Fact sheet
Situation
Celion — an IT outsourcing and Odoo company — got 460 leads from the US, the UK, Kazakhstan and Dubai with $2,378 in ads and 35 campaigns. The Dubai contract alone from those leads was worth $186,000. Below we show the system built to win international B2B leads.
Celion is an IT company selling high-ticket B2B services: Odoo ERP, AI agents, Power BI, cybersecurity audits and custom development. Its founder is Nazrullo Nutulov.
The goal: win IT outsourcing orders from international markets and grow Odoo sales. An international client has never seen you — their decision depends on your brand, website, content and the quality of the first conversation. So ads alone weren't enough.
Execution
- Branding — A full brandbook: visuals and positioning that make the company look like a trustworthy technology partner to an international client.
- Visibility — SMM, SEO and SEM, YouTube marketing — so the client finds the company wherever they search. Brand marketing built 540 targeted followers on Instagram and 1,206 on LinkedIn.
- 35 campaigns — Four markets — four different clients. Tests by market, segment and offer; the budget moved to the campaigns that delivered.
- Sales department — A process was built to take a lead all the way to a contract.
