Eleken achieves 40% reply rate and closes first deal in 21 days with Amplemarket Duo Copilot AI agents

The problem

Eleken's outbound relied entirely on manual processes — scraping leads, researching contacts, and following up without strong personalization — leaving too little time for actual messaging and conversion. Previous data vendors delivered mostly irrelevant contacts outside their ICP.

First attempt

Apollo and Pandamatch delivered mostly outdated or irrelevant contacts, with only 30% of Apollo leads actually relevant and most outside Eleken's ICP.
