B2B Growth Hub
Outbound agent

A lead goes cold in minutes.
Emma calls in eight seconds.

B2B Growth Hub runs expos across the UK and Dubai. We built them Emma. She rings every new lead the moment it lands, qualifies it, and books the good ones into the show director's diary.

01The problem

Exhibition leads do not wait. Whoever calls first wins.

Someone fills in a form about exhibiting at a show. Right now, in that moment, they are interested. An hour later they are in a meeting. A day later they have spoken to a different expo, or gone off the idea entirely.

B2B Growth Hub runs shows in seven cities. Around show season, enquiries come in faster than any team can ring them back, and every hour of delay quietly costs stand sales.

01

Leads sit in the sheet for hours while the team is at a show.

02

Interest fades fast. A next day call back reaches a colder prospect.

03

Nobody has time to ask every lead the same four questions, every time.

02What Emma does

First on the phone. Every single time.

Emma watches the lead pipeline. The moment a new enquiry lands, she is dialling. Warm, natural, and straight to the point.

Calls within eight seconds

The lead lands, Emma rings it. Weekdays, nine to six, so nobody gets a midnight call.

Asks the four questions that matter

What they want from exhibiting, who they want to meet, stand size, and budget.

Books the show director's diary

She checks his live calendar on the call and books the meeting there and then. Invite sent before the call ends.

Opens with the recording notice

Said in the first sentence of every call. And she never pretends to be a person.

Logs every answer

Every answer lands in the sheet, so the team knows who is worth their time.

03A call, start to finish

Enquiry in. Meeting booked.

On the call
Hi, is that Sarah? It's Emma from B2B Growth Hub, this call may be recorded. You just asked about exhibiting at the London expo. Got two minutes?
Oh wow, that was quick. Yeah, go on.
Brilliant. What's the main goal, leads, brand awareness, or meeting investors?
Leads mostly. We'd want something around three by two.
Perfect. Our show director has Thursday at two free. Shall I book you in? The invite will be with you in a second.

Qualified, booked and logged. No human touched it.

That call started eight seconds after Sarah pressed submit. Her interest never got the chance to cool.

04When nobody answers

No answer? Emma handles that too.

Voicemail detected

Spots voicemail and leaves a proper message

If nobody picks up, Emma recognises the voicemail and leaves a short, natural message about their enquiry. Then she tries again later.

Voicemail · 0:09

"Hi, it's Emma from B2B Growth Hub, sorry we missed you. It's about your exhibition enquiry. I'll try you again later, or ring us back whenever suits."

iPhone call screening

Talks her way past call screening

Apple's screening asks who is calling. Emma introduces herself, says why she is calling, and holds on the line until the person picks up.

The person you're calling is using call screening. Say your name and the reason for your call.
"It's Emma from B2B Growth Hub, calling about your exhibition enquiry. Happy to hold."

Figures from Emma's first three weeks of calling. Real calls, logged and counted.

By the time my team even sees an enquiry, Emma has already spoken to them and there is a meeting in my calendar.

06How it works

From enquiry to booked meeting, hands free.

1

A lead lands

A form, a ticket page, a partner list. Every new enquiry drops into one pipeline.

2

Emma dials

Within seconds, with the recording notice up front and the enquiry details in hand.

3

She qualifies

Goal, audience, stand size, budget. Four answers, captured on every call.

4

The diary fills

Good fits get booked with the show director live on the call. Everyone else is logged for later.

07Common questions

What people ask about Emma.

What does Emma actually do? +
The moment a new exhibitor lead lands, she rings them. She asks what they want from exhibiting, who they want to meet, what size stand they are thinking about and what budget they are working with. If it is a fit, she checks the show director's live diary and books the meeting there and then.
Eight seconds, really? +
Yes, when a lead lands inside calling hours. Emma only dials Monday to Friday, nine to six UK time, so nobody gets a late night call. Anything that arrives out of hours is rung first thing.
What if the lead does not answer? +
She recognises the voicemail and leaves a short, natural message about their enquiry, then tries again later. She even handles Apple's iPhone call screening, introducing herself, saying why she is calling, and holding until the person picks up. Every attempt is logged, so nothing quietly falls through the cracks.
Does she say the call may be recorded? +
Yes, in the first sentence of every call, in line with UK GDPR. And she never pretends to be a person. If someone asks, she says she is a virtual assistant.
Can I hear her? +
Yes. Book a call and we will play you real calls, and if you like we can have a version of Emma ring you about your own business.
How much does something like this cost? +
Bespoke agents like Emma start from £149 a month, with self serve VoiceDart Go from £49 a month. No long contracts. Every plan includes a UK number and custom training.
