Follow-up takes hours
Speed to lead is one of the strongest predictors of conversion. We route and alert in minutes.
We bring in enquiries from people likely to buy, qualify them, get them to sales in minutes, and count the deals.
A lead generation agency brings you enquiries from people likely to buy. Ads, search, content and outbound reach them; landing pages and forms capture them; qualification, routing and fast follow-up get them to sales; and every closed deal is tracked back to its source. The test is deals, not form fills.
It’s the front end of our gtm engineering work, and you can see all services in one place.
| Inbound | Outbound | |
|---|---|---|
| How it starts | The buyer searches, clicks an ad or finds your content | We reach the buyer first, on a signal that they may need you |
| Channels | Google, Meta and LinkedIn ads, SEO, content, WhatsApp | Email, LinkedIn and calls to a defined account list |
| Fits best | Buyers already search for what you sell | Few, large buyers and long sales cycles |
| What can go wrong | Cheap clicks that never become buyers, if nobody qualifies them | Messages ignored, and a list that is stale or shared with competitors |
| How we use it | Capture intent that exists, then qualify and route it fast | Reach the few accounts that matter, on a real reason to talk |
Start with a definition your sales team signs off: who fits, what they need, how soon. Forms and chat ask those questions, scoring sends the best leads to a rep within minutes, and when deals close, the result goes back to Google and Meta as offline conversions, so the ads learn to find buyers, not form-fillers.
Sales and marketing agree fit, need and timing, and write them down: that is what makes a lead qualified (an SQL, not just an MQL). Forms and chat ask for them, and the score picks the rep and the speed.
A reply within minutes and a meeting booked. Every stage, owner and outcome is logged in your CRM, so nothing sits unanswered and nothing is lost between teams.
Won or lost, the result is recorded against the lead and its source: the campaign, the keyword or the outreach sequence. Cost per deal becomes something you can read, not guess.
The outcome goes back to Google Ads and Meta as an offline conversion, so bidding follows buyers rather than clicks, and the next leads look more like the ones who closed.
Speed to lead is one of the strongest predictors of conversion. We route and alert in minutes.
Marketing counts form fills, sales wants buyers. We write the criteria together first.
Five jobs, in the order a lead travels. Each has deliverables you can check.
Before any campaign runs, we sit with your sales team and write down who a good lead is.
Ads, search and outbound each reach a different buyer. We pick the mix by deal size and market, and run the paid side through Google Ads and our performance marketing team.
Forms and chat ask a few questions that tell buyers from browsers. Answers are scored, and spam and junk never reach a rep.
Each qualified lead reaches the right rep with an alert, a WhatsApp or email follow-up and a booking link, set up through crm & marketing automation.
We follow each lead from first click to closed deal, so you see what a qualified lead costs, what a deal costs, and where leads drop out.
Where leads are captured, enriched, routed and counted. Ad accounts, CRM and forms stay in your name.
Paid, search and video.
Target lists built from signals, not bought.
Your CRM and messaging, wired together.
Source of every lead, down to the deal.
Counting form fills as success. Cheap enquiries that sales can’t use make cost per lead look good while cost per deal climbs, and the ad platforms learn to find more of the same. The fix is to define a qualified lead with your sales team first, follow up in minutes, and judge every campaign on closed deals.
It’s why we start with the definition and the follow-up, not the ad account.
| The common way | What we do instead | |
|---|---|---|
| The goal | The cheapest lead | A qualified lead, and the cost per deal |
| Follow-up | Whenever someone checks the inbox | Alerts, routing and a first reply in minutes |
| Feedback to ads | The platform counts form fills | Closed deals sent back as offline conversions |
| Records | The agency’s reports and accounts | Your accounts and your CRM, from day one |
Cost per qualified lead: what you spend to bring in a lead your sales team accepts as a fit. Beside it, every Monday, from your CRM: lead-to-meeting rate, meeting-to-deal rate and cost per closed deal. Form fills are counted but never celebrated alone. If meetings booked is your number, we report that.

