FAQ

Questions from hardware teams.

Speak to us directly

Yes, and it's especially valuable for long cycles. Getting in front of the right person 6 months before they're ready to buy is infinitely better than showing up when the shortlist is already set. Prospect AI keeps your name in front of prospects across the full evaluation window with intelligent multi-touch sequences and timed follow-ups.

Prospect AI compiles a full account dossier before every outreach, including current equipment, operational context, and role-specific pain points. The copy is written around that research, not around a generic product pitch. Recipients respond because the message is relevant to their actual situation.

Absolutely. We can run separate motions for end-users, distributors, and channel partners simultaneously, with different messaging and sequences for each audience. Several of our hardware customers run all three in parallel.

We use a combination of company data, job title mapping, and signals like job postings and organisational announcements to identify the right contacts. For industrial buyers, we also use facility and location data to narrow down the right site and team.

Yes. List building supports geographic filtering, facility type, company size, industry classification, and dozens of other criteria. If you sell to gyms in the Southeast US, or to manufacturing plants with 500+ employees, we can build that list.

We start with ICP definition and domain setup in week one. By week two you'll have your first sequence live. Most hardware customers see their first positive replies within 2–3 weeks; the exact timeline depends on your market and offer, and we'll give you a realistic view before we start.

Most failed cold email efforts share the same problems: bad deliverability, generic copy, and no signal-based targeting. We fix all three. Your domains are warmed and monitored, every email is personalised with real account research, and outreach is triggered by signals that indicate the account is actually in-market.
