What to expect
Everyone in this industry quotes a best month and calls it an average. These are ours, measured across 25 client accounts over the last four months, including the bad weeks. If a number below looks unimpressive next to someone else's landing page, that is the point.
Measured, not modelled
This is a four-month rolling window, April to July 2026, across 25 client accounts. Not a case study, not our best client, not a projection.
A conversation is a person who accepted your connection and then replied to the thank-you message with something worth picking up. Not an impression. Not a like. Not a follower. That is why we quote a reply rate of the people who accept, 26.9%, and call a reply a reply. It is where a conversation gets the chance to start, not proof that one has.
These are benchmarks, not promises. We do not guarantee a number, because the biggest variable is not our sending. It is whether the target is right and whether you pick up the conversations we warm. A tight ICP in a market that knows you will beat these figures. A broad list in a market that has never heard of you will sit under them.
What that means in a month
Our rates applied to 800 a month, the Gold pace. Round numbers, no flattery. Bronze and Silver scale down in proportion.
Where the funnel ends is deliberate. We report replies, because that is the last thing we control. Anyone quoting you a meetings number is quoting you someone else's work.
Expect different results
The same message to a different list produces a different result. These are the acceptance rates we target by list type. If a list runs below its floor, the search is wrong and we rebuild it rather than send harder.
The Recent Independent is the highest intent list we run. They feel the gap between who their profile says they are and who they have become, and they feel it today. That urgency is why the number is higher. It is a trigger, not a trick.
Industries we serve
Different markets, different language, same gap. What changes is not the funnel. It is what your buyer needs to see before they will reply, and that changes what we fix first.
What your buyer needs: calm, deliberate, long-term. Any urgency triggers a professional immune response and the conversation dies on the spot.
What we change: the pull matters more than average here. No calendar links, no scarcity. The first message has to feel like a conversation, never a sales meeting.
Expect Slower acceptance, higher quality. Conversations that take longer to open and go further when they do.
What your buyer needs: to understand the current venture, not the logo you left. Most technical founders have a profile that reads as engineering history.
What we change: we surface the tension between past credibility and current positioning. The gap is almost always that the profile tells the old story.
Expect Acceptance around the average, with reply quality lifting sharply once the profile stops selling the last company.
What your buyer needs: specificity. Strong frameworks and narrow specialisms are already there. The problem is being seen in the rooms where the decision happens.
What we change: generic positioning fails outright. We go precise on the niche, because vague questions get vague replies.
Expect Our strongest list type sits here. Framework creators accept at 40% and above when the search is built tight.
What your buyer needs: discretion. Conduct rules restrict marketing, and peers and regulators are watching how you show up.
What we change: we separate visibility for the right audience from broad marketing. The problem was never being found by everyone.
Expect Lower volume by design and a longer runway. The ceiling here is professional, not algorithmic.
What your buyer needs: a reason to treat you as a specialist rather than another inbox filler. Everyone in this market is already connected to everyone.
What we change: we turn network size into relationship depth. Volume was never your problem. Relevance was.
Expect Acceptance at or above average, and the sharpest gains from profile work rather than sending.
What your buyer needs: proof before contact. They will research you, decide, and never tell you they looked.
What we change: the profile has to do the convincing while you are asleep, then the outreach only has to start the conversation.
Expect Around the average across the board. The variable is whether your niche is narrow enough to search.
Month by month
Month one buys you a foundation, not a pipeline. If someone promises you conversations in week one, they are sending to a list nobody approved.
Expect a foundation and a quiet inbox. That is correct.
Expect the first real conversations. Pace depends on how fast you pick them up.
Expect a channel that runs whether or not you had a good week.
The part nobody puts on a website
We do not control your calendar, your qualifying, or your close. Quoting a meetings number would mean taking credit for your work.
Between a conversation and a contract sits your pricing, your proposal and your judgement. None of that is ours.
Anyone guaranteeing outreach outcomes is either automating, exaggerating, or planning to blame you in month three.
They feel like progress and pay for nothing. If you want a bigger follower count there are cheaper ways to buy one.
Start with your Visibility Score, then bring your seed clients. If the target is not there, we will tell you before you pay us.
