with high-quality leads from the financial sector"
Result

The request from Sentinels:
" Help us grow from startup to scale-up with high-quality leads from the financial sector "
Objective: more prospects
The sales department was hungry for prospects, but the influx was too low to meet the ambitious growth targets.
Also important: proof of authority
As a new player, they had to prove themselves against traditional financial institutions that had been working with the same partners for years.
Rapid results for investors
With fresh capital in the bank, there was pressure to show quick results to investors, leaving no room for failed experiments.
You are clearly looking for evidence that advertisements truly work.

Our 4-step solution
The execution
Every successful campaign begins with the right strategy. This is how we approached it step by step:
Step
Laser-focus on the right decision-makers
We segmented the target audience into compliance officers (the users) and the C-suite (the decision-makers). This allowed us to reach the entire Decision Making Unit with the appropriate message.
Step
Data-driven content strategy
Three white papers, multiple perspectives, one goal: discovering what resonates. Through smart testing, we found the perfect match between message and target audience.
Step
Optimizing for maximum impact
Every euro had to work harder. We halved the cost-per-lead while tripling the volume, preparing for a major leap in scale.
Step
Scaling without loss of quality
With proven campaigns, we were able to increase the budget responsibly. The result: a consistent 250 leads per month at €35 per lead.
The impact on their business
The effect
After 18 months of intensive collaboration, Sentinels has not only achieved their goals but significantly exceeded them. From an unknown startup, they have grown into a serious player that was eventually acquired by Fenergo.
