Lead generation FAQs
What is FDI lead generation?
Foreign Direct Investment, or FDI, lead generation identifies and engages companies that may be interested in investing or expanding into another market. Our work combines sector research, company qualification and direct engagement to create relevant conversations for economic development and investment promotion agencies.
Who do you work with on lead generation?
We support economic development and investment promotion agencies seeking inward investment, as well as start-ups and growing companies exploring expansion into the UK and USA. Each programme is shaped around the client’s target sectors, markets and growth objectives.
How do you identify and qualify potential leads?
We combine local market knowledge with sector research to identify companies and relevant decision-makers. Our team then engages those organisations against the criteria agreed for the project, helping focus activity on prospects that fit your investment or business proposition.
Can you arrange meetings at trade shows and conferences?
Yes. We plan event-driven meeting programmes at trade shows, conferences and business events. Our team identifies relevant prospects, makes contact and arranges pre-set appointments so your team can make productive use of its time at the event.
Can lead generation be combined with seminars or trade missions?
Yes. We can connect lead generation with seminars, webinars, business summits and overseas trade missions. Support can include audience recruitment, speaker coordination, event production and meeting programmes, depending on the project.
How do we get started with a lead generation campaign?
Share your target markets and sectors, the types of organisations you want to reach, and your investment or business proposition. Let us know your timescale and any events you plan to attend so we can discuss the research, outreach and meeting support that best fits your objectives.
