Validate Your Outbound Strategy
The High Kick Outbound System replaces months of expensive trial and error with a deliberate path to clarity. We help you stand up a repeatable outbound engine quickly and intelligently. Clarity first. Execution second.
The Problem
Outbound fails for predictable reasons
Most B2B teams struggle with outbound not because they lack effort, but because they lack a system. The pattern is always the same: hire reps before knowing what "good" looks like, choose channels based on opinion rather than data, guess at messaging instead of testing it, confuse frantic activity with meaningful progress, and discover the real CAC only when it's too late to course-correct.
The channel isn't the problem. The absence of a repeatable, data-driven system is. Without one, you're burning budget on hope instead of building pipeline on evidence.
Clarity first. Execution second.
The Solution
We help companies stand up a repeatable outbound engine quickly and deliberately.

Instead of months of trial and error, we:
Design the System
Build a repeatable outbound engine from the ground up with clear architecture and measurable outcomes.
Test & Validate
Run controlled experiments across channels and messaging to find what actually converts.
Measure Real CAC
Get clear unit economics before scaling, not after. Know your numbers with confidence.
Scale with Certainty
Make informed decisions about what to scale based on data, not guesswork or gut feeling.

Two Ways to Run the System
Option 1: High Kick Executes
Outsourced Execution
Best for teams that want speed to learning, clean performance data, and minimal internal lift. We design the complete outbound system and run execution using our network of experienced contractors across the right mix of channels for your market.
You get immediate capacity without the risk of early hires. We handle recruiting, training, management, and performance tracking while you focus on closing the pipeline we generate. Every test is controlled, every metric is tracked, and every insight is yours to keep.
Best For:
  • Speed to market
  • Zero internal lift
  • Clean performance data
  • Testing before hiring
Option 2: High Kick Runs the System
Your Reps, Our System
Best For:
  • Existing headcount
  • Inconsistent results
  • Lack of structure
  • Need for coaching
Best for teams that already have reps but lack clarity, consistency, or the systems needed to scale predictably. You keep your headcount. We run the engine.
We own the outbound system design, set channel strategy, coach your reps to peak performance, track the KPIs that actually matter, and continuously improve conversion rates across every stage. Your team gets the structure they need to succeed, and you get the visibility to make smart scaling decisions.
