I help financial leaders generate leads with AI on LinkedIn | LinkedIn Marketing Specialist

Growing an IT services business should not feel like guesswork. 

Most providers still rely on referrals or wait for inbound leads which leaves their pipeline empty and competitors ahead.

The truth is:
→ Buyers are already choosing providers before you reach them
→ Renewal cycles, migrations and security projects are happening without you in the room
→ Every missed lead is lost revenue your competitors collect

At Pipeline Upgrade, we replace uncertainty with a pay-on-results outbound growth system designed for IT firms:
✅ Verified, qualified leads and decision-maker meetings.
✅ Precision targeting around buying triggers such as contract renewals
✅ Predictable, scalable pipeline from 10 to 100 opportunities per month

Imagine starting each week with a calendar and CRM already filled with IT buyers ready to talk. 

That is what our clients experience: 
→ consistent growth
→ stronger authority
→ freedom from the referral trap

Are you making your clients happy  

or letting them take advantage of you?  

There's a difference.  

Some clients just need care, attention and support.  
Others need clear boundaries.  

And knowing the difference is everything.  

Because if you try to please everyone  
↳ you'll end up drained, frustrated and losing money.  

Clients will keep asking for more  
and you'll keep saying yes  
until one day you realise  
you've built a business that works for everyone but you.  

That's not how it should be.  

Your goal as a business isn't to say yes to everything.  
It's to build long-term relationships  
where both sides win.  

That means:  
- Setting clear expectations from the start  
- Communicating openly  
- Respecting your client's goals  
- But also protecting your team's time and energy  

The right clients will always respect that.  
The wrong ones won't.  

And that's how you know who to work with.  

So make your clients happy  
but never at the cost of your people or your business.  

Find the balance  
↳ and everyone wins.

I'm curious to hear how you set healthy boundaries with your clients?
Let's talk about this in the comment👇

Something was holding us back.  

But it wasn't sales. 

It was systems.  

We could win clients easily.  
But delivering them? That was the problem.  

The more clients we took  
↳ the more chaos we created. 

Although everyone kept saying:  
"You need more tools, more automations."  

But that wasn't true.  

What we really needed  
↳ was one solid system.  

A system that could grow with us.  
That wouldn't break when we added something new.  
That made it easy to plug in new parts and keep moving.  

Once we built that 
- Delivery became predictable  
- Operations ran smoother 
- The headaches disappeared  

And now
- Projects move smoothly  
- Clients get results faster  
- The whole process needs less management  

And because of that  
↳ we can finally scale without breaking what we've built.  

That's where we are now.  

The business is growing fast  
and we are hiring appointment setters to keep up.  

If you are consistent, good with people  
and want to join a team that runs on clarity and systems  
↳ DM me

A lot of people quit telesales too early.

Why?

Because they expect quick results.

A few bad calls → they lose confidence.
A few silent days → they start doubting themselves.

But here's the truth:

Discipline beats talent.
Every. Single. Time.

The ones who last know this: 
- Bad days are normal
- Rejection is feedback
- Progress takes repetition

Each "no" gets you closer to the "yes".
Each call makes you sharper.

And when you show up again and again
↳ things start to click.

The best appointment setters I've seen aren't the most charismatic.
But the ones who:
- Keep refining their pitch
- Keep improving their tonality
- Keep showing up no matter what

They don't rely on talent.
They rely on consistency.

Because at the end of the day
Discipline always wins.

By the way, we're hiring telesales reps now.

If you've got the drive and discipline to grow

DM me or tag someone who does.

Sales reps doing everything look busy.

But they rarely perform at their best.

I spoke with a sales development rep recently.
He was prospecting, emailing, calling, closing.

The whole sales cycle.

And it made me realise something...

That's not how you win.

Because when you try to master everything,
↳ You master nothing.

Think about it.

The best telemarketers I know?
They only call.

No research.
No admin.
No emails.

Just calls.

Day after day.

And they're brilliant at it.

The best researchers?
They only research.
They find what others can't.
Because that's all they do.

