B2B lead generation services that report pipeline, not activity.
B2B lead generation services are outsourced programs that build ICP lists, run multi-channel outreach, qualify replies, and book accepted meetings on your AEs' calendars. Managed Outbound delivers that as a pod - GTM engineer, dedicated SDRs, deliverability, and RevOps - with public pricing, a 7-day Foundation build, and first meetings in weeks 3 to 6. Month-to-month after a 90-day initial engagement.
See your reachable market, realistic meeting range, expected cost per meeting, and recommended outbound motion.
Estimate your pipeline before you talk to anyone.
Baseline: Scale Pod, 25 to 40 accepted meetings/mo (forecast). Set your own ACV, win rates, and sales cycle to see pipeline, closed-won, and payback month.
What real B2B lead generation services should include.
List building & data validation
ICP accounts joined and enriched across Apollo, ZoomInfo, LinkedIn, and intent signals in Clay. Every contact re-verified before send - not a stale export.
Multi-channel outreach
Cold email, LinkedIn, and cold calling sequenced together so a prospect hears from you across the channels they actually use.
Deliverability infrastructure
Dedicated sending domains, warmed mailboxes, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, inbox placement monitoring. Your primary domain never touches cold traffic.
Objection handling & booking
Named human SDRs handle replies, disqualify tire-kickers, and pass only accepted meetings straight to AE calendars.
CRM & RevOps hygiene
Contacts, activities, and pipeline routing wired into Salesforce or HubSpot so nothing falls through and every meeting is attributable.
Pipeline reporting
Weekly reporting on meetings booked, SQL conversion, and weighted pipeline. Activity metrics are diagnostic, never the KPI.
Five models buyers evaluate, and how they actually perform.
| Model | Time to first meeting | Monthly cost | Common failure mode |
|---|---|---|---|
| Freelance SDR | 4 to 8 weeks | $2K to $5K | No deliverability, no GTM engineering, disappears at scale |
| Legacy lead-gen agency | 6 to 10 weeks | $4K to $10K | Bills for activity, ships spreadsheets, low intent |
| Offshore call center | 2 to 4 weeks | $3K to $8K | Volume dials on unvalidated lists, brand risk, low SQL rate |
| AI SDR tool | 1 to 2 weeks | $1K to $3K | Deliverability collapse, generic copy, no objection handling |
| Managed Outbound pod | 7-day build, meetings in weeks 3 to 6 | $4.5K build + $7.5K to $24.5K/mo | Not the fit for pre-PMF teams under $2M ARR |

Three tiers, all with public pricing.
Every managed pod starts with the same one-time $4,500 Foundation build, run as week 1. Pod pricing is that one-time build plus the monthly retainer, with no other setup line items.
Deciding between a full pod and a fractional GTM engineer?
Compare cost, ramp time, reporting depth, SDR execution, and single-point accountability to see which model fits your quota and current team.
We guarantee the operating work, not a meeting count.
Meeting volume depends on your ICP density, offer, and market timing, so promising a number is a promise nobody can keep honestly. What we can commit to in writing is the work that produces meetings, the speed we learn at, and the quality bar every meeting has to clear.
Infrastructure live by an agreed date
Sending domains, mailboxes, warmup, data enrichment, and CRM wiring are live by a date written into the engagement, not a vague first month.
A defined number of accounts researched
Each month we research and enrich an agreed account volume with verified buying-committee contacts. The number is stated per tier and reported against every week.
Reply-handling SLA
Every prospect reply is worked by a human within one business day, including objections, referrals, and out-of-office reroutes.
Weekly experiments
A minimum number of documented experiments run every week across list, offer, message, and channel, with results logged so you can see what we learned.
Transparent accepted-meeting criteria
We agree the definition of an accepted meeting before launch and publish it in the weekly report. No moving goalposts on either side.
Replacement for meetings that miss the bar
Any meeting that fails the mutually agreed qualification rules is replaced at no additional cost.
What counts as an accepted meeting
- The contact matches an agreed title, function, and seniority in the target ICP
- The account matches agreed firmographic and technographic fit rules
- The prospect stated a relevant problem, initiative, or evaluation timeline
- A real calendar hold exists with your AE, with context notes attached
- No existing open opportunity or active inbound conversation for that account
We report accepted meetings rather than bookings. Anything that fails these rules is replaced at no cost.
Scale Pod operating terms

- Research volume: 1,500 to 2,500 new accounts researched and enriched per month
