Most shops still run new business on referral roulette.
Paid media, SEO, dev, and design shops sell predictable acquisition for clients - then fill their own bench from past champions and partner intros. When delivery is full, prospecting dies. When a champion leaves, the pipeline thins. Ken is the own-desk outbound engine: real prospects for your retainers and projects, qualification reasons on every lead, and send infrastructure that does not torch the brand you sell.

Signals for a desk that already got burned once.
You do not need another black-box sending tool. Ken reacts to how your prospects engage the outreach you send, then scores companies against the retainer and project shapes you actually sell.
Multi-click intent on service menus and client results
A SaaS founder, practice owner, or head of growth who clicks your case study, audit, or proposal link more than once is showing real interest. Ken flags it and can fire the next touch or route them to you before the thread cools.
Click dormancy after review
A prospect clicked through to your proposal or case study, then went quiet. Ken watches for that stall and re-approaches with a different angle - a tighter service cut, a channel-specific result, or a smaller first engagement - before the thread goes cold.
Sort digital marketing agency replies the moment they land
Prospects reply in two moods: “already have an agency” versus “send pricing.” Ken classifies interested, not interested, and out of office the moment a reply lands so real conversations reach you and the noise does not.
Qualified to your retainer shape
Score every company against criteria a dropdown cannot express - “SaaS 30-60 people hiring marketers, no agency-of-record on the site” or “professional services 10-60 with no in-house marketing team visible.” Ken reads LinkedIn and website signals so off-fit accounts never enter the sequence.
Built for shops that would never ship spam under their brand.
1,000 real prospects with the why on every lead.
Describe the companies you want on retainer or in the next SOW. Ken sources them, qualifies each with visible reasons, segments them, writes the sequence, and quality-scores the copy in about 2 minutes. Nothing sends until you approve it in your queue.
Spam pre-check and owned infra after Instantly/Apollo burn.
Every email is pre-checked against a replica of Gmail's spam algorithm and rewritten if it would flag. On Ken AI, prewarmed Ken inboxes and domains are paid in credits, so you can send day one without putting the client-facing domain at risk. Moving clients onto our infrastructure took inbox placement from 32% to 89%.
Copy that survives a creative director, not first-name swaps.
You fire vendors for templated work. Ken fills human-written frameworks from real prospect context - never spray-and-pray. In our 500k-email study, that personalization lifted engagement 127% over generic copy.
From ICP to a campaign you would approve.
Three steps. Nothing sends until you approve.
Describe your ideal client
Paste your site or write the ICP in plain language - paid-media retainers, SEO content programs, product builds, brand work. Headcount, industry, titles, geo, and website signals only. Edit and confirm in under a minute.

Frequently Asked Questions
What teams ask before running outbound for Digital Marketing Agencies with Ken.
This page is about your agency's own new-business desk - filling your pipeline while the team is billable. If you run outbound for clients too, Ken AI covers it: one credit balance and as many white-label client workspaces as you need. See the Agencies tab on the pricing page.
Most agency “cold email does not work” stories were bad data, generic copy, and shared sending infrastructure. Ken pre-checks every email against a spam-algorithm replica, rewrites anything that would flag, and sends on owned infrastructure. On Ken AI, prewarmed Ken inboxes and domains are paid in credits, so you can send day one without putting the primary brand domain at risk. Placement moved from 32% to 89% when clients switched onto Ken infrastructure.
No. Start free with 1,000 credits, no card, and send from your own inboxes. Or book a call and we will show a full campaign on your real prospects - sourced, qualified with reasons, segmented, written, and quality-scored.
Review the campaign first. Free sends from your own inboxes at 25 credits ($0.50) per 1,000. Ken AI is $200/mo with 200,000 sends a month. One $5,000/mo retainer pays for two years of Ken AI. Or have our team run it for you and pay per held meeting.
Those are pieces of a stack - enrichment, sending, or lists - that still need strategy, qualification reasons, copy, and deliverability babysitting. A common DIY floor is roughly $380-500/mo before founder hours, with no built campaign on 1,000 real prospects. Ken is the campaign engine plus sending infrastructure in one login: source, qualify, segment, write, score, send.
Most shops never ran quality-first outbound. Surveys show about 60% tried some form of outbound and only about 10% called it very effective - usually after weak lists and shared infra, not after a brand-safe system. Ken is additive to referrals, not a replacement. One new $5,000/mo retainer is $60,000 a year; Ken AI is $200/mo. Get early access or book a call to judge quality first.
Ken Search draws on 250M people and 24M companies from 20+ sources. Qualification and personalization stay on LinkedIn profile and website-derivable signals - headcount, titles, industry, geography, hiring pages, site content. No funding-stage or revenue claims. Every lead shows why it fits so you are not buying a naked CSV.
Your clients get a real pipeline. So should your desk.
