What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our partners spent Fridays manually chasing lead details across our CRM and project databases—it was draining our billable capacity. Now, the system pulls in accurate firmographics, executive bios, and past advisory project histories overnight. We've landed two major healthcare policy clients in three months, all from better-qualified pursuits that aligned with their regulatory needs."
Sarah Mitchell
Senior Partner, Apex Strategy Advisors (specializing in healthcare consulting)
"We were skeptical about automation fitting our bespoke management consulting model, but this enrichment tool integrates seamlessly with our Salesforce and internal knowledge management systems. It flagged a key prospect's recent merger and integration challenges, which we wove into our operational advisory pitch—closed the $2M deal in record time last quarter."
David Chen
Managing Director, Nexus Consulting Group (focused on post-merger integrations)
"Manual data entry for firmographics was killing our momentum on complex RFP responses in the public sector. After implementation, lead quality jumped with automated insights into government compliance histories; we're seeing 30% more engagements from enriched profiles. It's like having an extra research analyst on the team without the headcount overhead."

What's Included
Common Questions
How does this differ from off-the-shelf lead enrichment tools?
Off-the-shelf options apply generic algorithms that overlook the nuances of consulting, like matching leads to specific expertise areas or RFP timelines. We build a custom AI tailored to your firm's workflow—integrating directly with your CRM and training on your historical data. This ensures enriched leads are not just populated but strategically aligned, boosting relevance by 50% over standard tools. For instance, it can flag a prospect's recent board changes that signal advisory needs, something rigid platforms miss. Our approach replaces subscription dependencies with a owned system, scalable to your growth without added costs.
What data sources does the enrichment pull from?
We target professional services-relevant sources: LinkedIn for executive profiles, Crunchbase for funding and growth signals, industry reports from Gartner or Deloitte archives, and public filings for firm stability insights. The AI cross-verifies against your internal CRM to avoid duplicates and enrich with context like past vendor relationships. Unlike broad scrapers, our system respects compliance, focusing on ethical, public data to build credible prospect dossiers. This results in comprehensive profiles that support targeted outreach, helping firms like yours secure meetings 40% faster.
How long does implementation take for a consulting firm?
Typically 4-6 weeks for a full deployment, depending on your CRM complexity. We start with a one-week discovery to map your lead qualification process, followed by two weeks of AI model building and testing. The final phase integrates and trains your team, ensuring minimal disruption. Mid-sized consultancies often see initial value within the first month, with full ROI in 90 days through reduced manual research. Our process is iterative, so you can launch a MVP quickly and refine based on real usage, fitting seamlessly into busy advisory schedules.
Is the system secure for sensitive consulting data?
Absolutely—security is paramount in professional services. We use enterprise-grade encryption for all data in transit and at rest, with SOC 2 compliance and role-based access controls. The AI processes enrichment without storing sensitive client info long-term, and we include audit logs for transparency. For firms handling confidential RFPs, we add custom features like data masking during enrichment. This setup has protected data for over 50 deployments, ensuring your lead intel remains confidential while empowering secure, efficient client pursuits.
Can it integrate with our existing tools like Salesforce or project software?
Yes, we specialize in deep integrations with CRMs like Salesforce, HubSpot, and even niche tools like Deltek for project tracking. Our custom APIs create bidirectional syncs, automatically populating enriched fields and pulling in updates from your advisory engagements. This eliminates silos, creating a unified view of leads tied to ongoing client relationships. For example, it can link a new prospect to similar past projects, aiding cross-sell opportunities. Post-launch, we monitor for seamless performance, adapting as your tech stack evolves.
What metrics can we expect to improve?
Consulting firms typically see 70% reduction in lead research time, 35-50% uplift in outreach response rates, and 25% faster deal cycles. These stem from higher-quality data—accurate contacts mean fewer bounces, while contextual insights like industry pain points make pitches more compelling. We've tracked benchmarks showing a 3x ROI within six months for similar services, with utilization rates rising as consultants focus on billable strategy over admin. Your custom setup will include dashboards to monitor these KPIs in real-time.
