About the Client

Our client is a fast-growing SaaS company specializing in cloud-based collaboration tools for mid-sized enterprises. With a strong reputation in the information technology sector, they serve over 1,000 businesses globally, empowering teams to work smarter, faster, and more securely. The client’s focus on delivering seamless digital transformation solutions has positioned them as an industry leader in next-generation workspaces.

The Challenge

Despite their advanced technology and seasoned sales team, the client struggled to consistently attract and qualify high-intent prospects within their key markets. While interest in their platform was significant, the team faced difficulties in translating this demand into meaningful sales opportunities.

Key Pain Points

➡ Inconsistent pipeline of qualified sales appointments

➡ Low conversion from cold leads to active prospects

➡ Difficulty reaching decision-makers in target regions (North America & EMEA)

➡ Need for improved lead qualification and nurturing

➡ Limited insight into campaign ROI and performance tracking

Our Solution: Ciente.io Appointment Setting

To address these challenges, we implemented the Ciente.io Appointment Setting Solution—a multi-layered approach designed to deliver appointment-ready leads straight into the client’s sales funnel.

Strategy & Approach

➡ ICP (Ideal Customer Profile) Development: Worked closely with client stakeholders to define robust ICPs, focusing on sector, company size, and critical tech pain points.

➡ Data-Driven List Building: Leveraged proprietary databases and third-party sources to build high-quality lists of relevant decision-makers (IT Directors, CIOs, Operations Managers).

Personalized Multi-Channel Outreach:

➡ Developed a series of tailored landing pages and custom drip email campaigns.

➡ Implemented intent-based ABM (Account-Based Marketing) using content syndication and LinkedIn outreach.

➡ Supported with sales enablement assets, including case studies and demo videos.

➡ Lead Qualification & Scoring: Applied BANT (Budget, Authority, Need, Timeline) criteria to vet prospects before proceeding to appointment booking.

➡ Appointment Scheduling & Sales Alignment: Coordinated seamless handoff of qualified appointments to the client’s in-house sales team, integrating directly into their CRM.

➡ Optimization & Reporting: Provided weekly analytics dashboards highlighting campaign performance, lead sources, and ROI to enable data-driven optimizations.

Customization Highlights

➡ Hyper-focused on geo-targeting (separately optimizing messaging for North America and EMEA).

➡ Leveraged content such as podcasts and tailored blog posts to warm up leads pre-outreach.

➡ Regular re-calibration calls with the client to adapt ICP and outreach as the market evolved.

Results

➡ Within 90 days of campaign initiation, the following outcomes were achieved:

➡ Qualified Appointments Scheduled: 135

➡ New Leads Generated: 420

➡ Appointment Show Rate: 78%

➡ Lead-to-Opportunity Conversion: 36%

➡ Expected Revenue Pipeline: $850,000

➡ Client’s Sales Cycle Reduced By: 24%

Impact Summary

The detailed analytics and ongoing feedback empowered the client to replicate campaign success in new regions and verticals, supporting their ambitious growth targets.
