Lead Generation for COOs
COOs don't have time to babysit sales development. You're running operations, managing P&L, and putting out fires across every department. Meanwhile, the revenue engine sputters because nobody owns the top of the funnel. You need predictable pipeline without adding headcount or distracting your team from execution.
The problem you already know
- Sales leadership says they need more pipeline, but hiring an SDR team means 6+ months of ramp time, $80K+ per head, and constant management overhead. You need results now, not next quarter.
- Marketing generates some inbound leads, but volume is inconsistent and quality varies wildly. You can't build a forecast on hope and random demo requests.
- Every sales tool vendor promises the moon, but you end up with a stack of subscriptions, zero integration, and sales reps who still can't fill their calendars. The last thing you need is another software project.
- Outbound has burned you before -- generic spam campaigns that tanked deliverability, offshore teams that couldn't speak your ICP's language, or agencies that took 90 days to 'strategize' before sending a single email.
How Chiefscale handles this
Chiefscale is a done-for-you outbound system, not a tool or a strategy deck. We handle personalized cold email, LinkedIn outreach, and speed-to-lead calling -- every warm reply gets a phone call within 60 minutes from a dedicated operator. No hiring, no training, no software subscriptions. We go live in 5 business days with dedicated sending domains that protect your company email reputation. Month-to-month contract means you can cancel with 30 days notice if results don't materialize. $1,500/month for everything, or $2,500/month for higher volume.
Who we target for you
We target the accounts you specify -- typically decision-makers at companies matching your revenue range, industry, and geography. For a COO at a $5M logistics software company, we might reach ops leaders at 3PLs doing $10-50M. For a COO at a manufacturing firm, we target plant managers and supply chain directors at companies in specific verticals.
The system, applied to your market
Week 1: onboarding call to define your ICP and messaging angles. We set up dedicated sending infrastructure and integrate with your CRM. Week 2: first campaigns go live across email and LinkedIn. Your dedicated operator begins calling warm replies within 60 minutes. Week 3-4: bi-weekly reporting shows reply rates, conversation rates, and meetings booked. We iterate messaging based on what's working. By week 6, you have predictable weekly pipeline without touching the system yourself.
What to expect
Expect 5-12% reply rates on cold outreach -- roughly 3-5x the industry average of 1-3%. Most clients see their first qualified conversations within 10-14 days and booked meetings by week 3. Speed-to-lead calling converts 20-30% of warm replies into actual conversations because we reach prospects while they're engaged.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from hiring an SDR?
An SDR costs $80K+ loaded, takes 3-6 months to ramp, and requires daily management. Chiefscale is $1,500-2,500/month, live in 5 days, and runs without oversight. You get the output without the headcount.
Will this hurt our domain reputation?
No. We use dedicated sending domains, never your company domain. If deliverability takes a hit, it's isolated to infrastructure we control and can replace. Your primary domain stays clean.
What if our ICP is hard to reach?
We work with complex ICPs daily -- manufacturing executives, hospital administrators, PE operating partners. If your target exists on LinkedIn or has a business email, we can reach them. We adjust messaging and cadence based on response data.
Do we need to provide a contact list?
No. We handle list building based on your ICP criteria. If you have a target account list, we can work from that. If not, we build it from scratch using firmographics, job titles, and other filters you specify.
How involved do we need to be?
Minimal. One onboarding call to define ICP and messaging, then bi-weekly 15-minute syncs to review performance. Your only ongoing task is taking meetings we book. Everything else -- sending, calling, CRM updates, domain management -- is handled.
What's the contract length?
Month-to-month. Cancel with 30 days notice. No annual commitment, no setup fees. If it doesn't work, you're not stuck paying for 12 months of underperformance.
