What we did
As the timeframe was very strict, our team consisted of 7 lead generation agents making calls, sending out invitations and gaining registrations. Additional help was given by a LinkedIn manager. The whole project was supervised by a project manager who was always in touch with the customer.

Knowing regional business communications and traditions, in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan our team not only made calls and sent out personal business emails to decision makers. We also sent out personalized official letters to CEOs and general managers of the companies, asking them to authorize manufacturing and IT department directors to attend the event.

In B2B sales it is important to speak to your prospective clients personally but at the same time to get a maximum audience reach. And this is where events can help. So if a target group is chosen correctly and communication work for attracting the attendees is done well the IT vendor will definitely receive new leads which will fuel the sales process.
