Webinar Recap: Ghosted Again? How to Stop Wasting Resources and Shorten Sales Cycles

By: Christian Banach

Generating new business is tougher than ever. Traditional lead gen tactics—like referrals, SEO, and cold email—just don’t deliver consistent results anymore. That’s why we hosted a webinar to introduce a smarter, more modern approach: Signal-Based Outreach.

In the session, we walked through a five-step framework designed to help agencies and consultancies connect with prospects when interest is high and timing is right. Here’s what we covered:

  1. Identifying buying signals—from job changes to website visits to content engagement.
  2. Monitoring and capturing those signals using affordable tools (even without a big tech stack).
  3. Prioritizing outreach based on signal strength—not just company size or job title.
  4. Personalizing outreach to increase response rates with 1-to-1 and 1-to-few campaigns.
  5. Measuring what matters, including KPIs like market reach, account engagement, and meetings booked.

We also shared behind-the-scenes of how our team tracks thousands of accounts in a simple spreadsheet, showing that you don’t need fancy tools to get started. Plus, we explored how to align sales and marketing efforts around this approach to build a more predictable pipeline.

If your current outreach efforts feel random, reactive, or resource-heavy, this session offers a clear and actionable path forward.
