Linked-360 Pipeline Case Studies

Real Systems. Real Conversations. Real Pipeline.

How founder-led B2B agencies turned their existing trust assets into a predictable, long-cycle pipeline. Your podcast, newsletter, CRM, and case studies already carry weight — they simply needed the right architecture, rhythm, and follow-up behind them.

See how Linked-360™ helped agencies create a consistent flow of qualified conversations and, in some cases, 20+ meetings per month.

WASTEWATER / INFRASTRUCTURE MARKETING AGENCY

20–25 Qualified Meetings/Month Using Podcast → Pipeline System

1. The World They Operated In

B2B environmental and infrastructure sector with very long sales cycles (6–18 months). Decision-makers included Directors, VPs, CEOs, and municipal authorities — people who are cautious, busy, and difficult to reach through conventional outreach.

2. Trust Assets They Already Had

• Established podcast (“Smells Like Money”)
• Strong LinkedIn presence
• Deep domain expertise
• 20+ years of industry credibility

But there was no structured way to convert that trust into conversations and meetings.

3. Their Challenges Before Linked-360

• The podcast was respected, but not feeding the pipeline
• Case studies existed, but were rarely seen or used in outreach
• Complex industry = few truly warm conversations
• Cold outreach was misaligned with how their market buys
• No operational CRM for relationship tracking
• No follow-up rhythm or systemised touchpoints

4. What Linked-360 Installed

• Podcast → meeting transition workflows
• Guest sourcing focused on high-value accounts
• Case study rewriting and structured distribution
• Breakcold CRM installation as the central relationship hub
• Full LinkedIn → CRM migration with enrichment
• Multi-touch follow-up system designed for long sales cycles
• Newsletter → DM → meeting loops connecting content to conversations

5. The Outcomes (Hard Metrics)

• 20–25 qualified meetings per month
• 3 new deals closed in the first 2 months (six-figure potential)
• 10+ proposals sent each quarter
• Dormant connections and older relationships reactivated
• Pipeline driven by relevance and trust, not cold volume

6. The Long-Cycle Impact

For the first time in years, they had a pipeline they could rely on — built entirely on existing trust assets that were finally structured and connected.

CONSTRUCTION / ENGINEERING CONSULTANT

30%+ Newsletter Engagement + Warm Replies → High-Value Meetings

1. The World They Operated In

They worked on large construction and engineering projects with long decision cycles and multiple stakeholders.

Buying decisions were slow, risk-averse, and heavily trust-dependent.

2. Trust Assets They Already Had

• A podcast
• A large base of LinkedIn connections
• A solid reputation in their niche

But there was no structured way to stay in touch or guide people toward conversations.

3. Their Challenges Before Linked-360

• No reliable way to reach or re-engage past contacts
• Podcast episodes weren’t reused beyond the initial publish
• No follow-up system after initial interactions
• No CRM unifying their relationship data
• No email or LinkedIn newsletter acting as a central trust channel

4. What Linked-360 Installed

• A LinkedIn + email newsletter ecosystem
• Clear, low-friction “warm conversation” CTAs embedded in content
• Breakcold CRM with AI-based prompts to surface warm leads
• Enrichment and cleanup of 2,000+ contacts
• Podcast → newsletter → DM loops that connected assets to outreach
• A sustainable newsletter cadence and editorial flow tied to pipeline goals

5. The Outcomes (Hard Metrics)

• 30%+ consistent open rates
• High click-through on key topics
• Direct replies that turned into meetings
• Predictable warm conversations every week

6. The Long-Cycle Impact

Their list was no longer just “an audience” — it became a living trust engine, quietly turning quiet contacts into active opportunities.

COMPETITOR-INTELLIGENCE CAMPAIGN

1,000+ Competitor Users Identified → High-Response DM Conversations

1. The World They Operated In

A high-ticket B2B product trying to enter a market dominated by a larger competitor. They needed a thoughtful way to approach users of the incumbent solution.

2. Trust Assets They Already Had

• Strong technical case studies
• Deep product expertise
• Founder’s LinkedIn presence

But they lacked precise targeting and structured outreach.

3. Their Challenges Before Linked-360

• No visibility into who was actually using the competitor
• No segmentation or prioritization
• Low DM response rates from broad outreach
• No CRM system suited for this type of campaign

4. What Linked-360 Installed

• AI-supported mapping of competitor users
• A targeted list of 1,000+ verified users
• Highly relevant DM sequences
• Trust-led messaging backed by case studies
• CRM tagging and segmentation structure
• A follow-up rhythm tailored to this buying context

5. The Outcomes (Hard Metrics)

• Strong DM response rates from niche, high-fit targets
• Instant credibility through relevant case studies
• Quality meetings with competitor users in their ideal segment

6. The Long-Cycle Impact

They opened a new, strategically important market segment — powered by competitor intelligence, structure, and trust assets working together.

WHY THESE CASE STUDIES WORK

Because the Architecture Is Consistent.

Each client came from a different market, with different assets, price points, and buyers —
but the underlying trust-flow structure stayed the same:

When this architecture is installed once, it can be adapted across multiple long-cycle B2B environments.
