Sortly's inbound growth had plateaued and sales needed more meetings.

Sortly sells inventory software and grew fast on inbound, until that growth levelled off. Its next buyers were field-service businesses: contractors, HVAC firms and pool-service companies that track tools and stock across sites.

Growth Rhino's team set up Sortly's outbound channel: the sending infrastructure, a qualified account list and the offers. An SDR followed up every interested reply and booked a meeting with Sortly's account executives.

What Sortly needed

Inbound had stopped growing, so Sortly needed a second channel that could bring field-service buyers to its account executives.

What our team ran for Sortly

  1. 01

    Finding, qualifying and contacting the accounts

    Our team started by pulling field-service businesses from Google Maps: construction contractors, pool services, HVAC companies and similar trades. We enriched and qualified each account in Clay. Cold emails went out with messages written for each segment and a choice of next step: a demo, an inventory audit or an ebook. When a prospect showed interest, an SDR followed up directly to book a meeting with Sortly's account executive.

◇ What changed

What changed for Sortly's sales team

Between 2024 and 2026, outbound gave Sortly's sales team 50 booked meetings and $225,000 in sourced pipeline. Those meetings came from 112 positive replies, and 30 of them became qualified opportunities.

Our team ran over 100 small campaigns to test what worked. The best performer was then scaled across the list.
