How Let Growth Elevated Sideline Design's Sales Game
Posted by

Sideline Design revolutionizes university sports with software that automates communications and graphics for coaches, yet they struggled to consistently secure meetings for their sales team. Enter Let Growth, whose innovative lead generation strategies turned the game around.
The Challenge:
- Consistent Meetings: The crux was to generate a steady flow of meetings. Despite having a sales team, reliance was heavily on the founder, who was the only one achieving significant success in this area.
- Industry-Specific Hurdles: Previous engagements with lead generation agencies were fruitless. Sideline Design’s niche market deterred agencies, compounded by high retainer fees without performance assurance.
The Let Growth Solution:
No-Risk Performance Model: Charged only for qualified meetings, aligning costs with actual results.

Personalization: Scraped athletic contacts from all U.S. universities, customizing outreach with recent scores and mascots, boosting reply rates by 50%.

Compelling Storytelling: Highlighted client success stories, demonstrating tangible time savings and efficiency gains from using Sideline Design’s software.

A/B Testing: Conducted a comprehensive audit and revamped communication strategies, employing A/B testing to refine messaging.

The Results:
Immediate Impact: First month (October 2023) achieved 18 meetings, surpassing the initial goal of 10.

Record-Breaking: February 2024 delivered 9 meetings in just one day (this was written February 6th).

Overall: In the past 90 days we have secured more than 100 qualified meetings

Top-Tier Deals: Secured meetings and contracts with prestigious athletic programs, including UVA, Harvard, and Stanford.

Conclusion:
Let Growth’s approach to lead generation—focusing on performance, personalization, and powerful storytelling—helped Sideline Design smash their sales targets. Our case study with Sideline Design showcases how a tailored strategy can lead to significant business growth.
