How The Growth Agency Achieved a 66% Reply Rate by Migrating Off HeyReach

By outgrowing the stagnant tech stack of HeyReach, James Craven utilized SalesRobot’s voice and video AI to scale a 50-client agency, achieving a massive 66% reply rate while cutting manual video prospecting time by 90%.

The Growth Agency
B2B Lead Generation

66%

Reply Rate

Two out of every three prospects engaged in a conversation, proving the power of a simplified two-step AI sequence.

51%

Acceptance Rate

By targeting highly relevant prospects, over half of the requests were accepted, resulting in a substantial pool of new connections.

Zero

Cost Friction

Despite the advanced tech, James found the credit-based system for voice/video to be highly cost-effective for large-scale agency use.

The Challenge: Before SalesRobot

Before migrating, James managed 50 clients using a combination of HeyReach and manual Loom videos. While effective, the lack of innovation in his previous tool created a "ceiling" for his agency's growth.

The HeyReach Ceiling

James found HeyReach to be "tech stack limited," failing to offer the advanced video and voice features needed to differentiate in a competitive market.

The Manual Video Bottleneck

The team relied on recording manual Loom videos after getting interest, which prevented them from using video as a high-conversion "hook" in the initial outreach.

Intern/Entry-Level Risks

Managing inboxes for 50 clients required hiring entry-level staff who often lacked the sales proficiency to handle complex replies effectively.

Tool Hopping Friction

Using separate platforms for LinkedIn and voice/video notes (like Lemlist) was either too expensive or too complex to integrate into a unified agency workflow.

The Solution:

AI-Driven Agency Scaling

Before migrating, James managed 50 clients using a combination of HeyReach and manual Loom videos. While effective, the lack of innovation in his previous tool created a "ceiling" for his agency's growth.

Key Tactics Used:

1

Automated Voice & Video AI (11 Labs)

  • James integrated 11 Labs voice synthesis to send personalized audio notes that tag the prospect's first name. This replaced generic text with high-trust "human" touchpoints without the need for manual recording.

The SOP-Driven AI Agent

  • Instead of relying on human inbox managers, James implemented the AI Appointment Setter. By feeding the AI a specific SOP (Knowledge Base) for each client, the AI manages conversations 24/7, contextually replying to "Merry Christmas" or technical objections with equal fluency.

3

Two-Step "Low-Friction" Sequence

  • Following a "less is more" philosophy, the campaign used a crisp two-step sequence:
    • Step 1: A simple connection request ("Looking forward to connecting!").
    • Step 2: A soft-touch follow-up 24 hours later asking if the solution is worth exploring.

4

Hyper-Personalized Profile Scraping

  • The tool visits each prospect's profile and uses AI to pick up specific pieces of information to write hyper-personalized intro lines, ensuring the outreach bypasses "bot filters".

Key Insights for Salesrobot Users

Migrate for Innovation

If your current tool (like HeyReach) isn't adding new features like AI agents or voice synthesis, you are falling behind your competitors.

Use the "Co-Pilot" AI

You don't have to give the AI full control immediately. Use it as a co-pilot to suggest replies, saving hours of manual drafting for your inbox managers.

Voice Over Video

While video is powerful, James noted that voice notes are often less complicated to set up and highly effective for "tagging" names to build instant rapport.