It rewards cheap junk. A low cost per lead can hide a high cost per deal.
Volume without fit just gives your sales team more to sort.
Start from what a closed deal is worth to you, work back to a target cost per qualified lead, and spend only what that number can carry. Our fee depends on your market, your deal size and how many channels we run, so we price after the audit. Before you commit, you see the target and the sums behind it.

Outcomes go back to the ad platforms, and budget moves to what closes.
Ask how they define a qualified lead, who owns the ad accounts and data, how fast leads are followed up, and which number they report. A good agency answers in terms of your sales team and your CRM, not their own dashboards, and agrees the number before spending your budget.
| Ask them | A good answer sounds like |
|---|---|
| How do you define a qualified lead? | We write the criteria with your sales team first, and score every lead against them. |
| Who owns the accounts and data? | You do: ad accounts, CRM, forms and lists, from day one. |
| How fast is follow-up? | Alerts and a first reply in minutes, with routing to the right rep. |
| What do you report? | Cost per qualified lead and per deal, from your own CRM, every week. |
| Do you sell lists? | No. Leads come from your own campaigns, pages and outbound. |

Not a fitIf you want a bought contact list, or a lead count promised before anyone looks at your numbers, we’re the wrong fit. We don’t sell lists, and a forecast without your data is a guess.
An MQL, a marketing qualified lead, has shown interest, for example by downloading a guide. An SQL, a sales qualified lead, has been checked against fit, need and timing and is ready for a sales conversation. Most teams argue because they never agreed where that line sits. We write it down first, then score every lead against it.
B2B lead generation is bringing in enquiries from other businesses: the people who evaluate or sign off a purchase. Cycles are longer, there are several decision-makers and deals are larger, so each lead matters more. That’s why we qualify on fit, need and timing, mix inbound with outbound, and track every lead to a closed deal in your CRM.
Google Search Console shows what buyers search for, GA4 shows where leads come from, and Google Business Profile brings in local enquiries. Free CRM tiers from HubSpot and Zoho can hold your leads. Tools only help if someone follows up quickly and a definition of a qualified lead exists, so we set those up before adding anything paid.
Whatever your sales team agrees: fit, need and timing. Fit is whether they’re the kind of customer you want, need is whether they have the problem you solve, and timing is whether they plan to act soon. We write those criteria down together in the first two weeks, then score every lead against them.
Usually both, weighted by deal size and market. A high-ticket B2B sale with a short list of target accounts leans on outbound and LinkedIn. A business people already search for leans on Google and Meta. We start from your numbers: who buys, how long it takes, and where those buyers already look.
No. We don’t sell or rent lists. We build a lead flow for your business from your own campaigns, pages and outbound, and the leads, data and ad accounts belong to you from day one. Bought lists tend to be stale, shared with competitors and risky under email consent rules, so we avoid them.
No. Generating leads is legal. What’s regulated is how you contact people: consent and opt-out rules such as CAN-SPAM in the US, CASL in Canada, GDPR where it applies and India’s DPDP Act, plus calling registries. We use opt-in forms and honest sourcing and keep records. This is not legal advice; check with your counsel.
Minutes, not hours. Response time is one of the strongest predictors of conversion, and a buyer who enquired with three firms will usually talk to whoever replies first. We set up instant alerts, routing to the right rep and an automatic WhatsApp or email reply, so the first touch never waits for someone to check an inbox.
We set a target after the audit, based on your market, your budget and your definition of a qualified lead. We won’t quote a figure before looking at your numbers, because a number without them is a guess. The target is written down, and every Monday report shows how close you are to it.
Yes. We set up the system: routing, calendars and booking links, so a qualified lead can pick a slot straight away and your rep gets the invite. Your team holds the conversation. For outbound, we can run sequences that end in a booked meeting, tracked from the first message to the closed deal.
Yours. We work in HubSpot, Zoho, Salesforce and others, and we build in your account, so the data stays with you. If you don’t have one yet, we help you pick a simple one first, because cost per deal can’t be measured without a record of every lead and what happened to it.
Yes. Campaigns run in local time zones, outreach follows local rules such as CASL in Canada and CAN-SPAM in the US, and the copy is written for each market’s buyers, not translated from another. Our team is in Chennai, and reviews are planned around your hours.
