Zest+ Outreach

Two familiar channels, one natural rhythm

Email does the heavy lifting. LinkedIn adds the human touch in between, so your prospect recognises you before they've even replied.

Email

  • Sent from your own email address, connected straight to Zest+ Outreach
  • Replies come straight back to you, so you keep full control of the sales process
  • Nothing goes out without you seeing it. You agree the messaging first and can pause at any time

LinkedIn

  • The supporting channel for light, human touchpoints through the campaign
  • Builds familiarity and context, so it's two channels telling one story
  • Puts a face to the message. Email alone can feel cold; LinkedIn shows you're not a robot
An example sequence
  1. inLinkedInConnection request
  2. @EmailFirst email sent
  3. inLinkedInMessage sent
  4. inLinkedInEngagement: likes, follows
  5. @EmailFollow-up sent
Yes
You're in the driving seat
Response?No
The sequence carries on

Together, email and LinkedIn create a natural rhythm, not the same follow-up fired from one channel over and over.

Your address, your replies

Messages go from your own inbox and every reply lands with you.

Nothing sent blind

You approve the messaging before anything goes live.

Pause any time

Campaigns can be paused whenever you need, no questions asked.

How we work

How we put your outreach together

Six steps, in order, from a first working session to a campaign that keeps getting better.

01

We plan it properly

A 90-minute working session to:

  • Agree exactly who you want to speak to
  • Understand what matters to them
  • Define what each conversation should achieve
  • Align on tone and messaging style

OutcomeA clear audience, message direction and goal. No assumptions.

02

We shape the message

Using the workshop insights, we:

  • Write clear, engaging messaging
  • Decide what each message should do
  • Build a simple narrative that develops over time

OutcomeMessaging that feels intentional, not salesy.

03

We find your first leads

We build your first prospect list to:

  • Match people and businesses to your ideal client profile
  • Prioritise those most likely to engage
  • Check LinkedIn profiles and contact details
  • Create a focused list ready to go

OutcomeA qualified list built around your ideal audience. No random targeting.

04

We build your sequences

We design your LinkedIn and email outreach to:

  • Start real conversations with natural messages
  • Plan messages across several touchpoints
  • Match tone to your audience
  • Give you a process you can repeat

OutcomeA complete sequence, ready to use. No guesswork on what to send.

05

We train you to use it

We show you how to run it by:

  • Walking through the sequence step by step
  • Showing you how to personalise messages easily
  • Sharing how to turn replies into conversations
  • Making sure you feel confident running it

OutcomeA process you can run consistently and confidently.

06

We support and refine

We keep improving results by:

  • Reviewing response rates and conversation quality
  • Fine-tuning messaging as we learn
  • Adjusting targeting where needed
  • Supporting you as your goals develop

OutcomeOutreach that keeps working. No setting and forgetting.

Proof it works

Real replies from real campaigns

These are genuine LinkedIn replies from Zest+ Outreach campaigns, with names and companies removed. Not click-throughs or opens: people writing back.

  • "I'd love to get on a call and learn more about what you do."
  • "If you could share your services I can see if we can find some projects."
  • "I agree we may have a crossover, feel free to contact me at any point."

Safety, deliverability and data

Structure is what keeps it safe

This isn't about sending more messages. It's about sending the right ones, the right way, on technology built with security in mind.

Most risks come from poor setup, not the software

Problems usually start when tools are used without a strategy, teams chase volume, messages lack relevance and there are no clear rules. We reduce that risk by:

  • Designing the strategy before anything goes live
  • Controlling pacing and limits
  • Writing the messaging for you
  • Training your team before launch

Structure = safety.

Why messages get delivered (and read)

Deliverability problems usually come from too much volume, poor pacing, generic copy and shared, low-quality sending set-ups. We avoid that by design:

  • Messages go from your own email address, not a shared pool
  • Dedicated sending protects your sender reputation
  • Conservative daily limits are built in
  • Messages are spaced naturally, never fired in bulk

Zest controls volume, timing, structure and messaging quality.

How your data is protected

The platform runs on enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure and is designed to meet GDPR and international data protection standards.

  • Data is encrypted in transit and at rest
  • Secure logins and access controls
  • Only essential systems and people can access data
  • Regular, tested backups
  • Data deleted on request

Zest never sells, reuses or repurposes client data. Your data stays yours.

Why Zest built this

It exists because we needed it ourselves

Since Zest was founded we've been testing how B2B communication actually works in the real world, looking for a better way to run our own sales. Zest+ Outreach is what we landed on.

Along the way we've
  • Trialled lots of outreach platforms
  • Tested different messaging styles and tones
  • Experimented with sequencing, timing and structure
  • Seen what drives replies, and what quietly damages trust

What we learned was simple: tools alone don't create conversations. Structure and messaging do.
