campaign hit 300+ accepted connections, we triggered automated follow-up sequences — significantly improving reply and qualification rates.

✅ Phase 3: Offer Expansion + ICP Alignment

During review meetings, the client decided to focus heavily on facility and housekeeping services and expand into new verticals.

New campaigns launched:

  1. Facility Managers – Pharma Companies

  2. Owners & Builders – Commercial Properties

  3. HR Heads – 150+ Employee Companies (Ahmedabad)

     

🎯 We localized campaigns and further refined messaging/offers. These campaigns aligned with our Zero-Budget B2B Lead Generation Strategy to enhance relevance and ROI.

Parallel Email Outreach Strategy:

We procured 5 new domains and set up 15 mailboxes, warming them up over 3 weeks using Snov.io.

  • Created 3 subject line variations

  • Client provided databases for segmented targeting

📩 Results:

ROI & Performance Comparison

Channel Traditional Agency Approach Our Outreach Campaign
Lead Quality Mixed, often junior roles ICP-aligned decision makers
Cost per Lead ₹4,000–₹7,000+ ₹800–₹1,200 (Avg.)
Control Limited (agency dependent) Full control via dashboards
Speed 6–8 weeks for first traction Qualified replies in 2–3 weeks
Volume Low and inconsistent 63 qualified replies in 4 months

By leveraging our B2B Lead Generation Services and outreach frameworks, we consistently delivered qualified leads at a lower cost.

Insights & Key Learnings

  • Follow-up Sequences Outperform Cold First Touches: Qualified replies spiked once we activated follow-up campaigns for accepted connections.

  • Localized Messaging Converts Better: Campaigns targeting Ahmedabad HR heads and commercial property managers yielded higher positive replies when city/location was mentioned.

  • LinkedIn Works Best with Volume + Personalization: Response rate improved when personalized intro lines were based on industry and company size.

  • Warm Mailboxes = Email Results: Investing in domain warming and inbox reputation early led to higher open and click-through rates by July.

  • Offer Clarity Drives Conversion: Campaigns with specific, problem-solving offers (e.g., deep cleaning before audits) had higher lead interest.

Conclusion:

With a phased, data-driven approach — from ICP mapping to domain-warmed email outreach , we helped the client build consistent visibility and traction among B2B decision-makers in their industry.

By applying proven B2B lead generation strategies and refining our execution weekly, we helped this facility management company build a cost-effective, scalable lead pipeline in less than 4 months.
