Initially looking to do direct outreach via email, CIENCE Technologies has since configured two projects for LeanLaw. The first project was to test email and LinkedIn outreach to mid-sized law firms and their managing partners. The second project, largely research-based, was to create a list of specific types of accountants to reach out to.

Why CIENCE
After a disappointing experience with a different vendor, LeanLaw’s marketing consultant found CIENCE NOW and appreciated the “fantastic resources on their website about how to pick a data consultant.”
Since starting a relationship with CIENCE NOW in February 2020, LeanLaw has taken notice of how quickly and efficiently the team works.
