Why Mid-Funnel Acceleration
Works With LINUS
For 30 years, LINUS has been the strategy partner behind the life science industry’s most successful products and services. That’s because we know how scientific and technical customers think, and how to persuade them.
Our proprietary Insights-Led Commercial Strategy Model blends behavioral science, data, and strategic storytelling to provoke curiosity and turn insight into momentum. This approach helps companies break through their mid-funnel chokepoints, right where rational buyers stall, to convert yesterday’s stagnant prospects into tomorrow’s active customers.
Our Process in Action
A global provider of scientific instruments was under pressure to deliver sales growth. Marketing had generated an impressive number of leads, but opportunities weren’t advancing. Internally, the team blamed the economic environment for the stalled revenues.
Here’s what we uncovered:
Only 15% of stalled opportunities had actually lost funding
Close to 50% of stalled opportunities were ready to purchase now
The biggest barrier wasn’t budget, it was logistics and unclear next steps
By applying the Linus methodology, we:
Revalidated millions in pipeline
Identified the exact nurture content needed
Increased sales velocity
Delivered 116x ROI on defending pipeline and 15x ROI on sales advancement
VP, Global Marketing
If your growth is stalling between interest and action, more leads won’t save you. Momentum will.
