Is the same owner going to three firms?
No. See the exclusivity terms above: one owner routes to one firm, every delivered introduction is suppressed for 90 days, and the attribution holds for 12 months. It's not a policy line, it's how the routing is built.
How vetted is pre-vetted?
Our targeting starts with signals: hiring surges, owner and business age, recent news, the triggers that say a conversation is worth having. Then our team works every reply before anything reaches you: who the owner is, what the business looks like, where they stand on timing, whether they're serious. What clears the bar books onto your calendar. What doesn't stays with us.
How much does it cost?
Pricing is custom, quoted after we map your reachable universe on the first call, because each engagement is scoped to your thesis and the mandates we have to align with. Two things hold across every engagement: the fee is flat for the term, and clients do better on cost per signed mandate than an in-house BD hire, an agency, or a sales contractor. If they wouldn't, we tell you that instead.
What return should we expect?
Mandate conversion alone typically returns 2 to 2.5x the engagement fee in front-end work fees, before any transaction closes. A closed transaction moves the return on total spend to a multiple several times that. On the call we run the math against your actual retainer and success-fee structure, so the numbers are yours rather than a hypothetical.
How many conversations will we get?
Sized on the call, after we map your box, not before. A vendor quoting volume before seeing your reachable universe is quoting from a template. What holds on every engagement is the standard: every conversation pre-vetted by our team, every owner briefed before the call books. If your box can't sustain a meaningful cadence, you hear that before money moves.
How fast does this start producing?
Faster than you're used to. Because we run our own in-house Private IP infrastructure, there's none of the typical two-week warmup and ramp time you eat when you hire an agency. Everything is live within 7 days. First conversations tend to materialize around day 10 to 14, and realistically, first mandates close between day 60 and day 90.
We've run outbound before and it didn't work. Why would this?
We can dig into your specifics on the call, but nine times out of ten it's a positioning problem, not an outbound problem. Does this sound familiar: hired an agency, took your hands off the wheel, and hoped something worked. Or hired a lead vendor and found out the conversations were being brokered off to three other firms at the same time. That second one is a real story from one of our clients. We've dedicated thousands of hours to perfecting this motion, it's the only thing we do, and the sender is the one variable we run differently at the root: the outreach never comes from the firm that earns the fee.
Are you brokering these deals?
No. We originate and route conversations for a flat engagement fee. We don't represent either side of a transaction, we don't run processes, and we never sit between you and the owner. Once the introduction is made, the relationship and the mandate are entirely yours.
Our sector is niche. Will owners actually respond?
That's a mapping question, and we answer it before you pay us rather than after. The first call counts the owners your box can actually reach. Niche usually helps: the more specific the thesis, the more relevant the insight in the first touch, and relevance is what owners respond to. If the universe is genuinely too small to run continuously, we tell you that and save you the term.
Will owners or the market know this is connected to our firm?
Not until the moment it should be. Outreach runs under Siro's name, never yours, and your firm enters the picture only when a vetted owner is briefed for your call. Your brand never appears in the cold market, and nothing about the outreach is traceable to your firm.
Who we turn down.
Firms shopping for a volume number, firms whose target box is too small to run continuously, and firms whose box overlaps one we already represent. Exclusivity means we decline the third category on the spot, and telling you that on a thirty-minute call costs everyone less than telling you on day ninety of a signed term.
What do you need from us?
A sharp target box, a suppression list, and MDs who take the routed calls within the week and tell us what they heard. Feedback is not a courtesy, it is the input that sharpens the screen. Everything else, infrastructure to reporting, is ours.
