Precision Lead Qualification: Our AI filters prospects using your agency's proven criteria for retainer potential, delivering leads 70% more likely to convert into six-figure consulting contracts. No more sifting through noise—focus on high-value clients in e-commerce consulting or B2B SaaS advisory, boosting close rates by 25% on average within the first quarter.

Agencies report 40% faster scaling of advisory services, turning one-off audits into multi-year partnerships within 6 months.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our team was drowning in leads from generic lists that never matched our SEO and content strategy expertise for mid-market clients. Their custom system now pulls in qualified digital agency owners weekly, based on our ideal client profiles, and we've landed three six-figure retainers in the last quarter alone—it's like having an extra biz dev specialist without the salary or overhead."
Sarah Kline
Growth Director, PixelForge Agency
"We juggled five tools for lead gen, including ZoomInfo and Marketo, but integrations always broke during peak Q4 campaign seasons. AIQ built us a unified engine that syncs with our HubSpot setup flawlessly, incorporating lead scoring for PPC service fits. Lead quality improved overnight, and our conversion rate jumped from 12% to 28% in just two months."
Mike Rivera
Client Services Lead, Digital Edge Marketing
"As a boutique agency focused on PPC and performance marketing, generic automation felt clunky and ignored our clients' ad spend benchmarks. Their AI scores leads based on ad spend patterns and ROI data from our past wins, saving us 15 hours a week on research. We've grown our client base by 35% this year without expanding the team, all while maintaining our 90% retainer renewal rate."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your lead generation differ from standard tools like LinkedIn Sales Navigator?
Unlike Sales Navigator's broad search capabilities, our custom AI engine is built around your agency's specific criteria—think scoring leads based on their past SEO performance or PPC spend, not just job titles. We integrate directly with your CRM for automated workflows, reducing manual exports that eat into billable time. Agencies typically see a 3x uplift in qualified leads because it's trained on your historical data, creating a feedback loop that generic tools can't match. Setup takes 4-6 weeks, with full ownership transferring to you afterward.
What data sources does the AI pull from for digital marketing leads?
We target niche channels tailored to agencies: scraping public RFPs from platforms like Upwork, analyzing LinkedIn groups for marketing exec discussions, and enriching with data from tools like Clearbit or ZoomInfo APIs. Everything is customized— for a PPC-focused agency, it might prioritize ad agency directories and Google Ads benchmark reports. Privacy is paramount; we only use ethical, compliant sources and anonymize where needed. This results in leads 40% more aligned with your services, directly feeding into your proposal process without the noise of broad databases.
Can this system integrate with our existing martech stack?
Absolutely. We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with tools like HubSpot, Marketo, Google Analytics, and even custom agency platforms. The AI lead gen engine pushes enriched data straight into your CRM fields, triggering nurture campaigns or alerting account teams via Slack. No more copy-pasting between apps. For one agency, we synced it with their project management tool to flag leads matching ongoing client verticals. This creates a unified workflow, cutting integration headaches that plague 70% of professional services firms and saving 20+ hours weekly on admin.
How long until we see results from the custom build?
From kickoff, expect a working prototype in 3-4 weeks, with full deployment in 6-8 weeks. Early wins come fast: initial lead batches start flowing within the first month, often yielding 20-30% more qualified prospects than your current methods. We benchmark against industry standards—agencies average 2.5x ROI in the first quarter by closing higher-value retainers. Post-launch, our team monitors and tweaks for optimal performance, ensuring it adapts as your client mix evolves without downtime.
What happens after the build? Do we own the system?
Yes, full ownership transfers to you upon completion—no subscriptions or hidden fees. You'll have the source code, documentation, and training for your team to maintain or expand it. This shifts you from tool dependency to a strategic asset, much like owning your IP in client work. We offer optional support retainers, but most agencies run independently, iterating based on their growth. One client reported cutting lead gen costs by 60% in year two, reinvesting into new service lines like AI-driven content audits.
Is this suitable for smaller agencies with limited budgets?
Definitely. We design for SMB agencies (10-100 team members) facing the same pains as larger ones but without enterprise budgets. Pricing starts modular—build just the core engine for under $50K, scaling as you grow. Unlike bloated subscriptions that hit $10K+ yearly, our one-time build pays off quickly through efficiency gains. A 20-person agency we worked with recouped costs in four months via two new clients, proving it's not just for big players but for ambitious firms ready to own their tech stack.
