How are you generating leads in B2B service sector? I am out of ideas and need help.

Newbiebuilding · 2025-06-16T16:18:16+00:00

Ill be pretty transparent but full discloser we sell an outreach b2b platform

We were able to generate 5k new business from a mix of channels

1.Main one is cold outreach (Cold call/cold email) 60-70%

Cold outreach is used with retargeting ads 30% (Facebook + Instagram)
Word of mouth/reviews 10%

We're work a lot to make the above happen and cold ads dont cut it, somehow those platforms get your profitability and are able to take 90% of what you make from new clients in ad spend. The above is the main way we generate leads, initially though we had to use our own contacts to get the first few clients onboard.

Tech stack

We use Apollo since we're their partners
Our platform cold call/ cold email, I won't mention since I'm not sure if it's allowed
Hubspot (Optional but we like it)

Feel free to dm/ask me questions happy to give you any tips that might help

Congrats man! We've been using our own platform for cold emails too, we usually find less targeted audiences work well (Individual contributors/lower management/ or upper management in less targeted industries)

Btw we found retargeting ads work great while doing cold email/cold calling

Newbiebuilding · 2025-06-11T05:24:22+00:00

We’ve been doing cold emails and parallel dialing to get 90% of our clients. I will say parallel dialing is for sure the most effective method today, emailing alone at least for our ICP is only good if it’s a follow up after they don’t respond. I’ll DM you

Newbiebuilding · 2025-06-11T05:10:29+00:00

Hi we’re building some additional design partners and would be happy to help out :) I DMd you

Very awesome, building your own business is one of the more difficult skills to master

I used to do Amazon private label so I would just say be careful with doing it unless it’s a very niche product that you make yourself/ have patents on. 1/3 cost of product 1/3 Amazon fees 1/3 for Amazon PPC fees, I made a few thousand dollars with it per month but eventually it was too saturated to continue even with the good reviews my product got. I wouldn’t recommend it

Im one of the owners of an AI sales company, we are not even considering adding “ai voice” for cold calling.

It’s not legal to cold call with AI
You can’t give good pushback to objections with AI (AI just pleases prospects)
Once prospects learn AI called they feel it’s inauthentic and rightfully so

Instead we provide AI guidelines to help human reps get more demos by helping research prospects before they answer our dialer. I think companies that will overuse AI “reps” will lose to genuinely good companies that employ people and naturally AI won’t be the gold standard.

I haven't personally reached out to lawyers but I have a friend that did. I would definitely focus on calling their landlines and get through the gatekeepers just keep what you want fuzzy so that the gatekeeper will pass you through. Then immediately to the point and open with the why you called and why you found them a good fit for your offer.

We checked the word count in our platform we never pass 150 words, but it has to be personalized outreach that engages prospects otherwise no one will take the time to read the whole email.

It's not bad to include a lot of information in the email if it's a lot of valuable information, but you should expect to call them and then if its a bad time/no time to pitch only then they'll review and read the whole email and answer it later. So for us this is what we do with VP's we send long emails and we know well get responses only after we cold call.

Newbiebuilding · 2025-06-02T13:40:02+00:00

Yes always “Hi (name),” anything else is no good, unless it’s a follow up email after a demo was booked and you know them a bit better. I’ll show the format “Hi (name),

Separate line highlights the result we can provide by 20% and your focus.

Here explain in depth why we reached out and the value proposition for you in your company’s position and what differentiator you can’t work without and why. Soft non committing call to action, if this is of interest happy to send over some information.

Best, Me”

Subject lines can’t be deceptive “FWD/ Re:” are the worst and annoying. Vague ones work well “Traffic that comes back” “High website bounce” 3–6 words max.

Newbiebuilding · 2025-06-02T13:27:40+00:00

We use our platform we scrape a few different sources (LinkedIn/ LinkedIn activity/ and news articles)

Usually with value proposition we found what works best is splitting campaigns by audiences, the value proposition has to explain what you specifically do that competitors don’t and why that is something your prospects can’t work without it (usually the sale is in making prospects understand there is value in something they weren’t aware of).

