B2B sales outsourcing - when it pays off and when it is a waste of budget

For us, B2B sales outsourcing means proactively starting the first conversation with decision-makers at companies that match your ideal customer profile, up to the point where they show interest in your offer. This is SDR work - the role responsible for first contact with a prospect. We build the account list, find the decision-makers, design the campaign workflow, keep deliverability high, generate interest and hand over the lead. We do not sell or negotiate on our clients' behalf and we do not take over their sales process. Your reps spend their time talking to interested buyers instead of looking for them.

Outsourcing sales development does not fit every company. Because our billing is tied to results, on the first call we tell you upfront whether an external SDR team can deliver a return for your company. It depends on five things.

Sales outsourcing with Scaling Labs in short
Outcome
interested decision-makers who want to learn about your offer, handed over to your sales rep
On your side
the sales conversation, the proposal and negotiations
Scale
over 120,000 messages a month across 11 markets, plus LinkedIn and phone
Start
first contacts about 2-3 weeks after signing
Billing
pay-per-lead (leads you confirm) or pay-per-meeting (meetings held)
It pays off when
  • you have a proven offer with demand in the market and want to add a sales channel and scale up
  • your customers have a high lifetime value (LTV)
  • you have a sales process and sales reps who will take over the conversations with leads
  • your sales reps are tied up with proposals and negotiations and have no time to find new customers
  • your market has at least 5,000 companies that can buy your product or service
It is a waste of budget when
  • you are a micro business or a startup still testing whether the market wants your product or service (no product-market fit)
  • a customer's orders are worth less than €2,000 a year
  • you have no sales process and no sales reps to handle the leads
  • you are looking for a team to take over all of sales, including proposals and negotiations
  • your market has fewer than 5,000 companies

How we handle your email

What we do

Outsourced SDR team - what we do for you

We work as an external sales development team at the first-contact stage - from building the list and the infrastructure to reaching decision-makers and delivering results. You receive leads your team can work on.

  • Sending infrastructure

    We buy separate domains and mailboxes for the campaign. This keeps deliverability high, protects your main domain and lets us work at scale.

  • A list of every company that can buy from you

    We collect the key data - headcount, revenue, markets, products and services, offices. Then the decision-makers and their contact details - name, LinkedIn profile, email and mobile number. Every address is verified before sending. The list is built for each campaign and never reused between clients.

  • The whole campaign design

    We design the sequence - when outreach starts by email, when we message on LinkedIn from the profiles of people at your company and when we call. Email is the main channel, LinkedIn and phone are added for priority contacts.

  • Copy and A/B tests you approve

    At launch we run at least five copy tests per segment and scale the best performers. Every email has at least four variants and a full signature.

  • Market signals

    We track signals such as new offices, new products, changes in decision-making roles, open job ads, LinkedIn activity, Google News and more. That way we reach companies that show a need for change.

  • Copy in local languages

    We write natively in the language of each market. If you have local reps there, a message in the recipient's language gets more replies in our campaigns than one in English. In selected markets we also make calls in the local language, which makes international campaigns possible.

  • Sales-ready leads for your sales rep

    A decision-maker who replied and wants to talk, with context - where they came from, what they are looking for and what they asked. We follow up with people who need more time. This takes prospecting work off your sales reps.

  • Weekly report

    Who we write to, who replied, how many leads are in progress and which segments respond best. Once a week we go through the results and market insights with you.

Team

Outsourced sales team - who works for you

Outsourcing your sales team makes sense when your reps are tied up with proposals and negotiations and have no time to find new customers. First contact is on our side, the sale is on yours.

  • SDRs

    SDR outsourcing means we run your prospecting end to end and reach decision-makers at target accounts on three channels - LinkedIn, phone and email - until they show interest.

  • Dedicated account manager and a weekly review

    A dedicated account manager runs the campaign. Once a week we go through the results and market insights with you.

  • Your B2B sales rep

    Takes over interested prospects, runs the meetings, prepares the proposal and closes the deal. An external sales team works when someone on your side follows up on leads quickly.

This is how we work, for example, for a commercial cleaning company - its sales reps spend their time closing contracts, with no need to grow the sales team.

How we work

Onboarding step by step, from the first call to the first leads. First contacts after 2-3 weeks.

We start sales outsourcing by agreeing on the details with your team. For the first 2-3 weeks we prepare the campaign on our side. From you we need one call, materials about your offer, a list of companies to exclude and a person who will take over the leads.

01 - StartDays 1-3

We learn your sales process and agree on the handover rules.

  • Ideal customer profile (ICP) - we agree on which companies and roles we target and what counts as a lead.
  • Handover - we agree on who takes over the leads on your side and in which CRM.
  • Infrastructure - separate domains and mailboxes, bought and set up on our side.
  • From you - a kick-off call, materials about your offer and a list of companies to exclude.
02 - PreparationWeeks 1-2

We build the account list, warm up the mailboxes and write the copy.

  • Companies and decision-makers - data from several sources, every address verified before sending.
  • Warm-up - new mailboxes are warmed up before they send the first campaign.
  • Copy - email and LinkedIn messages and, where phone helps, a call script.
  • From you - approval of the company list and the copy.
03 - First contactsFrom week 2-3

We reach out, follow up and hand over leads.

  • Outreach and follow-ups - we follow up until the person replies or declines.
  • Leads in your CRM - with context - where the lead came from, what they are looking for and what they asked.
  • From you - your sales rep takes over the leads and runs the conversations.
04 - ScalingMonths 2-3

More of what wins.

  • Weekly review - results and market insights, changes to the company list and the copy.
  • Next segments - we roll out what works to new industries and markets.
  • From you - you confirm leads, prepare proposals and sell.

Law

Law and data - the rules we follow

Outreach to companies on your behalf falls under GDPR and under each country's rules on electronic communication. Approaches to consent for that kind of contact differ between markets, and each carries some risk.

  • Process reviewed with a law firm

    It covers emails, LinkedIn messages and phone calls, from the first contact to handling refusals and objections.

  • Lists and GDPR

    When we build and process lists, we follow GDPR notice and transparency requirements for the people we contact.

  • Copy and local rules

    We write message copy and call scripts with each country's rules on electronic communication in mind.

  • Respect for the recipient

    No pushy outreach - after a completed sequence, every contact gets a 45-60 day break before we message them again. People who unsubscribe or decline go on our exclusion list and will not get a message or a call from us in the future.

Pricing

B2B sales outsourcing pricing - two billing models

Price depends on the selected channels and the number of companies we reach. On a retainer, the number of leads goes into the contract.

Pay-per-lead

No monthly retainer. You pay only for the leads you confirm, or for meetings that land in your calendar.

  • Every lead is confirmed by your sales team
  • Or pay-per-meeting, for booked meetings only
Retainer with leads in the contract

A fixed monthly fee with the number of leads written into the contract. If we fall short, we keep working until we deliver it, at no extra cost.

  • Number of leads written into the contract
  • We work until it is delivered
What the price depends on
Market size
how many companies qualify to buy your products or services
Number of leads or meetings
how many you want each month
How hard the contacts are to reach
a director at a 500-person manufacturer vs the owner of a local service business
