THE CHALLENGE

Where they were stuck

Closify connected agencies with pre-vetted, commission-only sales closers. Before Outbound System, they had burned over $200K on two SDR hires in 18 months, each taking 4+ months to ramp and peaking at 6 to 8 meetings per month before leaving.

Previous SDR hiring attempts failed to generate consistent meetings.

Agency buyers are skeptical of recruiting pitches that sound like every other vendor.

Closify needed ROI proof fast, not a long ramp on internal headcount.

THE SYSTEM WE BUILT

How we solved their problems

Replace failed SDR prospecting

Instead of asking Closify to hire and ramp a third rep, Outbound System took over prospecting entirely. Signal-based targeting identified agencies actively feeling the hiring pain: adding new service lines, expanding client rosters, or posting sales roles on job boards. Those signals meant revenue was scaling faster than their ability to hire closers.

Message to agency operators precisely

The commission-only model sounded too good to be true, so the messaging stopped describing it and started proving the math: hiring, training, and managing an in-house rep runs $75K to $120K a year with a 4-month ramp, versus deploying a proven closer through Closify in days. LinkedIn engagement with agency founders' content built recognition before the pitch, and AI cold calling covered the largest agencies.

Prove ROI with revenue, not activity

Over 11 months the campaign delivered 572 qualified leads, 95 booked meetings with a 79% show-up rate, and $285K in direct revenue on $19,800 of total spend. That is a 1,339% ROI, against the $200K+ previously burned on SDR hires that never produced consistent pipeline.

Outbound System rebuilt Closify's outbound from scratch with two key changes. First, messaging shifted from feature-based to economics-based. Instead of explaining what Closify does, campaigns led with the math: 'You're spending $75-120K/year on an in-house rep who takes 4 months to ramp and might leave in 14. Here's what that costs versus deploying a proven closer in 7 days.'

Second, targeting moved to signal-based prospecting. Six-source verified prospect lists identified agencies actively adding service lines, expanding rosters, or posting sales roles on job boards. This meant reaching agencies at the exact moment they were feeling the hiring pain.

Over 11 months, the campaign delivered 572 qualified leads, 95 booked meetings with a 79% show-up rate, and $285K in direct revenue. Total spend was $19,800 versus the $200K+ burned on two failed SDR hires. That's a 1,339% ROI and $25,909 in new MRR added.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about this case study, answered.

What ROI did Closify see from Outbound System?

1,339%. The campaign generated $285K in revenue and $25,909 in new MRR on $19,800 of total spend, after Closify had burned more than $200K on two failed SDR hires that peaked at 6 to 8 meetings per month.

How did the campaign overcome buyer skepticism?

With math instead of claims. The commission-only model sounded too good to be true, so messaging led with the cost comparison: $75K to $120K a year to hire and ramp an in-house rep, versus a proven closer deployed in days. The economics did the selling.

How many meetings did Closify book?

95 meetings in 11 months with a 79% show-up rate, drawn from 572 qualified leads and an average of 52 qualified replies per month.

Strategy

Med Profit Lab is a McAllen, TX-based care management enablement firm that helps medical practices, ACOs, and health systems design and implement Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) and Chronic Care Management (CCM) programs. Reaching practice owners and ACO leaders means breaking through to a notoriously protective audience. Practice owners get cold-pitched constantly by RPM vendors, billing companies, and consultants, so the bar for getting attention was high from the first message. Targeting focused on independent and multi-provider practices in chronic-care-heavy specialties (primary care, cardiology, endocrinology, nephrology) plus ACO and health system leadership, segmented by patient panel size and current care management maturity. Email infrastructure was set up with 350+ Microsoft inboxes across 9 domains to ensure deliverability into healthcare inboxes that filter aggressively. Outreach led with MPL's specific model (phased enablement not outsourcing, flat monthly fee with no revenue share, in-house program ownership) anchored in concrete revenue-per-patient outcomes rather than generic consulting pitches. In the first 30 days, the campaign produced 36 qualified leads with practice owners Randy had been trying to reach for years, with 27 of those leads converting to actual sales meetings.

Strategy

Value Buddy needed to reach Fractional CFOs and financial advisors, a sophisticated audience that sees through generic outreach instantly. These are people who evaluate businesses for a living, so our messaging had to be sharp and substantiated. We built prospect lists through multi-source enrichment, cross-referencing advisory firm databases, LinkedIn activity, and professional certifications to identify active practitioners (not semi-retired consultants with outdated profiles). Segmentation separated Fractional CFOs from traditional advisors because they buy differently: CFOs care about speed and workflow integration, advisors care about client-ready outputs and regulatory defensibility. Messaging for each track led with Value Buddy's core differentiator, fast, accurate valuations that hold up under scrutiny, and was tuned to each segment's specific use case. Cold email was the primary channel, with send timing optimized around financial services work patterns (early morning, mid-week). Infrastructure ran through a private Azure U.S. IP to maintain inbox placement with enterprise email filters. LinkedIn outreach targeted the same prospects with engagement around valuation methodology and financial advisory content. AI cold calling added a direct touchpoint for high-value advisory firms where a 60-second conversation about valuation workflow could quickly qualify interest. The campaign booked 70 qualified meetings and closed 12 deals over four months, while cutting the time Value Buddy's team spent on manual prospecting by a significant margin.
