Karias Health: Building a Broker Pipeline From Scratch
How a five-email cold campaign launched in December (the worst possible time) delivered a 56% open rate, 16% click rate, and real pipeline before January enrollment season.
The Client
Karias Health is a member engagement company that helps employers reduce costs by influencing care decisions before they become claims. They work primarily with insurance brokers who bring them into employer accounts. A relationship-driven, high-trust channel where standing out in someone's inbox is anything but easy.
Their product was strong. Their value story was proven. Their sales team knew how to close. What they were missing was a systematic, scalable way to reach new brokers. People who had never heard of Karias and had no reason to reply.
Why It Was Hard
Terrible Timing
Mid-December is one of the worst windows to run a cold campaign. Open rates drop industry-wide. People are distracted and mentally checked out before the holidays.
The List Problem
7,500 contacts in HubSpot. Brokers, investors, and partners all mixed together with minimal tagging. The real sendable list was a small fraction once exclusions were layered.
Message Precision Required
Brokers in January face peak stress. Generic outreach gets ignored instantly. The message had to connect their immediate Q1 pressure to what Karias solves, specifically enough to earn a reply.
Real-Time HubSpot Build
Britt was building the HubSpot sequence in real time as copy and strategy were being finalized. Every decision on timing, follow-up logic, and lead flagging had to be made fast.
Our Approach
Research
Mapped what brokers care about entering Q1, what makes Karias different, and what objections would most likely slow a reply.
Positioning
Established why Karias is different. Specific proof points, not vague claims. Enough to make a broker sit up and keep reading.
Email Sequence
Five emails, one job each. Introduce the pain, build credibility, create urgency, handle hesitation, close with a single CTA. A/B tested subject lines across every send.
HubSpot Logic
Built the intelligence layer: lead scoring, behavior-based flagging, and automated follow-up so sales always knew who to prioritize.
Results
- 56% open rate on cold outreach (industry average under 25%)
- 16% click rate from an audience known for ignoring inboxes
- Multiple first meetings, a lunch and learn, and measurable pipeline activity. All before January enrollment season
- Britt is now running a second wave against a fresh list of target brokers, carrying the same campaign forward with no changes
“Ben is so good at what he does that he is the first and only cold outreach I have ever responded to over the course of my 20-year career. I was lucky, because he absolutely overdelivered on what I was expecting. He walked me and my sales team through deep dive market and competitive research. He asked us all the questions that led us to solid positioning and messaging. And he stuck with me through my hundreds of 'How do I do this in HubSpot' questions. His campaign drove multiple first meetings, a lunch and learn, and pipeline activity. 10/10 would recommend.”
Tomorrow Health: Condensed. Distilled. Closed.
Tomorrow Health had a complex story and a short window to tell it. The deck had to do both. And it did.
The Client
Tomorrow Health is a home-based care platform that connects patients, health plans, and providers to the home medical equipment and services they need. Faster and with less friction than the traditional system allows. The business operates at the intersection of multiple stakeholders, multiple care pathways, and a market that is both complex and fast-moving.
Why This Was Hard
The Multi-Stakeholder Problem
A deck that tries to speak to all audiences at once ends up speaking clearly to none. Patients, plans, and providers each require distinct framing. Collapsing them into one narrative risks losing all three.
The Complexity Trap
The temptation with complex businesses is to explain everything. The discipline is knowing what to leave out, and trusting that the right framing will carry the rest.
The Positioning Gap
Without a single anchoring narrative, every slide becomes a negotiation between what matters and what's merely true.
What We Did
We started with the positioning before touching a single slide. Finding the one narrative thread that could hold the whole business together. Something specific enough to be credible, simple enough to land in a first read, and true enough that the team could stand behind it completely. From there, every slide was pressure-tested against one question: does this move the story forward, or does it just add information?
What Shipped
- Positioning alignment for the pitch narrative
- Summary pitch deck. Condensed, sequenced, and ready for the room
The Result
- Tomorrow Health closed their funding round. A short, distilled deck that carried the full weight of the business, without letting the complexity get in the way of the story.
“We were challenged with condensing a very complex pitch into a short, distilled summary pitch deck. Ben was responsive, creative, and collaborative in helping us shape the right message.”
From Five Different Pitches to One Story the Whole Team Used. All in 3 Weeks.
How a Series A value-based care platform stopped sounding like every other healthcare analytics tool and gave their sales team a story worth telling.
