Challenges & Scope

ICP: The core of Pitch Media's target market is decision-makers (DMs) in medium-sized businesses making over 8 million dollars in revenue annually. At the center of these decision-makers are Pitch Media's "dream" clients.

Product: Video production and digital marketing packages that range from a basic (one-time) launch to a 12-month agreement that includes a full suite of popular, marketable deliverables.

CIENCE Technologies coordinates the lead generation efforts for Pitch Media. After researching appropriate industries and clients, they conduct cold-outreach campaigns.

The ICP filter
Over $8M revenue Decision-maker One vertical Dream clients Only fits reached Full target market
Pitch Media's list was not the whole market. CIENCE narrowed it to decision-makers at medium-sized businesses over $8M in revenue, inside one vertical, so outreach only ever reached a fit.

Why CIENCE

"I highly recommend them," to Justin Lautermilch, Pitch Media Marketing Director

In January 2020, this marketing agency deployed CIENCE's outbound marketing efforts as a tool to sell the video and marketing expertise of its Founder/President. Passion, first and foremost, was at the frontline of the campaign, meant to connect with B2B/B2C end-users, and to partner with the top, local marketing, and advertising agencies.

"I managed our relationship with CIENCE as an outside agency working on generating our company leads," says Justin Lautermilch, Marketing Director. "It was a joy working with them."
Fit before volume
Passion for health Pitch Media's brand Vertical research CIENCE finds the field Fit Businesses close to the brand Where outreach landed
The campaign only worked inside Pitch Media's own passion: health and active-lifestyle brands. CIENCE researched each vertical first, so cold outreach landed on businesses close to that brand, not a wider net.

Results

It was important to stay within the chosen vertical; to find experts in the field, and work with businesses close to Pitch Media's brand of passion. From hundreds of outbound emails delivered, many calls were successfully fielded and several qualified leads were delivered to all on budget.

"They did a fantastic job and delivered everything we asked of them," says Lautermilch. "I am very happy to have worked with them. They are a very professional company, and I highly recommend them."
