Frequently asked questions

Why do digital marketing agencies struggle with their own lead generation?+

Because client work always comes first. Agencies are excellent at marketing for clients but rarely have dedicated capacity to prospect for themselves, which is exactly the gap an outsourced program fills.

Is cold calling more effective than cold email?+

Neither wins on its own. Phone reaches buyers who ignore email and email reaches buyers who never pick up. A coordinated program uses both against the same target list.
