How Electric House finds higher-quality leads with Ocean

Electric House needed prospects with the right web traffic and social media presence in the UK. Ocean was the only tool that could surface them — and the quality difference was immediate.

The customer

Electric House

Electric House is a multi-award-winning social media publishing group that organically brings brands into conversation within the DIY and home interiors community — generating unrivalled reach for their clients.

As content experts on social, Electric House's ideal client has an established social media presence, meaningful web traffic, and is based in the UK. Finding more of them required a tool that could filter on exactly those criteria.

The challenge

Finding prospects with the right social and web presence

Electric House's ideal customer needs to meet three specific criteria: enough web traffic to justify their service, an established social media presence (especially on Facebook and LinkedIn), and a UK base. Standard lead sources couldn't filter on all three at once.

They knew their work was good — but without a reliable way to find the right targets, inbound leads were inconsistent and outbound efforts were wasted on companies that would never be a fit.

"No other tool gives us the information we need on prospective customers' web traffic and use of social media."
