Customer challenges/context

Locky wanted to build its sales pipeline from scratch. When they came to us, they had no prospect list, no CRM and not enough outbound sales experience to structure the strategy internally.

The mission

  • We determined Locky's target market and identified 5 relevant sectors for an initial campaign: local authorities, universities, sports clubs, coworking spaces and franchised supermarkets
  • We then built the lead list: 286 qualified companies across these 5 sectors. For each organisation, we identified the most relevant decision-maker, such as a mobility manager, CEO or managing director.
  • Using the devlo method, our team created 26 data points per prospect, including an ultra-personalised icebreaker. The icebreaker is the first sentence of the first email. The more precisely it connects to a prospect's LinkedIn profile or company website, the more likely it is to trigger curiosity and a positive response.
  • Using the latest best practices from previous campaigns, we built a multichannel prospecting campaign. The sequence defined how each prospect would be approached across 8 touches, combining emails, LinkedIn messages and phone calls. Each step had a clear role: build context, nurture interest and encourage the prospect to meet Locky.
  • Once Locky had validated the lead list and the sequence, we loaded the prospects into the campaign and launched outreach. devlo then managed follow-up across email, LinkedIn and phone to generate as many discovery calls as possible.
  • devlo also handled discovery calls and converted qualified conversations into customer demonstrations. The goal was to book qualified appointments between these prospects and Locky.
  • We also set up a personalised CRM and defined the sales process
  • Throughout our collaboration, Locky has been able to benefit from our experience and expertise through various coaching sessions on the content of the sales deck, pricing and all stages of the sales process

Our results

  • 286 companies contacted
  • 40 companies interested
  • 20 discovery calls
  • 15 demonstrations planned

Key findings

  • Best ICP: municipalities
  • Worst KPIs (no longer to be contacted): franchised shops
  • ICPs to continue prospecting: universities, sports clubs and coworking spaces
  • The existing fee structure was not adapted to all KPIs
  • Not having a Sales deck to share by e-mail or after a phone call was a handicap
