General Questions

5 questions in this category

Unlike traditional consultancies that provide generic frameworks, we focus specifically on the unique challenges of Asian market penetration. Every solution is custom-built based on your industry, company stage, and target markets. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all approaches because what works in Singapore won’t necessarily work in Thailand or the Philippines.

Pricing & Engagement

5 questions in this category

Every B2B prospecting campaign is different. Your target market, industry, prospect complexity, campaign scope, and specific objectives all impact the resources required. We provide custom pricing based on your actual needs rather than forcing you into generic packages that may not fit. This ensures you only pay for what you need and get solutions tailored to your goals.

Pricing depends on: target market complexity (e.g., Singapore vs multiple ASEAN countries), number of prospects to research and contact, campaign duration and intensity, services included (research only vs full outreach), industry specialization required, and whether you need dedicated SDRs or shared resources. We discuss these factors during consultation to provide accurate custom pricing.

 
The ideal timeline is 3.5 months. You need 1-2 weeks of set-up and alignment. The remaining 3 months will serve us the outreach timeline, recalibration, and optimization of strategies. If you want optimal result, it is highly advisable to run an outreach campaign for 6 months to 1 year.
We offer flexible engagement models: project-based (for specific campaigns with defined scopes), retainer-based (for ongoing prospecting and pipeline management), and fractional staffing (for dedicated SDRs or researchers). The model depends on your needs—whether you need a one-time campaign, continuous lead generation, or extended team capacity.
Yes, we offer free prospecting strategy consultations to understand your target market, ideal customer profile, and business objectives. During the consultation, we discuss your specific needs and provide insights on how B2B prospecting in Asian markets can support your growth goals. This helps both of us determine if we’re a good fit before any commitment.

Process & Delivery

5 questions in this category

Our process has 4 key steps: (1) Research & Discovery – we identify your ideal customer profile and research target companies using advanced tools, (2) Data Collection – we build comprehensive prospect databases with accurate contact information, (3) Qualification & Scoring – we qualify prospects based on your criteria and score them for prioritization, (4) Strategic Outreach – we execute multi-channel campaigns to connect with qualified prospects and set appointments.
Quality over quantity is our approach. We use Advanced Lead Research & Qualification, validate contact information accuracy, apply your specific criteria for lead scoring, conduct buyer persona mapping, and perform account-based prospecting for high-value targets. Every prospect is researched and qualified before outreach, ensuring you only speak with relevant decision-makers.
We use multi-channel prospecting strategies including LinkedIn (connection requests, InMail, content engagement), Email (personalized sequences, follow-ups), Phone (cold calling for appointment setting), and Event Marketing (pre-event outreach, booth traffic generation). The channel mix is customized based on your industry and target audience preferences in each Asian market.
Each market requires different approaches. We adapt messaging for cultural preferences, adjust outreach timing based on local business hours and holidays, use market-appropriate communication styles (formal vs casual), respect relationship-building protocols in each country, and account for decision-making hierarchies. What works in Singapore won’t work in Thailand or Philippines.
You get full transparency into campaign performance and can track every prospect interaction.
