Microsoft Copilot Lead Generation: IT channel
Nexus Channel Partners
Snapshot
About this engagement
Nexus Channel Partners, a UK Microsoft channel partner, ran a Microsoft Copilot Lead Generation program with us. A qualified lead is a verified decision-maker who is evaluating now, delivered with the buying trigger, the stakeholder map, and the intent history. Leads reached the partner's sales team qualified on budget, authority, need, and timeline (BANT). The first arrived within 5 days of launch, and 184 qualified Microsoft Copilot leads arrived in 90 days. The partner's sales team converted 31 into active sales opportunities, and Nexus extended the program by six months after the first 90 days.
Challenge
What we were asked to solve
A Microsoft channel partner needs to know which decision-makers are evaluating Microsoft Copilot now, and which of them its sales team can call this quarter.
Solution
How we approached it
Microsoft Copilot Lead Generation runs in four stages: program design, asset build, outreach launch, and lead handover. Outreach reaches the buying committee with role-specific messaging for IT, finance, operations, and compliance.
Nexus extended the program by six months after the first 90 days.
