Challenges

After raising their Series A round, the leadership at Retraced were looking to scale their lead generation efforts using high impact, high value campaigns. Their innovative blockchain based solution had it's first customers but there was a lack of awareness in the market among their audience.

Retraced were looking to acquire new clients in Europe and the US. They were hiring new sales reps and needed a consistent way to generate new leads monthly. They had a large focus on SEO to drive inbound leads previously but it was not enough and they wanted to be more proactive. Their team tried outbound outreach but did not secure the results they were looking for.

Solutions

We focused on companies with 500 employees all the way to 10,000 employees in the retail sector across Europe and North America. FMCG and fashion & apparel brands were the sweet spot.

In collaboration with the client, we meticulously identified ICPs, focusing on decision-makers and stakeholders such as:

  • Head of Supply Chain
  • Head of Sustainability
  • Head of ESG & CSR
  • Head of Innovation

In the larger companies, we also targeted manager level titles to improve chances of acceptance and success. We went with a multichannel approach, utilizing both LinkedIn and email, for outreach. Our team bought domains and email addresses, warmed them up for 3 weeks and started with email. We deployed 3 optimized LinkedIn profiles to the campaign.

Our team created multiple campaigns targeting the different departments we were focusing on, each with specific messaging resonating with those department heads.