So as we hire our next appointment setter, we’re keeping it simple.

One job.
One focus.
One skill to master.

Because the real edge in business today isn't multitasking,
↳ It's obsession.

Be exceptional at one thing.
And you’ll never need to chase opportunities again.

We're currently hiring appointment setters @ Pipeline Upgrade
If this sounds like you, DM me.

Success story continues. The client to whom we’ve booked 80 meetings comes back to us for more.

CEO | Helping IT Suppliers Grow | Lead Gen & Appointment Setting | Pay On Results | Print IT Judge 2025

There’s nothing better than a client who comes back for more.

We’re delighted to share that Xeretec Ltd one of our long-standing clients, has renewed and expanded their partnership with us.

This follows several new business wins generated by our team. It is a huge credit to the leadership team at Xeretec who’ve made it possible.

Renewals like this are the real proof of success, results, trust and genuine collaboration.

Big thanks to everyone involved. Onwards and upwards. 🚀

The success of any company comes down to one thing  
↳ its people. 

You can have the best systems, offers or clients 
but if your people are not thriving 
nothing else matters. 

As a business owner, your job is simple:  
create an environment where people can grow.  

That means:  
- Giving feedback  
- Providing training  
- Helping them get better every day  
- Supporting them when things get tough  

If you don't  
they'll feel lost, forgotten and unmotivated.  
And soon after, they'll leave.  

In our company, we think a lot about this.  
Because our people are the cornerstone of everything we do.  

we hire the best
we work hard
and we expect the same in return.

When everyone moves in the same direction
↳ the whole company wins. 

Reading our team's feedback reminded me why we do what we do. 

Because when your people feel supported and valued
↳ they don’t just perform
↳ they thrive.

As we continue to grow our team
we are currently looking for appointment setters. 

If you are interested, DM me  or tag someone who might be.

Most hiring mistakes don't happen after you bring someone on.  

They happen when you decide who you need.  

We recently hired a sales administrator and it reminded me how much efforts goes into finding the right person.

1. You search. 
2. You interview. 
3. You test for fit. 
4. You train.

And if it doesn't work out
↳ all that time and energy are gone.  

Not just the salary, but the hours your team spent helping.  

That's why every hire matters more than you think.  

A-players don't need to be pushed.  
- They take responsibility.  
- They think ahead.  
- They make everyone around them better.  

But finding them isn't about luck.  
It's about knowing exactly who you’re looking for.  

- What kind of person fits your culture?  
- Do they thrive in structure or freedom?  
- Can they handle pressure when things get messy?  

I recently read a book Surrounded by Idiots by Thomas Erikson. 
It helped me understand what drives people and how they think.

If you’re hiring or simply want to get better with people, I'd highly recommend reading it.  

Because most people only look at hard skills.  
↳ But soft skills and personality fit often decide whether someone will actually succeed.  

The wrong fit slows everything down.  
The right one makes things flow effortlessly.  

Hiring isn’t about filling a role.  
It’s about building a team that grows together.  

By the way...

We're hiring appointment setters at Pipeline Upgrade.  

If that sounds like you  or you know someone who'd be a great fit  
↳ DM me or tag them below (I'll really appreciate your help)

A few years ago, telesales was all about one thing.  
↳ How many calls you could make in a day.  

The more you called, the more you booked.  
Simple. But exhausting.  

Now things are different.  

Telesales agents finally have leverage.  

Tools like parallel dialers call multiple lines at once  
and connect you only when someone answers.  

No manual dialling. 
No wasted time. 
No endless ringing. 

And when your pitch works  
↳ you can double your results just by adding another line.  

That's how top performers scale today.  
They don't work harder.  
They work smarter.  

In our company, every appointment setter gets access to this system.  
Fully automated. Easy to use.  
Built to help you earn more without burning out.  

Less stress.  
More calls.  
More commissions.  

By the way, we're hiring telesales agents now.  

If you're good on the phone and want to work with tools that give you leverage  
→ DM me or tag someone who'd love this.
