Executive Summary
Acme Engineering Products, a trusted name in industrial precision since 1956, faced a sales process stuck in the past.

After adopting Jeeva AI’s autonomous sales agents, Acme automated lead enrichment, launched highly personalized, multi-channel campaigns, integrated hiring insights into outreach, and leveraged an AI-powered chatbot for real-time lead capture. Within just four weeks, Acme amplified their global outreach fivefold, booked more meetings than the previous four months combined, and eliminated manual prospecting — all while maintaining the technical accuracy their prospects expect.
