Build first-party prospects and acquire new customers with EPiC — lead generation for the responsible marketer. Collect consented zero-party data to communicate directly with prospects who have given clear, specific consent from the very start.
We heard what marketers were saying about lead gen. So we built a solution.
I’d love to use lead generation, but I’m not confident in the quality of the leads, where they come from, and if they are GDPR compliant.
I’d like to use lead generation, but I’m not sure if it’s scalable or profitable for my audience.
The Answer
EPiC lead generation — designed from the ground up for transparency, consent, and scale.
What EPiC stands for
Four principles. One platform.
E
Evidenced
Leads captured have an immutable, blockchain-like audit trail — detailing date, time of consent, lead source, the FPN and Privacy Policy shown, and specific consent given to your brand.
P
Privacy-first
Designed using privacy-first principles — securing people’s data, making it easy for them to understand why it’s been collected, and putting them in control throughout.
I
Intent-based
The individual knows exactly which brand they are signing up to — making it genuine first-party data, rather than a hidden list of partners. They are showing clear intent to purchase.
C
Consented
All leads include a GDPR-compliant consent receipt demonstrating the evidence, together with preference data such as interests and frequency — providing greater campaign insights.
The Process
How EPiC works
EPiC uses a unique consent platform to build trust-based relationships with your prospects from the very start — and at scale. Every step is transparent, evidenced, and GDPR compliant.
01
Prospect takes action
Leads captured have an immutable, blockchain-like audit trail — detailing date, time of consent, lead source, the FPN and Privacy Policy shown, and specific consent given to your brand.
02
Consent is captured & evidenced
An immutable audit trail is created — date, time, source, Privacy Policy shown and accepted, and the specific consent given to your brand.
03
Data is delivered to you
Clean, consented, first-party leads are delivered with full preference data — ready to activate across your chosen channels.
04
Optimise & scale
Existing customers can be excluded to keep this acquisition-focused. Campaigns are scalable and profitable — whatever your audience size.
