Challenge: Automating outreach to unlock scalable lead generation

Despite a strong value proposition, Praesidium Benefits struggled to execute outreach at scale due to manual processes, limited campaign infrastructure, and unstructured lead data. The team needed a systematic, data-driven way to reach small business decision-makers while improving open rates, reply rates, and overall campaign visibility.

Solution: Data-driven automation and dual-channel lead generation

The Opening Door partnered with Praesidium Benefits to build a fully automated cold outreach system, integrating data cleaning, personalized messaging, and CRM-enabled tracking. By combining email and LinkedIn campaigns powered by Reply.io and HubSpot, the initiative delivered exceptional engagement rates and established a repeatable methodology for sustainable outreach growth.

Their experience with us
“I’m thrilled with the outreach we created. It saved me countless hours and connected me with prospects I couldn’t have reached otherwise. The personalization in the subject lines made a huge difference, and HubSpot has been a game-changer for tracking and follow-ups. I look forward to running another campaign soon!”
