The Company

The blockchain for big data.

Constellation Network is a leading software infrastructure tool for data provenance, integrity, and encryption. Positioned as “The Blockchain for Big Data,” Constellation's infrastructure validates and secures data pipelines, improving dataset visibility and quality so data scientists can focus on their highest-priority work — with effortless plug-and-play integration into existing systems.
The Challenge

A product-first startup with no repeatable way to sell.

Constellation came to FullFunnel in 2019 as an infrastructure startup looking to capture product-market feedback and better understand its sales cycle. The company had no repeatable lead generation model, relying on ad-hoc, one-to-one cold outreach that generated only a handful of quality conversations with decision-makers. Having focused on product over sales and marketing, Constellation was also using the same messaging across multiple buyer personas, and needed strategic positioning realignment toward a more targeted buyer demographic.
The Approach

Automated lead generation, paired with messaging realignment.

FullFunnel immediately implemented lead generation strategies to provide the product-market feedback Constellation needed to drive sales.
Layer 1

Sales automation & lead generation

A proprietary sales automation process introduced a rapid, robust lead generation program producing unique touch points based on actionable triggers — optimized systems and automated data collection produced 3x the output of a regular sales employee.

Layer 2

Messaging & positioning

Revised Constellation's value proposition to be relevant and attractive to decision-makers, including buyer persona identification, development, and effective market segmentation.

Layer 3

Targeted campaigns

Launched several targeted campaigns that generated substantive conversations and rapidly validated product-market fit.

Why It Works · FullFunnel's Role

Product-market fit needs a repeatable way to test it.

FullFunnel builds the lead generation infrastructure that lets product-first founders actually validate their positioning. This engagement is a proof point: ad-hoc outreach couldn't answer whether the product-market fit was real — a repeatable, automated program could. With a clear sales cycle, value proposition, and demand generation strategy in place, Constellation was positioned to keep trailblazing its category.
