We moved to a warmer, shorter and less salesy tone in Danish, and leaned on the market that responded. By month three, almost one in three people we messaged wrote back.

ChallengeA proven product, looking for new customers

EasyTime is an established, Danish-owned software company with customers in more than 20 industries. It wanted new customers in Denmark and a foothold in the UK.

Its buyers feel the pain every week: no overview of hours, overtime, allowances and mileage. Getting their attention is the hard part.

The goal: start conversations with owners and managers who run field teams.

SolutionTwo markets, two languages, constant testing

We ran outreach from the CEO's profile in Danish and English. The first message test compared a curiosity opener, asking whether the person handled time registration, with a time-saving message about cutting admin work. A second message offered a short 15-minute walkthrough.

The tests were clear. Danish messages got 29% replies against 7% for the same opener in the UK, so we focused on the warmer, conversational Danish tone and adapted the UK copy.

We rewrote the CEO's headline around the value EasyTime delivers, added "point me to the right person" follow-ups that turned replies into referrals, and wrote calling scripts for following up on warm leads.

Impact160 replies and 24 warm leads

In 4 months, 422 decision makers connected with the CEO and 160 replied. In month three, 30% of the people we messaged replied.

The outreach produced 24 warm leads: 16 referrals, 7 interested prospects and a meeting.
