01
The challenge
An established B2B medical device company needed a dependable way to reach a narrow, high-value buyer universe. Acquisition activity lacked a repeatable process for identifying accounts, testing messages and generating commercial conversations.
02
The strategy
Start with targeted cold email to test audiences, positioning and objections directly with buyers. Use the response patterns to inform Meta campaigns, then refine creative and spend as lead data accumulates.
03
Email as the first feedback loop
Account types and decision-makers were segmented around the specialist sale. Targeted sequences gave prospects a clear commercial reason to respond, with positive intent tracked separately from total replies.
The supplied outbound dashboard records 5,669 sequence starts and 206 replies: a 3.6% reply rate. Of those replies, 138 were positive, representing 67.0% of replies—not 67.0% of all prospects.
04
Paid acquisition added volume
Meta was introduced alongside outbound, not as a replacement. Buyer language and objections from email informed the paid messaging and lower-friction lead journey.
The earlier April 17–May 2 snapshot shows 31 Meta leads at $47.33 per lead from $1,467.32 in spend. A separate scale-window snapshot records 72 leads at $37.97 per lead from $2,733.54 in spend.
05
Refinement improved acquisition cost
A later May 26–30 window records 15 Meta leads from $317.57 in spend, at a blended cost per lead of $21.17. Within that window, one ad produced nine leads at $13.38 per lead.
The engagement moved from disconnected acquisition activity to two complementary demand sources: outbound for precise market coverage and direct feedback, paid media for additional lead flow.
Reporting & confidentiality
Figures are reported in the supplied campaign dashboards. The $4.875M is opportunity value recorded in the outbound platform, not closed revenue. Paid results are separate reporting snapshots, not cumulative totals. Client identity and product details remain confidential.
Both supplied studies include some identical paid-media snapshots. They are reproduced as reported in each source, not treated as independent evidence of a combined result.