Who They Are
A U.S.-based Series A healthcare SaaS company selling to clinical and operational leaders at risk-bearing primary care organizations. Their founding team came out of care delivery, not Silicon Valley, and had already built and sold a previous entity in the space.
The Challenge
Too Abstract
Messaging that could have described a dozen other healthcare software companies.
No Single Story
Sales, Marketing, Product, and Clinical all told different versions. None consistently landing.
Wrong Mental Category
Prospects bucketed them incorrectly depending on which feature got introduced first.
No Time to Wait
Active prospect conversations in motion. They had weeks, not months, to get this right.
Why This Was Hard
Multi-Stakeholder Sale
Clinical, operational, and financial decision-makers each weigh value differently, and all had to be addressed.
No Established Category
The product occupied a space without a name yet. Education and persuasion had to happen simultaneously.
Strong Internal Convictions
A team with real operational experience and real opinions, making it hard to find language that was honest, specific, and accessible.
Positioning Risk Was Real
Too broad and you sound like everyone. Too narrow and you cut off market. The margin for error was thin.
What We Did
The process started with listening. To actual sales calls, not internal assumptions. Then moved from competitive mapping to a facilitated alignment session, and finally into building a narrative flexible enough to deploy across every channel at once.
What Shipped
Homepage Narrative
Hero, problem framing, features, and social proof, written for their specific buyer, not for everyone.
5-Email Nurture Sequence
Warm prospects moved from awareness to demo-ready within the same engagement window.
Revised Sales Deck
Cleaner differentiation, sharper "why now," and a storyline the whole team could stand behind.
Positioning Anchor
A single source of truth the full team could use consistently across every surface and conversation.
Results
- One narrative. Founding team stopped telling different stories in pitch meetings. Complete alignment.
- Three channels live. Homepage, nurture sequence, and sales deck all deployed within the engagement window
- Self-qualifying homepage. Copy moved from generic SaaS language to something specific enough that the right visitors knew immediately it was built for them
- Months-long internal debate resolved into a single direction
- Better prospect signals. Prospects started engaging with "tell me more" instead of "wait, what do you actually do?"
From Confusing Positioning to a Clear Story. And the Assets to Back It Up.
How a specialty healthcare SaaS found their positioning, rebuilt their demo narrative, and launched a new AI product with a full campaign. Over three months of focused work.
Who They Are
A U.S.-based healthcare SaaS company helping specialty medical practices automate and personalize the entire patient journey. From self-scheduling and digital intake to automated follow-up, reputation management, and referral processing. Their buyers are practice owners, operations leads, and marketing teams at specialty clinics. Clinics where a single patient conversion is worth thousands of dollars.
The Challenge
Inconsistent Internal Story
The team described the product differently depending on who was talking and who was in the room. A scattered message reaching a skeptical market across different mediums.
AI Product Ready, Story Wasn't
A new AI-powered product was ready to launch with zero positioning, zero copy, and zero campaign behind it. Day one was approaching fast.
Cold Outreach Underperforming
Too sales-heavy, not converting to conversations. Existing clients also needed to understand the new AI product without fearing it was coming for their jobs.
Why This Was Hard
Skeptical Buyers by Default
Specialty healthcare buyers distrust AI claims. The messaging had to clear that bar without sounding defensive or evasive about what the product actually does.
Multiple Buyer Personas
Practice owners, operations managers, and front desk coordinators care about completely different outcomes. One story couldn't do all the work but the foundation had to hold across all of them.
Sensitive AI Positioning
The new AI product automated work that real staff members were already doing. The positioning had to be honest about what it replaced without triggering resistance from the very people using it daily.
The Approach
Built the Positioning Foundation First
A clear point of view on what this product is, who it's for, what problem it solves better than anything else, and how to talk about it without sounding like every other healthcare SaaS vendor.
Rebuilt the Demo Around a Patient Persona
Used the positioning to reframe the demo narrative end-to-end following a named patient through the full journey, with multiple scenario paths depending on which buyer type was in the room.
Launched the AI Product with a Full Asset Suite
Translated the positioning into a landing page, launch emails, cold outreach, and social content. All built around the same core story, shipped on day of launch.
Rewrote Cold Outreach From the Ground Up
Plain text. Question-first. Low-link. Designed to generate a reply not push for a demo. A fundamentally different format built to land in inboxes, not bounce off them.
What Shipped
Patient Journey Video Scripts
Multiple scenarios built around a named patient persona, with scene transition direction for the design team.
AI Product Landing Page
Hero, problem framing, feature breakdown, coordinator-specific use case, FAQ, and a form above the fold.
