“We were finding prospects who were literally complaining about their PagerDuty bill on Reddit and Twitter. Updately surfaced them, crafted the perfect message, and we just had to show up to the demo. It's like having a sales team that never sleeps.”
“The AI sauce is the magic. It removes all the noise and only gives us relevant, high-intent ICPs. It's the best match fit we've ever seen.”
“I found myself looking at some of the messages that it's created and thinking like, wow, where did it find this? This went really deep to find information that you could never do in just a cursory search.”
“I'm able to come into those [pipeline review] meetings and be like, look at what I booked through Updately. You know, if my other kind of channels have slowed down, I'm like, but Updately, Updately's there.”
“If you don't have an active, engaged LinkedIn pipeline and you have a clearly defined ICP and persona, you need to add Updately to your tech stack immediately to supplement your sales.”
“Email and LinkedIn definitely work but the personalization requirements to make them work have just gotten higher. The new bar is being set by Updately. Go see it for yourself.”
“Updately gave us control of what we were doing as opposed to giving the keys and letting them go. But most importantly, the reason why we joined Updately was because it was a third of the price of the agency that we were using to do a similar type of outreach.”
“I would say to book me 14 meetings with qualified prospects in that traditional method could take me three months, two to three months amongst all the other things that I'm balancing. So you're thinking of shrinking it down from 90 days down to 20, which is absolutely wild.”
