Software Leadgen Outbound and authority for software companies

The handoff is where software pipeline goes cold.

Most software companies grow through people who already know them. Partners, former customers, the conference circuit. It works well, right up to the quarter it stops.

We build the channels you never switched on and run them until they produce real conversations. Each one reaches your sellers with everything we learned attached. When the engine holds up, we hand the whole thing to you.

The situationA network is not a system

Good products, good relationships, one way in.

Most software companies we meet have a product worth buying. Almost all of their new business arrives through relationships. A partner mentions them. A happy user changes jobs and brings them along. Someone stops at the booth.

None of that is wrong. It just cannot be turned up when the plan asks for more.

There are four ways to reach a buyer who has never heard of you: outbound, content, referrals and paid. Most companies run one of them well and leave the rest dark. The cause is rarely effort. Nobody was ever given the job of building the others.

A common starting position. One channel carries the company and the other three were never built.
Our viewTwo handoffs, designed from the start

We plan the work around two moments where value usually leaks.

The first handoff is the buyer. When someone replies with interest, your seller should not meet a stranger. They get a short brief: who this person is, why we wrote to them, what we said, what they said back, and what they seem to care about. The conversation picks up where it left off.

The second handoff is the engine. Everything we build belongs to you. Once the channels are producing pipeline, we pass across the playbook, the data, the sequences and the reasoning behind them, and we train the people on your side who will run it. You are not renting a system from us. You keep it.

Two handoffs A buyer conversation passes from our desk to your seller with its context. Later the whole engine passes to your team. Our desk a buyer, with the research attached Your seller The engine playbook, data, sequences, training Your team
The same principle twice: nothing reaches your side without the context that makes it useful.
How the work runsRead, design, run, hand over

Read

We start with your buyers, the channels you run today and the deals you already won. We agree a baseline with you before anything goes out, so progress is judged against where you began.

Design

Outbound is usually the core. Around it sits an authority layer: press, short video, and a site that answers the questions buyers ask before they will talk to sales.

Run

Every outbound message is researched and written for one real person, and a human reads it before it goes. We reach out where there is a genuine reason to, and stop the moment someone asks.

Hand over

When the channels hold up on their own, they move to your team with the training to keep them that way. You own it.

The shortlistSearch and answer engines

Software buyers now ask an AI assistant for a shortlist before they ask a colleague. If the answer engines cannot find a clear statement of what you do and who it is for, you are left off the list, however good the product is.

We do the search work and write the content that makes you easy to find and quote. It is the quiet part of the job, and it keeps paying back after the handover.

What we will not doWhere we draw lines
  • Write to people we have not read about. Volume without a reason is noise, and buyers can tell.
  • Promise you a figure before we have seen your market. We agree the baseline first and report against it.
  • Keep the keys. The accounts, the data and the documents sit with you the whole way through.
