THE PATTERN SO FARStrong

Names never travel. The shape of a buyer does, and that is what aims your first list.

Older evidence fadesA no counts too

Understand the firm.
Then approach it.

A name on a list tells you nothing about whether a company will buy. Sonar builds a proper understanding of the firms you could sell to, so by the time anyone hears from you, we already know why they were worth approaching.

01

We read the companies, not the list

Every firm is read properly: what they sell and to whom, how they are built, how they are changing. That is the part a bought list never carries, and it is the part that decides whether a conversation goes anywhere.

Signals keep it current

Companies do not stand still. Money comes in, people move, teams grow, systems change, announcements land. Sonar watches for all of it, so what you know about a firm is what is true this week rather than what was true when someone last looked.

Intelligence turns it into an answer

Raptor is the analyst sitting on top of all of it. Ask it which kind of firm is actually buying what you sell, where the interest is concentrated, and who to approach first. It has read everything Sonar holds, so the answer arrives with the companies behind it.

ASK IT
Which kind of firm actually buys this, and what do they have in common?

04

Then the right firms hear from you

What they receive is written from what we know about that firm, in your voice and from your domain. Every reply is graded and goes back into the picture, so each month Webcite understands your market a little better than the last.

The firm that says yes

Held as evidence, not opinion

The same shape of buyer keeps replying. Sonar knows which shape, and aims the next list at it before anyone has sent a thing.

What changed in your market

Covering the firms worth your attention

Three firms of the shape that replies to you moved this week, and one is worth a conversation now.

Each one is filed against the firm with the page it came from, so nothing in the brief is unattributable.

WHY IT MATTERS

The unglamorous half

Watched every day

The best written approach is worthless in a spam folder. Domains, authentication and sending reputation are minded constantly, because that is what decides whether any of the rest of it was worth doing.

HOW AN ENGAGEMENT RUNS

Nothing to install. Nobody to train.

You tell us what you sell and who has bought it before. Everything after that is our problem.

1

FIRST WEEK

We take the customer apart

Most firms can describe their best customer in a sentence, and that sentence is almost always too broad to aim with. We break it into the attributes that separate a buyer from a passer by, then keep narrowing until what is left is small enough to work and precise enough to be worth it.

FIRST MONTH

The picture fills in

Those firms get read one by one, and what is moving inside them starts landing. The first approaches go out once the sending side is warm enough to be worth it. Rushing that part is how people end up in spam folders.

FROM THEN ON

It gets sharper

Every reply, warm or cold, tells us something about who really buys from you. The profile we started with is a first draft. What replaces it is the one the market wrote.
