We do the hard part — the dialing, the conversations, the intelligence gathering. You get qualified meetings with real decision-makers, structured market data on what's landing and what isn't, and complete visibility into every single call.
Selective by design. We only take on campaigns where we know we can deliver.
Most companies underestimate what it takes to build and run a real outbound function. By the time you've hired, onboarded, tooled up, and waited out the ramp, we're still not sure it's working.
That's for one rep. One market. Before you know if phone even works for your ICP.
Hire, train, ramp, tool up, manage, and hope. 6 months before you have real data. $162,500 before you know if it works.
Start a trial campaign for $2,500. Get 35 qualified conversations in roughly one week. Know exactly what your market thinks — and if you move forward, that $2,500 goes toward your engagement.
"Kevin and his team made the setup effortless, and within days we were making a high volume of dials. The best part was the iteration — the learnings from those calls went straight into my board meeting and shaped our entire go-to-market for 2026."
"Kevin and his team are the best in the business at outbound. The ROI was obvious — but what surprised us was the long tail. Conversations they had 6 to 12 months ago are still developing into pipeline today."
"Better quality work at the top of the funnel than any agency I've seen. We were impressed with the body of work — and had real pipeline, potentially a customer, within the first few weeks of our engagement."

"We had never made outbound calls. At the start, the campaigns struggled — but Kevin, Oliver, and the team continually pivoted until we found a working strategy. We booked over 50 meetings and landed more than 5 new paying customers, with more still in the pipeline."
Outbound isn't a technology problem or a headcount problem. It's a system problem — and every piece of the puzzle has to be in place before it produces real results.
Most companies struggle with outbound because they're trying to solve five problems at once. We simplify it: we bring the talent, technology, and operations. You tell us who to call and what to say, and we go to work — running flexible campaign types that surface the intelligence you need on what message is landing in what market. Every engagement returns data you can act on.

Our goal on every campaign: book your team a sales meeting. When we don't, we tell you exactly why — and that intelligence is more valuable than what most agencies deliver in a full engagement.
What every engagement delivers
Qualified, two-way conversations with your target buyers — where our only objective is to schedule a sales meeting. When we succeed, you have pipeline. When we don't, you have a diagnosis. Either way, you leave with more than you came in with.
Every call recorded and analyzed. What titles respond. What words win. What objections surface and why. Your GTM narrative gets sharper with every campaign we run.
Every recording, every outcome, every data point — logged and available to you. No black boxes. No vague reports. You see exactly what happened on every dial and why it went the way it did.

Qualitative and quantitative outcomes. See every conversation, learn from what's being actually said on the phone.
Every engagement comes with a reporting dashboard like this. Your data. Your calls.
Your market — organized and available from day one.
I've spent over a decade in outbound sales — building teams, running campaigns, and studying what actually makes a cold call work. Before SmartBound, I built and ran other agencies in this space. I've seen how most of them operate.
The standard playbook is high-volume, low-skill, offshore execution. Dial as many numbers as possible, report meetings booked, and call it a day. The client never really knows what's being said on their behalf.
SmartBound is built on a different premise. Every conversation our team has is recorded, analyzed, and fed back to you as structured intelligence. We don't make assumptions about your market — we go find out. The patterns that emerge from hundreds of real conversations with your actual prospects are more valuable than any consultant's opinion or analyst report.
This is US-based, senior-level work. We take a limited number of engagements at a time — not because we can't scale, but because doing this right requires real attention. If we take on your campaign, you have our full focus.
— Kevin Hopp, Founder & CEO, SmartBound
We run one focused campaign at a time — one persona, one market, one objective. You get a partner who thinks about your go-to-market, not a vendor who dials for dollars. Every campaign ends with a formal debrief: what happened, what the data says, and what we recommend next.
You don't have reps. We are your reps. We source the list, build the script, make the calls, qualify the prospects, and hand you sales meetings — plus the market intelligence behind every conversation.
Your team handles closing. We handle cold market entry — feeding your reps better leads, sharper messaging, and real-market data that makes every conversation they have more effective.
Our engagements are built for B2B companies with a real go-to-market challenge — founders who need to know if their market will pick up the phone, heads of sales who need pipeline without adding headcount, and growth teams who need hard data from real conversations before they scale.
SmartBound isn't the cheapest option in this space and we're not trying to be. If you want volume for volume's sake, there are plenty of vendors who will sell you that. If you want your market to actually talk back — book a call.
Our primary vertical is B2B SaaS. We also work extensively with VC and PE-backed companies building pipeline ahead of growth milestones. We don't take every engagement — only the ones we know we can win.
The SmartBound Advantage
We only work on 3- or 6-month retainers. Not because we want longer contracts — because that's what it takes to get it right for you. Consistent learning over time is how intelligence compounds into GTM strategy.
Your first campaign teaches us who you're selling to. Your second makes us dangerous in that market. By month six, you have a market intelligence asset no competitor can replicate. The trial de-risks the commitment — so you know it's working before you go long.
Begin with a trial to validate. Then commit to a real engagement — 90 days or 6 months — and let the intelligence accumulate.
All engagements include US-based callers, dedicated campaign management, full call recordings, and weekly intelligence reporting.
We assess fit before every engagement. If we're not the right call, we'll tell you.
What does SmartBound actually deliver?
Three things, on every engagement: qualified conversations with real decision-makers in your target market, structured market intelligence on what's landing and what isn't, and full call recordings for every single dial. You see exactly what happened on every call and why it went the way it did.
How much does it cost?
The trial campaign is $2,500 for 35 qualified conversations — and that $2,500 is credited toward your retainer if you move forward. Ongoing retainers (90-day and 6-month) are custom-priced based on campaign scope. SmartBound is a premium service. If you're looking for the cheapest meetings available, we're not it.
What counts as a qualified conversation?
A real back-and-forth with the target contact where the rep learns something meaningful, interest is expressed, a question is asked, or a meeting is booked. Wrong numbers, sub-60-second connections, and voicemails are never billed. When in doubt, we don't charge.
How fast do we see results?
Most clients have their first conversations within two weeks of launch. The trial delivers 35 conversations in roughly one focused week. You'll have enough data to make a clear go/no-go decision before you ever commit to a retainer.
Are your callers based in the US?
Yes. Every SmartBound caller is US-based and trained in real two-way conversation — not script-reading. You get full recordings of every call so you hear exactly what's being said in your market on your behalf.
Who is this not right for?
Companies looking for high-volume, low-cost overseas meeting setting. Solo founders or bootstrapped businesses without the budget for a premium engagement. If you're not sure whether you qualify, book a call — we'll tell you honestly whether it's a fit.
