What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our lead gen for brand strategy was chaotic—scattered spreadsheets from trade shows and endless manual LinkedIn searches. Their custom system integrated with our HubSpot and Asana setups, delivering 120 qualified leads from e-commerce RFPs in the first month alone. It's transformed how we pitch positioning strategies to DTC brands, and our quarterly revenue jumped 22% last year."
Sarah Jenkins
Growth Director, PixelForge Agency
"We were skeptical about AI for our B2B brand consulting focus, but this wasn't some off-the-shelf bot. They built it around our content strategy workflows, pulling in leads from LinkedIn and AdAge forums with spot-on enrichment for audience personas. Saved us about 15 hours a week on prospect research, and we've landed two major six-figure retainers we wouldn't have otherwise in the SaaS space."
Mike Rivera

AIQ's team customized everything to our exact specs, including GDPR-safe data sourcing from verified partner networks. In three months, our pipeline grew by 40 leads per sprint focused on regulatory strategy, and client satisfaction scores hit 95%. It's like having an extra compliance-savvy strategist on the team."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your custom lead generation differ from standard tools like HubSpot or Marketo?
Unlike subscription-based platforms that force your agency into rigid templates, our solution is engineered from the ground up to fit your unique workflows. We analyze your client acquisition patterns—such as niche targeting for creative services—and build AI models that predict high-value leads based on your historical data. This means no more wrestling with generic filters; instead, you get enriched prospects that align with your expertise in areas like digital strategy or branding. Agencies typically see a 3x improvement in lead quality within the first quarter, without the ongoing fees that eat into margins. It's ownership, not rental, tailored to professional services realities.
What data sources do you use for marketing agency leads?
We target sources relevant to your agency's focus, such as LinkedIn Sales Navigator for B2B decision-makers, industry event attendee lists, and content syndication platforms where potential clients seek marketing insights. Our AI scrapes ethically and compliantly, enriching with details like company revenue, recent funding rounds, and pain points from public reports. For example, if you specialize in e-commerce, we'll prioritize leads from retail forums and Shopify user communities. This custom approach ensures leads are not just numerous but actionable, integrating directly into your CRM to support relationship-focused follow-ups. We've helped agencies double their qualified pipeline by focusing on these precise, high-intent sources.
How long does it take to implement the custom lead generation system?
Implementation typically spans 4-6 weeks, starting with a deep dive into your current processes to avoid disruptions. Week one involves discovery sessions to map your client personas and tools. By week three, we're developing and testing the AI models. Launch happens in week five, with full optimization by week six. This phased approach minimizes downtime—your team stays productive while we build in the background. Post-launch, we provide training and iterate based on early data, ensuring the system evolves with your agency's growth. One client, a mid-sized firm, was generating leads autonomously within 45 days, transforming their quarterly planning.
Can this integrate with our existing agency software stack?
Absolutely. We specialize in deep, bidirectional integrations with tools common in marketing agencies, like HubSpot, Salesforce, Asana, Google Workspace, and analytics platforms such as Google Analytics or Mixpanel. Our custom APIs ensure leads flow seamlessly—enriched data updates records in real-time, triggering automations for client pitches or project kickoffs. No more manual exports or broken syncs that waste billable time. For instance, we can link lead scores to your project timelines, prioritizing prospects ready for immediate campaigns. This creates a unified ecosystem, reducing errors by 40% and letting your team focus on client relationships rather than data wrangling.
What kind of ROI can a marketing agency expect?
Based on our track record with similar firms, expect a 4-6x ROI within the first year, driven by higher close rates and reduced acquisition costs. Our systems deliver 2-3x more qualified leads, with agencies reporting 25-35% faster sales cycles. Costs savings come from ditching multiple subscriptions—clients often recoup investment in 3-4 months through expanded retainers. Take a recent partner: they generated $450K in new client revenue from leads our AI sourced, against a build cost under $100K. Metrics like lead-to-client conversion improve because the system personalizes outreach, resonating with prospects' specific needs in competitive markets.
Is the system compliant for handling client data in professional services?
Yes, we build compliance into every layer, adhering to GDPR, CCPA, and industry standards like SOC 2 for data security. For marketing agencies working with sensitive client info, our AI uses anonymized training data and audit trails for all lead sourcing. We implement role-based access controls and encryption to protect prospect details during enrichment and integration. This mitigates risks in regulated sectors like finance or healthcare marketing. One agency client praised how our setup passed their legal review effortlessly, allowing them to confidently scale lead gen without compliance headaches derailing client trust.
