We build cohorts of your lost deals and use win-loss research to design targeted outreach that outperforms traditional nurture.

Our Process

Recover 5%+ of pipeline from deals you already lost

The reasons your closed deals were lost no longer hold. Your roadmap has closed the gaps. New evidence corrects what they got wrong about you. Their budget cycles have reset. So the pipeline is still there. We map it, build the campaign, and hand your reps the meetings.

01

Phase One · Map the research to lost deals

Discover which lost deals are winnable

We process your closed-lost and stalled deals, find the loss-reason patterns, and sort accounts into recoverable cohorts tiered by potential. You get a prioritized list of your best leads based on your real data.

Phase Two · Gather the evidence for your right-to-win

Find out what’s changed since they said no

We check your roadmap and recent fixes against the reasons you lost, flag the objections that are now out of date, and pull the closed-won stories that counter each one. Every re-approach stands on something that’s genuinely different now.

65% of buyers don’t give you the real reason you lost.

Phase Three · Develop the communications

Write the message for each cohort from scratch

Every sequence is built for one loss reason and one buyer type — angle, objection handling, and proof chosen for that cohort, and signed off by your team before it sends. A buyer who cut you on a missed requirement hears something different from one who never switched.

Phase Four · Run and learn

Re-engaged accounts route back to your sales team

We run a targeted campaign across email, texting, and calling. Re-engaged accounts route back to your reps knowing exactly what the buyer responded to. Every wave sharpens the next.

“Buried Wins is helping us understand the real reasons behind our deal outcomes — unbiased insight into how customers compare us to competitors, what drives their final purchasing decisions, and where we’re losing or gaining ground. It helps us improve win rates and refine our competitive positioning.”

Not every lost deal = dead. Most teams just can’t tell the difference.

The difference between a win-back program that works and a desperate email blast is an understanding of loss cohorts and mapping your renewed right to win. Without it, you’re guessing. And what’s worse: your reps know you’re guessing, which is why they won’t follow through with it.

We’ve got a proven process in place we’ve tested with dozens of companies.
And we can do it even if…

  • Your closed-lost list is a mess of inconsistent reason codesWe work with the raw data
  • Sales is sure they already know why you loseWe provide the insights buyers only give to a neutral third party
  • You’ve never run outreach like thisWe build and run the campaign for you
  • Some deals really are deadWe’ll get you a customized map of your addressable segment before you commit a dollar
“Their research surfaced that a core integration was a true competitive differentiator — part of the market was buying specifically because of it. That sharpened our messaging, informed our roadmap, and showed up in pipeline growth.”
