Chief Curator / Owner

"Excellent Service, People, and Business Conversions!"

There are many things I appreciate about this program. The staff guiding me were excellent in explaining the program, strengths, process, and realistic results. It can be frustrating sometimes with hits and misses at different times, even using the same attributes. That made it challenging to know what to adjust for success. They brought potential clients to the table and showed me the sweet spot of my market. I've been able to focus my business more on the right customers and what I should emphasize.

Marketing Director

"Deceptive Sales and Zero Results"

Unfortunately, there's not much positive to say. Simply put, they promised around 10 appointments per month, but after thousands of emails sent on our behalf, we haven't received a single positive reply. The salesperson, who operated under a different company name, said we could revisit the agreement if performance was poor. However, they've refused to let us out of the contract. They were supposed to get appointments and leads, but we haven't had even one positive email reply, let alone a meeting.

"Fantastic Experience"

What I liked most was their quick adaptation to a new industry and ability to find better leads. Communication was very easy, and they constantly followed up on campaign performance. There's really nothing I dislike; initially, since this was a new industry for them, the leads weren't high quality, but after our first feedback, they fixed it quickly, and we started getting excellent options. So even a weakness became a strength because they resolved it fast. PersistIQ is finding new clients worldwide that I can work with.

"PersistIQ's Outreach Booked Meetings with Prospects"

PersistIQ booked many appointments with target companies over the past months. They curated prospect lists tailored to our audience. Their copywriting team crafted cold email campaigns with multiple variations to test and find the best messaging. They also assigned an account manager and a dedicated sales rep to oversee the entire campaign. Nothing negative so far; the platform and team are excellent. We use PersistIQ's fully-managed service for cold email outreach, email copywriting, list building, and setting appointments via their SDR service.

Director of business development

"Excellent Business Partnership and Marketing Success"

We work with a very specific audience, and the campaigns they managed booked over 30 meetings with target companies, leading to new deals and significant business growth! This has been our best outbound effort; we would never have achieved this traction without PersistIQ. Now our brand has greater visibility with key players. There's nothing we dislike; we are hands-on and involved. The PersistIQ team was patient and professional, guiding us through every step. They automated call email campaigns, managed them, and monitored replies.

President

"Zero ROI - Terrible Performance"

We contracted PersistIQ for a cold email lead generation campaign. The minimum contract was six months, and after thousands of emails, we got only three meetings. Their SDR lost leads due to poor responses, and the email scripts were awful. We asked to cancel after three months because of poor performance, but they refused. If you want to lose $10k, just flush it down the toilet. They don't take responsibility for not delivering the results they promised. They kept trying new scripts that were too wordy, off-target, and offered no value.

Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

"Great for Booking Meetings via Email Marketing for Small Teams"

This was incredibly useful to activate as needed to support a small team, especially in niche areas where we lacked internal resources. It takes some time to set up, and occasionally their human agents book meetings with unsuitable prospects. PersistIQ allows us to focus on our core areas while they target more niche segments.

"PersistIQ: A Game Changer for Lead Generation"

Persist's ability to automate the sales process and streamline outreach is an amazing tool for engaging prospects. Setup was very easy, and customer support was outstanding. There wasn't anything wrong with it; it just wasn't a good fit for our specific business. PersistIQ created personalized email campaigns, tracked responses, and followed up immediately. I loved how it monitored campaign performance and individual outreach to optimize results.

Strategic Advisor

"High Cost, No Results: Not Recommended"

I appreciate the concept of PersistIQ automating outreach to potential targets, but that's where the positives end. We hired PersistIQ for cold email outreach, hoping for qualified leads and client introductions. After sending over 5,500 emails across several campaigns, we got zero positive responses or meetings. While their team was initially responsive, the strategy and execution consistently missed the mark with our target audience. This led to wasted investment and a risk to our brand due to negative feedback. Given the cost and promises, the lack of even one productive lead is alarming. I cannot recommend their service to other firms seeking real engagement and results. PersistIQ is meant to simplify consistent, targeted outreach via automated cold email campaigns, streamlining lead generation and managing large-scale communications. In theory, those benefits should help, but in our case, they were not realized.

Verified Reviewer

"Poor Service and Lack of Responsibility"

The concept was appealing: they handle everything, sending to an agreed list each month with three emails per prospect. Initial setup was straightforward because they took care of it. However, my experience was negative. We approved the mailing lists, but after the first month, they went ahead and used their own list without consent. They failed to deliver on the statement of work and declined a refund. I use PersistIQ for direct mail, as it leverages AI to manage email outreach from a target list.
