The Background

A Growing Branding Powerhouse

Owlworx is a growing branding and design-focused company catering to businesses in the Food & Beverage and FMCG space. Led by CEO Sunil Penugonda, Owlworx helps brands stand out through impactful branding, packaging, and visual identity - critical elements in a highly competitive consumer market.

As Owlworx continued to expand its services globally, the team wanted a reliable and scalable way to connect with decision-makers in food and beverage companies. While referrals and organic reach brought occasional opportunities, they lacked predictability and consistency.

The Challenge

Standing Out in a Crowded Market

The Food & Beverage and FMCG sectors are crowded and fast-moving. Standing out and reaching the right people - not just any contacts - was the primary challenge.

Core Requirements

Owlworx needed an appointment setting approach that could reach decision-makers in F&B companies, start meaningful conversations around branding and design, deliver qualified leads and booked appointments (not just replies), and build a predictable pipeline over time. The focus was on quality, relevance, and intent - rather than high-volume outreach.

What Changed

From Chasing Leads to Receiving Inbound Interest

After an initial warm-up phase of around three weeks, the campaign began gaining momentum. Instead of chasing leads, Owlworx started receiving inbound interest from companies that operated in the Food & Beverage sector, understood the value of strong branding, and were open to improving their brand presence and design.

The Transformation

The conversations were focused, relevant, and aligned with Owlworx's expertise - making follow-ups and sales discussions significantly more effective.

The Impact

For Owlworx, this engagement brought structure, predictability, and consistency to their client acquisition process. By clearly defining the ICP and using a targeted cold email outreach system, Owlworx was able to reach the right decision-makers, generate qualified branding-focused leads, and build a reliable pipeline in the Food & Beverage industry.

"We've been working with Marmik and his team for about a month now, and we've been really impressed with how professional and focused they are. After a warm-up phase of around three weeks, they've delivered over 20 solid leads. Their dedication and know-how in lead generation have helped boost our client acquisition. We're extremely happy with the results so far and are excited to continue the partnership."
