01 — The problem

Everyone knows the companies. Nobody knows the timing.

Your target group is in every directory. The crucial information isn't: who has an investment project now — and who not again for another four years?

Trade show lists & directories

Up to date once a year. Who exhibits says nothing about who is building a hall or modernizing a line this quarter.

Static company databases

Industry code, size, address — but no investment timing. You see who exists. Not who is releasing budget right now.

Broad cold outreach

90% of your target group has no project right now. Without a reason you land at the front desk — with a reason you reach the decision-maker.

02 — The investment window

Investments announce themselves publicly. Kodo reads along.

Companies announce investments, certificates and expansion publicly — on their own website under /press and /news, in the commercial register, in job postings. Kodo reads along systematically and links every signal to its source.

Which investment signals Kodo detects

Capex announcements

New lines, machines, modernizations — published by the company itself.

New halls & building permits

Whoever builds, equips: the permit comes months before the order for machines and equipment.

Grants

Approved funding means: budget available, earmarked, with a deadline.

Operations hires

New production managers and maintenance staff are hired ahead of the new line.

Our quality standard

"For us, acute means: a fresh, dated signal with a source — not a high score from old data."

A trade show appearance from two years ago doesn't make a hot lead. Kodo only classifies a company as acute when a current signal with date and evidence exists — everything else stays under observation.

03 — From signal to conversation

From Supplier to Partner

In mechanical engineering, it's not about one-off purchases, but about long-term partnerships. Kodo Leads helps you find the right moments to get started.

3.1

Describe your target profile

A single sentence is enough: what you sell, to whom, in which region. The assistant builds your search profile from it.

3.2

Have signals monitored

Kodo monitors websites, commercial registers, job postings and grant databases — and matches every new investment signal to your target profile.

3.3

Call with a reason

Decision-makers from the legal notice and commercial register, conversation openers from the signal. No cold start — a concrete reason.

Sample conversation opener generated from the signal

"You announced the new assembly line last week — for exactly these ramp-ups we deliver the feeding technology in four weeks instead of four months."

Why this works

A call during the investment window meets open budget and a concrete project plan — the same call two years later meets a full machine park.