5-Email Nurture Sequence
Designed in HubSpot with UTM tracking, workflow branching, and lead scoring logic mapped out end-to-end.
3 Cold Email Campaigns
Plain text, reply-focused, tested format, built to start conversations, not blast inboxes.
Social Content
LinkedIn long-form and short-form variants, aligned to the launch narrative.
Press Release
Ready alongside the product launch, coordinated with the full asset rollout for maximum coverage.
Results
- AI product launched with a complete story. Clear, differentiated positioning and a full asset suite on day one. No scrambling post-launch to explain what the product actually was.
- Cold outreach redesigned. A format built to land in inboxes and generate replies. Cleaner, more human, and designed to convert to conversations.
- HubSpot campaign live and sequenced. The team went from no campaign infrastructure to a fully ready, segmented, and branched workflow within the engagement window.
- Copy bottleneck removed. The internal team was freed up to execute rather than write. Strategy, copy, and campaign logic were handled.
This engagement followed the positioning framework used across all healthcare SaaS positioning projects.
Two Products. Two Markets. Zero Separation.
A health data connectivity platform had two products serving completely different buyers. And one muddled message doing a bad job of both.
Who They Are
A US-based health data connectivity company with two products serving entirely different markets:
Developer-Facing Product: Helps app developers and consumer health companies connect wearable and personal health device data to their platforms through a single API.
Health Systems Product: A clinical workflow solution built directly into the EHR, helping care teams manage patients with chronic conditions at scale.
Two very different products. Two very different buyers. One company.
The Challenge
Developer Product: Dark for Years
Positioning had gone through multiple reframes with none sticking. No campaigns, no landing page, and no active lead lists. The most recent contacts were years old.
Health Systems Product: Untargeted
More traction, but lacking the sharp, condition-specific campaign assets needed to cut through a crowded clinical market. LinkedIn ads were too broad. Cold emails weren't converting.
The Core Problem
The company needed to run two distinct go-to-market motions simultaneously. They had the infrastructure to do it. They didn't have the messaging.
Why It Was Hard
Two Distinct Voices
Technical buyers don't respond to the same language as clinical decision-makers. Getting both tones right (credible and direct without corporate vagueness) took real calibration.
Pressure to Move Fast
A BDR firm was already engaged and needed to be trained immediately. No time for a full brand architecture exercise. Positioning had to be actionable from week one.
Internal Uncertainty
No clean lead data, a tangled CRM, and shifting messaging history. The positioning work had to function as both strategy and internal alignment tool simultaneously.
What We Did
We started by separating the two products in positioning logic. Not just in copy. That canvas became the foundation for the BDR firm's training, all outbound outreach, and every downstream campaign asset.
What Shipped
Positioning Canvas
Developer-facing product canvas covering target buyer, core pain points, differentiated value, and proof points. Used to train the BDR firm and anchor all outbound.
LinkedIn Ad Copy
Condition-specific ad sets across four chronic care categories for the health systems product.
Google Ad Strategy
Competitor-targeting copy for the developer product reaching technical buyers mid-research.
Full Email Suite
Cold and nurture sequences with A/B variants, plus sales email templates. Calibrated for both product lines and funnel stages.
RPM Blueprint + Landing Page
Flagship content asset: a practical guide for health systems implementing remote patient monitoring, with full landing page copy.
Results
- BDR firm ready from day one. Launched with a clear, consistent story rather than piecing together positioning from scattered internal materials.
- Health systems got targeted assets. Condition-specific campaigns gave the team assets they could run immediately, each speaking to a specific clinical context.
- Developer product got a campaign presence at last. Google ad strategy, cold outreach, and nurture sequences built for technical buyers who had never been properly addressed in their own language.
PromptlyCheckin: 25+ Demo Signups From an AI-Powered Referral Launch
How a healthcare check-in platform used a targeted AI referral campaign to generate over 25 qualified demo signups, without paid ads or outbound.
The Client
PromptlyCheckin is a healthcare check-in and patient intake platform. They needed a way to generate qualified demo interest without relying on outbound sequences or paid acquisition channels.
What We Built
Designed and launched an AI-powered referral campaign that turned existing users and network connections into a qualified pipeline source. The campaign architecture used behavioral targeting and personalized outreach (built on the same research-first methodology used across all engagements) to reach decision-makers through warm introductions rather than cold interruptions.
Results
- 25+ qualified demo signups from a single referral launch
- Zero paid ad spend. Entirely driven by positioning and targeted outreach
- Repeatable referral architecture the team can run again
