Promotion

A promotion means new authority, new budget, and a new mandate to prove themselves.

How it works

Someone who just got promoted is stepping into a bigger role with something to prove. They're evaluating everything their predecessor did and looking for ways to make their mark quickly. New title, new decisions, new opportunities for you.

Step 1

We track title changes

Spear monitors LinkedIn for title changes within your ICP accounts, detecting when a prospect moves into a higher seniority level with increased budget authority.

  • LinkedIn title change monitoring
  • Seniority level detection
  • ICP account matching
Step 2

You get instant alerts

When a promotion is detected, you receive their new title, expanded responsibilities, and the right context for outreach — while they're still in their first month and most open to change.

  • New title and responsibilities
  • Budget authority level
  • Recommended outreach timing

Who to target

  • Individual contributors promoted to manager or director — first time with budget
  • Directors promoted to VP — taking on broader responsibility
  • VPs promoted to C-level — now a true executive buyer

First 3 weeks

The first month after a promotion is when they're most open to new ideas and most motivated to make changes.

Any move that increases budget authority. Individual contributor to manager, director to VP, VP to C-level.

One genuine sentence of congratulations, then pivot. One line lands the human touch without wasting their time.
