The client

Based in El Segundo, CA, 1800BizFund is a boutique alternative lending source specializing in working capital, equipment financing, asset-based loans, SBA loans, and fast-turnaround funding for small and mid-sized businesses nationwide. They deploy a borrower-first model for Main Street businesses underserved by traditional banks.

The challenge

1800BizFund needed a scalable, compliant, and repeatable system to drive high volumes of qualified SMB funding applicants. Their target: business owners in construction, property services, skilled trades, facility management, and commercial buildout -- often lacking access to institutional lending.

Our solution

We ran a high-volume cold email campaign on our private sequencer with personalized messaging on owner-operator data we enriched in-house. Targeting: US-based construction, HVAC, plumbing, development, and building services owners.

The results

  • 105,829 emails sent
  • 40,504 unique leads contacted
  • 1,508 replies
  • 102 qualified leads

An "interested prospect" is defined as a business owner or executive who responded positively and requested more information or a consult regarding 1800BizFund's financing solutions.
