Client Overview

Sebastian Grinkraut, CEO of Agile B2B Sales, leads a dynamic lead generation and SDR (Sales Development Representative) agency headquartered in Argentina with offices in the US. Agile B2B Sales specializes in running lead generation and appointment-setting campaigns for clients across the globe, with a focus on the US market. 

The agency operates under two primary models: providing turnkey solutions for clients and embedding in-house SDR teams to handle cold calling and outreach.

With a background in engineering and decades of sales expertise, Sebastian and his co-founder (a Stanford MBA graduate) built Agile B2B Sales to help businesses scale their sales operations. 

Their unique ability to translate complex technical products into compelling sales narratives has made them a trusted partner for clients across multiple industries.

Challenges Before Smartlead

Agile B2B Sales faced quite a few challenges – despite using some of the best cold email outbound tools in the market – in scaling their operations and delivering consistent client results. This is when they decide to switch to Smartlead to help them with the following issues:

Tool Fragmentation

The agency relied on multiple tools that lacked robust API capabilities and automation features.

Email Deliverability Issues

Managing email deliverability across multiple campaigns and clients was time-consuming and inefficient.

Manual Processes

Reporting, list management, and campaign optimization required significant manual effort, slowing down scalability and lead generation.

Limited Customization

Existing tools lacked the flexibility to integrate with their internal systems or provide advanced analytics for decision-making.

Why Smartlead?

Sebastian discovered Smartlead through industry peers and was immediately impressed by its advanced API capabilities and automation features. 

Smartlead’s ability to centralize advanced API capabilities, enhance deliverability, Spintax, inbox rotation, and real-time analytics made it the ideal solution for Agile B2B Sales’ growing needs.

Solutions and Features That Made the Difference

Advanced API for Automation

Smartlead’s robust API allowed Agile B2B Sales to automate list uploads, reporting, and campaign tracking processes. This eliminated manual tasks and enabled the team to focus on strategy and execution.

Sebastian highlighted, “The API is a game-changer for us. We built custom dashboards to cross-reference Smartlead’s analytics with our internal data, giving us unparalleled insights into campaign performance.”

SmartDelivery and SmartServers

Smartlead’s SmartDelivery feature helped the agency test email copy and accounts to ensure high deliverability rates. Combined with SmartServers, Agile B2B Sales could avoid spam filters and maintain consistent inbox placement.

“SmartDelivery and SmartServers have been instrumental in helping us navigate the ever-changing deliverability landscape,” said Sebastian.

Client Separation and Centralized Management

Smartlead’s ability to separate client accounts within the platform streamlined campaign management and reporting. This feature and white-labeling capabilities enhanced the agency’s professionalism and transparency with clients.

A/B Testing and Spintax

Agile B2B Sales leveraged Smartlead’s A/B testing and spintax features to optimize email copy and improve reply rates. These tools allowed the team to craft hyper-personalized campaigns that resonated with high-value prospects.

Results Achieved with Smartlead

  • Agile B2B Sales implemented a multi-source lead generation strategy for a retail industry client that helped them book 200+ meetings with an average of 26 monthly meetings.
  • Helped a Gaming and App development client schedule 30+ qualified meetings per month. Generated 20 new opportunities, onboarded 7 new clients monthly, and drove over $500,000 in revenue for the client.
  • Booked meetings with top-tier companies like Havas Media, Bloomingdale’s, Rent.com, X.com, and Amazon—a testament to the effectiveness of Smartlead’s tools and strategies.

Why Sebastian Recommends Smartlead

Sebastian emphasized Smartlead’s unmatched scalability, automation capabilities, and continuous innovation as key reasons for its success:

“Smartlead’s API is a game-changer. We’ve automated manual processes that would have taken hours, saving us time and resources.”
“The platform’s ability to adapt to deliverability changes and provide real-time insights has been critical to our success.”

Looking Ahead

Sebastian is excited about Smartlead’s future developments, particularly enhanced API endpoints and deeper integration capabilities. He also highlighted the importance of mirroring new features in the API to ensure seamless automation and reporting.
