ABOUT VERSION2

Version2 is a modern AdTech platform that gives agencies and advertisers access to top-tier DSPs without the usual friction. With ORION, their all-in-one programmatic engine, Version2 offers unified analytics, cross-channel tracking, and campaign execution across six major DSPs all under one roof. They struggled with outbound traction and consistent campaign performance and therefore they decided to partner with SalesCaptain.

What our client say about us

Client’s challenge

Before partnering with SalesCaptain, Version2’s outbound campaigns
were underperforming due to three key issues:

  • 🎯 Misaligned ICP: Targeted low-quality, ill-fitting verticals like eCommerce, CPG brands, QSRs, and generic marketing agencies.

  • ❌ Uninformed Audience: Messaging focused on DSPs, which most brands didn’t understand, leading to low resonance and poor engagement.

  • 🌎 Narrow Geography: Campaigns focused almost entirely on oversaturated U.S. markets.

Solution

SalesCaptain restructured Version2’s outbound engine from the ground up, tackling both who they targeted and how they messaged them:

1. 🎯 ICP Overhaul

We killed off poor-fit verticals and zeroed in on high-quality media and advertising agencies, not just any “marketing” firms. This focused the outreach on companies that actually understood and valued DSP access.

2. 🧑‍💼 Contact & Title Enrichment

We refined the lead list to target significantly better job titles like decision-makers in media buying and planning roles, dramatically increasing reply quality.

3. 🌍 Geographic Diversification

Instead of saturating the U.S. market, we expanded to the UK, EU, and ANZ, tapping into fresh, under-targeted regions with strong potential.

4. ✉️ Messaging Revamp

We shortened the messaging flow and shifted focus from technical explanations to specific publisher inventory they could buy. That made the value proposition tangible and actionable.
