  • “A very transparent assessment: we are satisfied with the work you are doing, both in commitment and in the quality of the target you managed to reach. Your contribution has been serious and appreciated.”
    Stefano L., CEO, Cloudsome
01 /The goal

Put one cloud control layer in front of the leaders who run infrastructure

Cloudsome builds CloudOS, a cloud management platform. It works as one control layer over public clouds, private clouds and on-premises environments. It automates provisioning, deployment, scaling and self-healing. Its latest version lets IT teams run and govern infrastructure in natural language instead of scripts.

The goal was to open conversations with CTOs, CIOs and IT leaders. CloudOS had to land as the way to stop firefighting across too many clouds, consoles and scripts.

Your IT team is spread across too many clouds, consoles and scripts. What if you could run it all from one place?

02 /The execution

Three waves of targets, one message: run your cloud from one place

Growth Cab designed and ran a focused outbound campaign. It followed Cloudsome’s product as it evolved, from e-commerce hosting to a conversational cloud operating system. One promise never changed: run your infrastructure from one place. The work ran in three steps.

TargetStep 01
  1. Technical leader targeting

    Growth Cab engaged CTOs, CIOs and heads of IT. The target companies changed in three waves:

    • First: e-commerce and digital agencies
    • Then: IT service firms, hosting providers and system integrators
    • Finally: mid-sized companies running more than one cloud

    Output41 of the 62 meetings were with CTOs and CIOs.
EngageStep 02
  1. One control layer

    The message named the daily cost of complexity. Too many clouds, consoles and scripts. Teams that spend their time firefighting instead of building. Every touchpoint positioned CloudOS as one control layer, with fewer consoles and less manual work.

    OutputOne promise at every touchpoint: run your infrastructure from one place.
MeetStep 03
  1. A technical session as the meeting offer

    Growth Cab’s BDRs ran the outreach by phone and email. Each meeting was offered as a short technical session with Cloudsome’s team. It was built around the prospect’s own setup and closed with a live demo of CloudOS.

    Output62 meetings held at 55+ companies in just over a year.
03 /The results
