For machine builders and automation firms · UK, Germany, Austria & Switzerland

New customers for machine builders and automation firms.

I find firms that should be buying from you, research each one and write to them individually. You pay per meeting, with no retainer.

30-minute call · £250 per meeting · No retainer

I work with machine builders, integrators and panel builders, and the companies that make the parts and instruments inside their machines.

£250 per meeting

Plus £250 once to set up. No retainer.

Written one company at a time

Each email built from that firm's own website.

Your customers left out

Existing customers and anyone you name are excluded first.

01 · SOUND FAMILIAR?

Good firms grow on reputation. Until the queue thins out.

Most of your work comes through people who already know you: repeat customers, referrals, the engineers you've built for before. It's how good firms grow.

The trouble starts when a project slips or a big customer goes quiet. New names take months to win, and nobody in the business has time to go looking for them.

That's the part I take on.

02 · AN EXAMPLE

What it looks like for a firm like yours

Say you build automatic roll handling systems. Here's who I'd contact for you, and the kind of email I'd write in your name.

Who I'd contact

FIRMS
Those who should be buying from you: converters, film and paper producers, packaging plants.
PEOPLE
The ones who decide: engineering managers, plant managers, operations directors.
WHERE
UK, Germany, Austria and Switzerland, 11 to 200 staff.
LEFT OUT
Your current customers, and anyone else you name.

Four emails each, over a few weeks. Every one is checked against the company's own website first. If I can't say something true about a firm, I don't write to them.

From You, a roll handling builder

To Operations Director, packaging converter near Leeds

Subject Second slitting line at the Leeds site

Hi Sarah,

I saw you're adding a second slitting line at the Leeds site in the spring.

Lines like that tend to lose most of their time at the reel changes. We build automatic roll handling for converters, so reels are loaded and unloaded without anyone lifting them.

Worth a short call before the new line is specified?

Thanks,
Tom

03 · HOW IT WORKS

Four steps, one person

  1. STEP 1

    A 30-minute call

    We agree who you want to meet, who to leave out and what counts as a meeting.

  2. STEP 2

    Research

    I find the firms and the right people, read each company's website and check every address.

  3. STEP 3

    The emails go out

    Four per person, written for that company, from separate domains so your main email is never at risk.

  4. STEP 4

    Meetings in your calendar

    When someone wants to talk, I hand them over with the context. You pay for that meeting.

04 · PRICING

A small setup fee. Then you pay per meeting.

£250 per meeting

+ £250 once, to set up your sending domains and build your target list

  • No retainer.
  • What counts as a meeting is agreed in writing up front.
  • No meetings, no further fees.

06 · QUESTIONS

What people ask first

Do you email in my name?

Usually yes, from separate domains set up for your campaign, so your company email is never at risk. We agree it on the first call.

Will you contact my existing customers?

No. You give me a list of customers and anyone else to leave out, and they're removed before anything is sent.

Do you understand technical products?

Every email is built from the company's own website, and it has to be true about how that kind of business buys. If I can't say something true, I don't send it.

What if nobody replies?

Then the setup fee is all you've paid. Meetings are the only other charge.

How quickly does it start?

The research starts straight after our call. New sending domains need a few weeks to warm up before the first emails go.
