# B2B lead generation services for Russia and the CIS

OT9 runs end-to-end B2B lead generation through cold outreach in email, Telegram and LinkedIn across Russia and the CIS. We handle targeting, contact validation, campaign infrastructure, copy, reply handling and qualified-lead handoff to your CRM, so your sales team can focus on real conversations.

**Figures:** 5.93% — of contacted companies replied across our campaigns; 6,500 — clear yeses: a request for details, a proposal or a meeting; 97.7% — of addresses accepted the email

## Outreach services by channel

Russia and the CIS require channel-specific outreach. Decision-makers often read their own email, Telegram is a working business channel, and local inbox providers need careful delivery management. We can run one channel or coordinate several, depending on where your buyers are reachable.

- Email outreach — the core B2B channel for Russia and the CIS, from sender setup and email sequences to qualified replies.
- Telegram outreach — direct contact with decision-makers when email is read infrequently or conversations move faster in messaging.
- LinkedIn outreach — for companies selling internationally and sectors where buyers are active on LinkedIn.
- Multichannel outreach — coordinated email, Telegram and LinkedIn touchpoints against one target list.
- End-to-end outreach — from ICP definition to booked meetings, with OT9 managing the operating cycle.
- Account-based campaigns — focused outreach to a defined list of target accounts when the market is narrow.
- White-label outreach for agencies — campaigns delivered under your brand for your clients.

## Target data and delivery preparation

Much of a campaign’s outcome is decided before the first message is sent. These services are also available separately for teams that run outreach in-house but need stronger data or email delivery.

- Decision-maker research and market mapping — target companies by industry, region and company size, with relevant business contacts.
- List validation and cleaning — remove invalid addresses and risky records before they damage sending reputation.
- Domain and mailbox preparation — prepare sending assets for responsible campaign delivery.
- Deliverability audit — assess email authentication, domain reputation and inbox placement issues.

## Copy, reply handling and campaign management

- Sequence and offer copywriting — emails and messages written for your ICP, not pulled from a generic template.
- Reply handling and lead qualification — sort incoming responses, remove noise and move interested contacts toward a meeting.
- Outreach and deliverability audit — identify why replies are low or messages are not reaching inboxes.
- CRM integration and reporting — pass leads and statuses into your CRM so you can follow the pipeline by campaign.
- AI-supported outreach operations — automate routine work while people handle initial decision-maker replies.

## When our lead generation services are not a fit

Cold outreach is not the right tool if you cannot clearly define your ideal customer and why they should care. It is also unlikely to work for low-ticket offers, markets made up of only a few hundred companies you already know by name, or teams unable to answer interested prospects within the same working day. In those cases, direct relationship-building or another acquisition channel is usually a better use of time.

If you are unsure whether outreach fits your market, request a [free cold outreach audit](/en/free-audit/). We will tell you directly whether a launch makes sense and which channel combination is realistic.

## Frequently asked questions

**Can we buy one service instead of a full campaign?**

Yes. We provide target-list research, validation, delivery preparation, copywriting and outreach audits as standalone services. This suits teams that run campaigns themselves but need support at a specific stage.

**Which channel should we choose: email, Telegram or LinkedIn?**

Email is the baseline channel for most B2B segments in Russia and the CIS. Telegram is useful when decision-makers work actively in messaging, while LinkedIn is more relevant for international sales and LinkedIn-active sectors. We recommend a channel mix after reviewing your audience.

**What counts as a lead?**

A lead is a reply showing clear interest: a request for details, a proposal or a meeting. Across our campaigns, we have recorded 6,500 such clear yeses. See [our guarantees](/en/guarantees/) for the result criteria.

**How long does a campaign take to launch?**

Preparation takes several weeks because target research, data validation, copy and delivery readiness need to be completed before outreach begins. We do not rush sending at the expense of sender reputation.

**Can you work with our existing contact list?**

Yes, provided it was collected lawfully and passes validation. We clean the list before launch to remove invalid records and reduce delivery risk. Across our campaigns, the bounce rate is 2.3%.

**How do you report on campaign progress?**

You receive a campaign summary covering sent messages, accepted emails, replies and qualified leads. We can also pass leads and their statuses into your CRM, allowing your team to track progress through meetings and deals.