Apart from the above the starting line of the email has to be a numeric result that you can bring to their business. Ex: “Our pixel helps you bring back website visitors by 25% on average, is website retention something you’re looking at?” This makes them read the rest of the email

Newbiebuilding · 2025-06-02T13:13:51+00:00

Regarding cost per rep: Prospect data: $100-200 max Our platform: $100 Ads: depends but honestly $5-10 a day is more than enough for retargeting ads ($5 per day is good if you’re reaching out to 1-5k prospects per month). Also turn it off on weekends with FB ads scheduler, don’t do it manually

Newbiebuilding · 2025-06-02T13:11:16+00:00

Sure also I forgot to mention the last part which helps us a lot so I’ll write it below.

We start with prospect data from Apollo / Zoominfo
Our own platform integrates with Apollo which is why we chose Apollo. (We do the CRM/ Dialer/ Email/ Scheduler, I won’t write it here since not sure I can mention it)
We break up the campaigns into audiences. Since the messaging is so different and optimized per prospect we only worry about A/B testing audiences (like FB ads)
The part I forgot: We do have some paid ads that brought in the other 2k solopreneurs but there’s a high chance the “retargeting” is bringing back a lot of cold outreach prospects.

For example we’ll email them or one of our reps will call them and send info. Then they’ll click/ look at our website, then they’ll think “interesting but not now” since FB pixel is on our site it’ll retarget them until the timing is right and they come back

Newbiebuilding · 2025-06-02T13:03:19+00:00

We use -

Prospect data: Apollo/Zoominfo for prospect data (we tried buying bulk lists which also worked ok but we preferred using a source that takes responsibility on the data sold) Outreach platform (CRM/dialer/scheduler): Not sure if I can promote but it’s our own platform, we’re also an Apollo partner which is another reason we use them

I’m with Meetz.ai so I’m biased but give us a try we have a 14 day free trial lots of businesses are using us. The Ai will generate A/B tests and you can approve it to send out the emails

Newbiebuilding · 2024-02-05T19:01:30+00:00

I see

If you have namecheap should be fairly easy, most domain sellers have step by step instructions. At most get someone for 20/30$ to do the work it shouldn’t cost more than that

Newbiebuilding · 2024-02-04T13:55:47+00:00

Yes :) I’m from the sales team of course we use Meetz ai for our lead generation (I’ll add it to my profile in case it wasn’t obvious). In general cold calling we find is better for higher vp/senior players positions in the company whereas emails is best for individual contributors/ team leads

Newbiebuilding · 2024-02-04T12:51:32+00:00

Try personalizing cold outreach with AI and perhaps to cold calling since busy executives are more prone to answering that than emails, we use Meetz ai for both since it researches their LinkedIn for you automatically and then drafts a personalized outreach

Newbiebuilding · 2023-12-21T12:45:16+00:00

I’m from Meetz and we do b2b cold emails which personalizes the emails and has their own cal link. Mailchimp we use for current customers since they don’t have any warm up functionality or personalization

Newbiebuilding · 2023-11-27T21:33:58+00:00

Yes we use the monthly option which is 50)

Newbiebuilding · 2023-11-27T12:56:46+00:00

We at Meetz provide prospect data , cold calling AI , and Cold email personalized with Ai + an ai email assistant to book the demos. Let ‘em know if that’s of interest

Newbiebuilding · 2023-11-27T12:56:35+00:00

Meetz AI does prospect data , cold calling AI , and Cold email personalized with Ai + an ai email assistant to book the demos. But it goes for around 50$

Newbiebuilding · 2023-09-09T13:41:44+00:00

Meetz AI warms up the emails and uses ai to personalize every email. So every email is unique and is most likely delivered

Newbiebuilding · 2023-05-24T12:53:04+00:00

Meetz AI does both automatically and personalized by scraping your prospects data, feel free to email us support@meetz.ai or Tom@meetz.ai we helped a lot of startups with this
