Our data
What a campaign month turns into
A full board chair campaign reaches 300 new prospects a month on LinkedIn and email. Once it is running, it produces on average 45 to 48 replies per campaign month (300 new prospects), with 8 to 12 interested prospects and 5 to 8 meetings a month. Invitations to a peer group earn more replies than a sales pitch. Read the full analysis · See the benchmarks.
FAQ
Common questions
How do you help Vistage chairs recruit members?
We research CEOs and business owners who fit your group profile, reach them on LinkedIn and email in your voice, and follow up. You answer the replies yourself, with every reply in one response dashboard and a weekly reminder from us of any that still need a response. With the appointment setting add-on, $100 a month on half board or $150 a month on full board, we answer every reply and book the meetings on your calendar.
How much does member recruitment outreach cost?
Two plans: half board at $475 a month for 150 new prospects, and full board at $795 a month for 300. Both have a $295 one-time setup and run month to month with no minimum commitment and 7 days' notice to cancel. Appointment setting is an add-on: $100 a month on half board and $150 a month on full board. We answer every reply and book the meetings on your calendar.
How many meetings will I get?
On the full board plan, from month two, our chair campaigns typically bring 45 to 48 replies per campaign month (300 new prospects), with 8 to 12 interested prospects and 5 to 8 meetings a month. Half board reaches 150 new prospects a month, so we estimate about half of that: 22 to 24 replies per campaign month (150 new prospects), 4 to 6 interested prospects and 2 to 4 meetings a month.
How soon do new members join?
Month one goes into the list and the messages, and meetings usually start in month two. A chair in Los Angeles County signed the first member eight weeks after outreach began.
Which CEOs do you target?
Owners and CEOs who fit your group by company size, industry and distance from your meeting location. We check every prospect against your existing contacts before anyone is contacted.
Do you write the messages?
Yes. We write them in your voice and you approve them before anything goes out.
Are you part of Vistage?
No. Opteamus is an independent company that works with Vistage chairs. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by Vistage Worldwide.
What hours do you work?
US business hours. Our team is based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and works on US time, so you can reach us live during your working day.
How do I keep track of the replies?
Every reply your campaign brings in, on LinkedIn, InMail or email, lands in one response dashboard, kept apart from your everyday LinkedIn conversations, so replies are hard to miss. You see who each lead is and what they do, label each reply (interested, follow up, meeting booked and so on), and use it as a simple CRM for your follow-ups. It connects to HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive and Raynet, and to other CRMs through Zapier or webhooks. If you answer the replies yourself, we also send a weekly reminder of any that still need a response.
