Case Study: Valhalla.team's AICO books 1,000+ M&A appointments with Smartlead

Valhalla.team books 1,000+ M&A appointments in a year with Smartlead

AICO by Valhalla.team, an AI-powered lead generation service for the M&A sector, faced the challenge of scaling its cold email operations to reach highly elusive, senior-level prospects like CEOs and founders considering selling their companies. Their previous platform, Lemlist, could not support their growth, and they required a robust API to build proprietary analytics and automation systems on top of their outreach infrastructure. They turned to Smartlead to solve these scaling and integration challenges.

Using Smartlead's API, AICO built a custom system that exports send records for analytics, uses webhooks for real-time bounce/reply processing, and leverages the Reply Database API to power a proprietary lead prioritization dashboard. This solution enabled them to scale their outreach effortlessly. The result was the generation of over 1,000 booked appointments for their M&A clients in a single year, a key metric they measure success by, all powered by the Smartlead platform.
