Why Bolt

A growth partner,
not another agency

We track buying signals across your ideal clients every day, position you as the specialist who's solved that exact problem before, and introduce you directly to the decision makers. No generic blasts, no tire-kickers. Only one step needs your time.

How it works

Your outbound,
handled end to end

We learn your business

Your ideal client, your niche, your edge. Fill out our 5 to 6 question onboarding form and we know exactly which companies to watch.

Your time commitment

15 to 20 minutes, once. That is the only time we ask for upfront.

We track and pre-vet

Every day we scan your ideal client profile for buying signals. We reach out, pre-vet every reply, and filter out the tire-kickers.

What we monitor daily

10 buying-signal types: hiring surges, funding rounds, leadership changes, board changes, department growth, product launches, tech-stack changes, niche hiring, aggressive hiring, office expansions.

We introduce you directly

Once a prospect is qualified and ready, we connect you two directly. You take the conversation and sign the agreement.

What to expect

3 to 6 qualified introductions within your first 60 days, on average.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How long until I see results?

On average, the first qualified introduction lands around 7.6 days in, and the first signed agreement around day 25. Best case: first qualified conversation in 3 days, first signed agreement in 6 days. Exact timing varies heavily by niche.

Industry benchmarks for B2B outbound report first-meeting conversion within 4 to 6 weeks of consistent activity (RAIN Group, 2024).

What do I actually have to do?

Fill out a quick 5 to 6 question onboarding form on your niche and ideal client profile. That's it. No tool setup, no kickoff call, no meetings on your side.

After that, we handle everything: signal tracking, specialist positioning, opener copy, outreach, reply management, and pre-vetting the prospect. You get constant progress updates and market intel so you always have the upper hand. When a prospect shows real intent, we introduce you directly. You take the conversation and close.

How is this different from other lead gen agencies?

We're not an outbound agency running generic blasts. We track buying signals across your ideal client profile every day: hiring surges, funding rounds, leadership changes, product launches, office expansions. We only reach out when a company is showing real buying intent.

We then position you as the specialist who's solved that exact problem before, pre-vet the prospect so tire-kickers never reach your calendar, and introduce you directly. On average, expect 3 to 6 qualified introductions (direct conversations with decision makers) within your first 60 days. Exact volume varies by niche.

And because we only work with recruitment agencies, we understand PSL processes, vendor approval, fee negotiation, and the staffing sales cycle in a way generic outbound shops don't.

What if it doesn't work?

We've generated $627.5K+ in signed agreements across all clients. Before we onboard anyone, we assess fit based on your niche and ideal client profile. We won't take your money if we don't think we can deliver results.

How much does it cost?

Pricing depends on your target market, volume, and goals. Get in touch and we'll give you a straight answer, no vague "it depends" runaround.

Fit check

Who this is for

We pre-vet every prospect before they reach your calendar. We apply the same standard to who we take on.

This is for you if

  • You do permanent placement. Direct-hire perm searches, retained or contingent, are where this model performs.
  • Your average fee is $20K or more. The economics of targeted, founder-led outbound work at that ticket size.
  • A client is worth $30K+ to you over time. Repeat job orders and multi-placement accounts are where the return compounds.
  • You're past $500K in annual revenue. You've proven you can close and deliver; we pour fuel on that.
  • Your sales and fulfillment processes are dialed in. You can take a qualified introduction, run a real sales conversation, and deliver on the job orders you win.

This is not for you if

  • Temporary staffing is your core model. Temp margins don't support this kind of high-touch outbound.
  • Your average fee is under $20K. The math stops working below that, for you and for us.
  • You're under $500K in annual revenue. Get a few more wins on the board first, then come talk to us.
  • You don't have a sales or fulfillment process yet. Qualified introductions only pay off if you can close them and deliver on them.
