Is your sales team struggling? 
(The whole company is sinking.) 

No revenue. 
No growth. 
No jobs. 

If sales isn’t working, nothing else matters. 

You’re in the same boat. 

Even if you’re not in sales, you are still losing. 

When sales miss quota; 
(potentially) 

- Ops lose headcount 
- Marketing loses budget 
- Leadership loses investor trust 

Everyone loses momentum 

When sales struggle, it’s not their problem. 
It’s everyone’s problem. 

Because no revenue = no company to run. 

It’s everyone’s job.

Co-Founder at SaasFluence | B2B Influencer Marketing for SaaS Brands

I’m Denis, Co-Founder of SaasFluence

We’re an influencer marketing agency helping B2B tech brands drive demand and visibility by partnering with LinkedIn influencers.

Currently — with over 200 influencers, we manage influencer marketing programs for B2B sales tech companies like Maildoso, Icypeas, Saleshandy, Fowla, and others.

Why We Started SaasFluence

Before SaasFluence, I ran an outbound agency, Applus Leads. Through that experience, we worked with some incredible B2B tech brands — companies with fantastic products and real value to offer. But despite outbound efforts (cold calls and cold emails), they weren’t getting the traction they deserved.

A big reason?

Their LinkedIn presence and engagement were minimal. Most had only a few hundred page followers and very little visibility in the market.

That lack of recognition made it hard to convert cold leads. Without social proof or brand mentions, prospects were hesitant to engage — especially in the highly competitive sales tech space.
What they really needed was a new approach — one that would:

1. Build credibility
2. Earn trust
3. And drive demand by establishing them as trusted solutions in the market.

That’s where SaasFluence comes in.

Our mission;
To help B2B tech brands leverage influencer marketing to drive demand, increase sales, and grow.

How We Can Help

☑ If you’re a B2B tech founder or business leader with an influencer marketing budget of at least $10K/month,
 ☑ And you don’t have the time to run campaigns or manage influencer partnerships,
We’ll handle it for you.

We’ve launched thousands of LinkedIn-sponsored campaigns, and our clients are seeing exceptional ROI.

If you’re curious, DM me and I’ll share a few of our client case studies so you can learn more about our systems and results.

I am so tired of seeing 20-year-olds giving me life advice on this app.

I scroll my feed and I see people who haven't really done any work yet telling us how we should run our companies.

Why is everyone trying so hard to be a teacher before they have even been a student?

I don't want to hear your philosophy or your 'mindset' tips that you found in a book. I want to see what you did with your own two hands.

Show me the scars from a mistake you made last month. Tell me about the client you lost or the project that blew up in your face because you messed up. 

That is the only way I can believe that what you are saying is something I can use in my life too.

We have enough people on LinkedIn talking about how things should be. We need more people showing how things are.

I would rather follow a person who is failing and being honest about it than a "thought leader" who has never done any work.

Do you want to see more advice or more stories from trenches?

I found a way to stop my sales team from wasting 4 hours a day clicking on LinkedIn profiles.

When a post goes viral, you get hundreds of comments. Most of them are junk. You get students, bots and "nice post!" comments.

Not a while back my team spent their whole mornings clicking on profiles just to find one or two people who could buy from us.

Now we use Trigify.io to do the dirty work:

→ We tell Trigify to watch a specific creator's post.

→ We set a filter. We only want to know about people with titles like "Founder," "VP of Sales," or "Head of Marketing."

→ Trigify.io ignores the 450 comments from students and bots.

→ It scrapes the 50 comments that match our filter.

→ It sends those 50 names directly to our CRM as "Warm Leads."

Now the sales team does not waste time. They wake up to a list of 50 people who fit our ICP and who are already engaged with the topic.

Do you manually check comments or do you just ignore them?
