Proof-Led Outbound

Campaign Overview

This campaign led with proof: a real, anonymised before and after from someone in a similar position.

What I Built

• Proof, Not a Pitch — the opener shared a before and after from someone in a similar position instead of describing the service
• A Free Gift Instead of a Meeting Ask — every email offered something useful for free, an easy yes for a busy decision-maker

Key Metrics

• The Opener Did the Work — the first email went to 737 leads, drew 15 replies and generated all 3 opportunities
• The Bump Added Replies — the second email went to 274 leads and drew 1 more reply
• The Last Follow-up — sent to 112 leads, 1 more reply
• More Replies — 7 more replies came in after the last email, for 24 in total
• Pipeline Value Generated — 3 opportunities at $5,000 each, a total of $15,000 generated

Past results do not guarantee future results. Individual outcomes vary based on industry, offer, and implementation. Pipeline value is the estimated value of open opportunities, not closed revenue.
