In most B2B companies, everyone agrees on one thing:
“We need more good conversations with the right prospects.”

The question is how you get there.
Founders try to do it all themselves. AEs squeeze in cold calls between demos. Marketing generates leads that sit untouched in the CRM. And somewhere in the middle, pipeline stalls.
That’s where appointment setters come in.

They’re the people (or teams) whose entire job is to create qualified sales conversations on a consistent basis, not once in a while, not when someone has time, but every single week.

This post breaks down what appointment setters actually do, how they fit into a modern sales org, and when it makes sense to bring in help or use an outsourced SDR or appointment setting team like LevelUp Leads.
Tracking the right lead generation metrics separates guesswork from growth. As the B2B landscape evolves in 2026, these essential KPIs help teams focus on what truly moves pipeline and revenue forward.
B2B buyers engage across more channels than ever, and that complexity creates real challenges for marketers. Understanding where common breakdowns happen, and how to solve them can turn fragmented efforts into coordinated growth.
Let's be honest: most lead scoring systems are running on autopilot with outdated rules that someone set up three years ago and never touched again.
You know the drill. Someone downloads a whitepaper? Add 10 points. They visit the pricing page? Another 15 points. Hit 50 points total, and boom, they're "sales qualified." Your sales team gets the lead, makes the call, and... nothing. The prospect was just doing research. Or the prospect was a student. Or they already bought from your competitor six months ago.
Sound familiar?
The problem isn't that lead scoring is broken,it's that the way most of us are doing it hasn't kept pace with how buyers actually behave today. And worse, we're drowning in so many inbound leads that we can't separate the tire-kickers from the people ready to buy.
Here's the good news: AI is finally making lead scoring actually work the way it was supposed to.
Hiring Sales Development Representatives (SDRs) is essential for businesses looking to scale their sales efforts and maintain a competitive edge. A strategic approach to recruiting SDRs can significantly influence your company's revenue growth and the effectiveness of lead generation.
Connecting with professionals on LinkedIn can be daunting, especially when it comes to cold messaging. However, mastering this skill is crucial for building meaningful relationships and uncovering new opportunities. A thoughtfully crafted message can make a lasting impression and significantly enhance your networking efforts.
A Search Engine Optimization (SEO) agency is essential for enhancing your website's visibility and driving traffic. Selecting the right one is crucial for your digital marketing success, as a solid online presence is vital for any business.
In today’s digital landscape, having a solid SEO strategy is essential for B2B startups aiming to build visibility and attract potential clients. Without it, businesses risk being overshadowed by competitors and missing valuable opportunities to engage their target audience.
In today's fast-paced selling environment, businesses are increasingly turning to outsourced Sales Development Representative (SDR) solutions. These services not only streamline the lead generation process but also enable sales teams to focus on closing deals and achieving revenue targets.
