Marketing Review from Nidhi Jaiswal
From the very start, their team was very professional, communicated in a timely manner, and was very familiar with B2B lead generation. We were just surprised at their team culture and their desire to work hand-in-hand with our team. It felt like they were not an external vendor but a true partner in all respects.Throughout our working time together, Martal always produced excellent work while keeping us informed and engaged. They are solution-oriented, proactive, and willing to share ideas that enhance performance. It is not often that you find a team that is so concerned about your success.What we value most is their honesty and commitment to building something that will last. They don't seek quick wins but work to build outcomes that last and can potentially expand.

Jeffrey Martin's Review Sourced from Google
I have had the absolute pleasure of working with Sasha and the North Shore Digital team for just over a year now. Since starting with them, we have seen a 50% increase in gross revenue which is absolutely astounding!In my opinion, their onboarding and client management process is second to none. You first meet with the team to discuss your business needs and expectations, then put together a marketing plan that best suits your budget. The plan is then executed via monthly meetings with your designated account exec (Sasha is wonderful!). These meetings are crucial as they allow for me to ask questions, see the results via statistics they provide and discuss making any adjustments or changes that may be necessary. It's a very proactive approach to marketing that I find very helpful and logical.As well, this is the first marketing agency I've had where I've felt that they actually know and understand my business. We operate a pool service company and I would always have challenges with this when working with other agencies. There was never enough effort given to understand what it is we do. NSD knows the importance of this and how it can help drive results. I could call Sasha now and no doubt he would be able to describe and list each and every service we offer. Well done on that!Thank you to the team at NSD for a very successful year. Here's to many more years to come!
Joshua Meise's Review Sourced from Google
I have worked with Sasha at North Shore for years and they have always done a fantastic job, so much so that I would never consider working with any other firm. They are responsive, competent and always available to help, discuss or change strategies when needed.I would be comfortable reccomending them to anyone!

Bunari - PNM Jambi's Review Sourced from Google
Reached out to Toyber after a good friend of mine insisted I speak with Michael—he said Michael basically saved their marketing. Within a few weeks, I completely understood why. Michael and his team jumped right in, after a zoom meeting he told me why our marking stopped working and what to do to fix it and it was very impressive. They fixed our landing pages that speak directly to our customers, and delivered impressive results. Definitely worth the investment.

Jace Orio's Review Sourced from Google
Our team at Harmonic Custom Graphics + Fabrication had a great experience working with the Artifact team on refreshed copy and SEO updates for our website. Our team was a bit in the dark on how to go about this type of project, but their team quickly helped make this project clear and painless.They took the time to sit down with our leadership team to better understand our business, services, audience, and our goals behind the project. We walked through every page on our website together to ensure this project not only met but exceeded our expectations. They helped shape our refreshed website copy with stronger SEO alignment, clearer messaging, and a more polished representation of Harmonic’s work and capabilities.We will most definitely be working with the Artifact team in the future on other projects.
Hannah Van Note's Review Sourced from Google
We approached Artifact to help us build a new brand identity and website. They did thorough discovery to understand our firm, services, and clientele, which set the whole project up for success. We are absolutely in love with our new visual identity, and we're already using the positioning and messaging to create well written marketing materials of our own.For the website, they coordinated custom photography and created a beautiful, easy to navigate design. If you've ever been involved in a website project, you understand how complex it can be. Communication was A+, they made the process simple, and they were flexible whenever our internal timeline shifted. We cannot recommend the team at Artifact enough!

Lead generation firms help businesses identify, attract, qualify, and nurture potential customers. When implemented effectively, these efforts can improve conversion rates, create more sales opportunities, and contribute to revenue growth.
They do this through data-driven, personalized strategies that address customer pain points, align with buyer intent, and move prospects through the sales funnel more efficiently.
According to industry research, companies using intent data to optimize lead generation campaigns have a 3x higher lead-to-customer conversion rate and 50% lower CPL.
Another dataset found that nurturing sales-ready leads drives 33% lower costs, 20% more sales opportunities, and 10% higher revenue.
Moreover, Forrester reports that sales and market-aligned lead pipelines lead to 19% faster revenue growth and 15% higher profitability.
While there is no absolute answer to the question, many marketers observe early signs of traction within 1-3 months of their lead generation campaigns for small businesses, and 6-18 months for B2B companies with longer sales cycles.
A rough timeline of results may look like:
The actual time it takes to see measurable results depends on your current brand visibility, goals, target audience, sales cycle, marketing channels, industry competition, and campaign quality.
To measure the success of a lead generation strategy, start by defining clear goals and KPIs based on your historical performance, sales process, and industry context. You should also use analytics and CRM tools to track lead quality, conversion performance, and pipeline impact over time.
Common lead generation success metrics include:

A lead generation service package typically includes lead qualification, outbound prospecting, appointment setting, email outreach, ideal customer profile (ICP), audience targeting, data sourcing, and customer relationship management and reporting.
Some lead generation companies may also offer digital marketing services, encompassing search engine optimization (SEO), paid search (e.g., Google Ads), social media (e.g., LinkedIn lead generation), content marketing, and landing page optimization.
On average, lead generation companies charge around $500-$10,000 per month or $50-$650 per lead. The final cost will depend on your lead generation channels, target audience, industry competition, content quality, and engagement model.
Here are the estimated rates of lead generation agencies:
| Engagement Model | Low Tier | Mid-Tier | High Tier |
| Cost per lead | $50-$100 per lead | $100-$250 per lead | $400-$650+ per lead |
| Monthly retainers | $500-$1,000 per month | $1,500-$5,000 per month | $10,000+ per month, especially for multi-channel, multi-region campaigns |
Approximate rates for the different lead generation channels:
Inbound leads are potential customers who initiate contact with your business or discover your brand on their own through channels such as search engines, content, social media, or referrals. These leads are typically generated when someone shows interest in your product or service and chooses to engage with your business.
An inbound lead generation strategy commonly includes:
Outbound leads are potential customers your business reaches out to first. These prospects may or may not already be aware of your brand, so outbound lead generation focuses on proactive outreach to start a conversation.
An outbound lead generation strategy generally includes:
Demand generation focuses on building awareness, interest, and trust before a prospect is ready to engage directly. Lead generation focuses on capturing that interest and turning it into identifiable, qualified leads.
