A specialist telco lead generation provider

Successfully selling technology to telcos requires more than general marketing experience. Solutions are usually technically complex, buying decisions frequently involve multiple stakeholders, and sales cycles are often lengthy. Job titles and areas of responsibility also vary considerably between operators, making it difficult to identify and engage the people who influence or make purchasing decisions. The eCS team understands these challenges. We know the telco market, its technologies, and its organisational structures. This allows us to identify the relevant stakeholders, communicate sophisticated propositions clearly, and hold informed conversations with senior contacts across your target accounts.

Our history

eCS was established more than 25 years ago with a clear focus: to help technology companies successfully engage the telco market.

Since then, we have supported vendors ranging from innovative start-ups to some of the world’s largest and most established organisations.

During this time, the telco market has changed radically. Technologies have evolved, buying groups have become more complex, and digital channels have transformed how companies promote their solutions.

One thing has, however, remained consistent: meaningful sales opportunities begin with informed, relevant conversations. That principle continues to underpin the eCS approach today. We do not depend on mass email campaigns or treat intent data as a substitute for direct engagement. We speak with relevant contacts, develop an understanding of their requirements and arrange meetings where there is confirmed interest in learning more.

Our longstanding relationships and experience across the industry give our clients a valuable head start when entering new markets, launching new propositions or expanding within existing telco accounts.

Experience that strengthens every campaign

Working with eCS means that your campaign will:

  • Communicate complex solutions effectively because we take the time to understand your technology, proposition, competitive position, and target market. This enables our team to explain your value clearly and relate it to the challenges and priorities of each prospect.
  • Reach the right telco stakeholders because our experience helps us to identify the executives, decision-makers, and influencers responsible for specific technologies and business areas—even when their job titles differ between operators.
 
 
  • Qualify genuine interest because our approach enables us to ask relevant questions, understand current priorities, and establish whether there is genuine interest in a conversation with your sales team.
  • Uncover valuable account intelligence because our campaigns can reveal incumbent solutions and suppliers, current challenges, future projects, decision-making structures, and other information that helps your sales team progress the account.

Business development across major telco events

For over 25 years, eCS has helped technology vendors maximise their investment in major telco and technology events around the world.

Our support can begin well before an event, with targeted outreach and the recruitment of qualified meetings from agreed telco accounts. This allows sales teams to arrive with relevant conversations already scheduled rather than relying solely on passing stand traffic or chance encounters.

We can also follow up with contacts met at an exhibition, people who visited a stand or had their badge scanned, and prospects who registered for or attended a sponsored webinar,speaking session or panel. Prompt, structured follow-up helps convert event engagement into presentations, qualified sales meetings and potential pipeline opportunities.

Our experience includes campaigns connected with major industry events such as:

  • GSMA Mobile World Congress
  • DTW Ignite
  • IBC
  • Network X
  • Connected Britain
  • FYUZ
  • GITEX Global
  • FutureNet World
  • International Telecoms Week
  • Africa Tech Festival and AfricaCom
  • ANGA COM
  • MVNOs World Congress
  • The Big 5G Event

We have also supported follow-up activity relating to third-party webinars, virtual events and sponsored thought-leadership programmes delivered by organisations and mediaplatforms such as TelecomTV, Telecoms.com, Fierce Network and Light Reading.

By supporting activity before and after an event, eCS helps clients make better use of delegate data, maintain momentum with interested contacts and generate greater value from their sponsorship, exhibition and attendance budgets.
