ACCELERATED LEAD GENERATION
We believe digital marketing and overseas trade missions have their value.
However, nothing beats the results that can be achieved through well-designed, properly executed direct sales campaigns.
Aptitude’s Digital Direct Sales methodology enables rapid prospect generation in new transatlantic markets by:
– Optimizing value propositions for US buyers
– Creating up to 300 warm leads per month
– Nurturing the lead flow into hot prospects
Our methodology is built on proven US sales best practices from industry leaders including IBM and Saleforce with our programs delivered as managed services for maximum efficiency.
SENIOR BUYER NETWORKS
Where we see exceptional opportunity and mutual synergy we’re prepared to invest in joint ventures to virtually eliminate the risk and costs of breaking into the world’s largest technology market.
We match each of our JV startups with one or more of our Business Advocates – senior executives with deep, relevant industry expertise and a rich network of senior technology buyers.
Our Business Advocates open doors into strategic account opportunities that would otherwise take years to achieve. And by enabling our startups to sell down through these C-suite contacts we dramatically reduce sales friction and time to revenue.
“We’ve had great success working with the Aptitude team to help us break into the US market. Thanks to them, we secured our first US order within just 3 months – a deal that could quickly grow into 7 figures.”
Andy Barr, CEO Marturion Technologies Ltd.

DOUBLE YOUR EXIT VALUATION
Aptitude maintains a rich network of corporations seeking the best global innovation as well as private equity firms on both the East and West Coasts that are constantly seeking high potential, incremental deal flow.
So, even from the early stages of our Joint Venture programs, we assess the best opportunities for future potential acquisition partners and drive our mutual sales strategies accordingly.
The payoff can be handsome. According to a 2017 M&A report from the European Commission, the median exit valuation in the US was over twice that in the EU.
