Generating new customers

We can offer you lead generation in a new region. It can be especially helpful when:

  • Your projects are too complicated to be distributed via sales channels
  • You need to understand the feedback from the market, using a direct approach to end-users
  • You want to help your resellers with prospective leads

In this case, after a short training period, we may act as a part of your company for:

  • Contacting potential clients
  • Identifying regional business opportunities
  • Arranging meetings for detailed technical discussions
  • Coordinating sales processes and closing deals

With our help, you’ll have direct access to projects, tenders and potential clients in the region where we operate.

Representing your company

Developing a business in the new region is a complex task that includes a lot of supporting activities in addition to lead generation. However, the market might still be too unstable to establish a local legal entity and recruit full-time staff. After a short training period, we can provide:

  • A dedicated project manager to represent your company’s interests in the region
  • A senior manager for project coordination and control, as well as for key account management
  • A dedicated direct phone line exclusively for your company
  • A shelf for marketing materials, local production and distribution of marketing materials
  • Covering all the daily communications with your prospective partners, established partners, customers and sub-contractors
  • A proactive approach to changes in the local market

Our dedicated project manager and senior manager will become part of your corporate team.

We work on an hourly basis, with a minimum of 30 recommended hours per month.
