Problem
Many professional services firms struggle to generate new business, as traditional cold outreach methods yield low conversion rates and fewer than 10% of employees actively make warm introductions. This reliance on inefficient outreach channels overlooks the significant potential within existing professional networks.
Solution
Orbit provides a platform designed to activate dormant professional networks for lead generation, shifting focus from cold outreach to leveraging warm introductions. The system facilitates the identification of individuals within an organization's employee and alumni network who are best positioned to make relevant referrals. By employing behavioral science principles, Orbit nudges these individuals to act at opportune moments, thereby generating warm, trackable leads. These referrals are then integrated directly into the sales pipeline, streamlining the business development process.
