Quick Answer

If you've already used Origami to find PEO prospects at mid-size Las Vegas companies, you have a targeted list. The next move: run an email campaign—and Origami's built-in email sequencer lets you create and send multi-touch sequences without leaving the platform. This guide walks through refining that list, crafting a 3-touch sequence that speaks directly to PEO buyers in Vegas, and launching the campaign in one workflow.


You didn't build a list just to stare at it.

After following the how to build a list of PEO Prospects at Mid-Size Companies in Las Vegas guide, you have a sheet of names, verified emails, phone numbers, and company details sitting inside Origami. The real work starts now: getting those names into conversations.

I'm going to walk through exactly how I'd run this email campaign—from list refinement to the final breakup message—using Origami's sequencer. No exporting CSVs, no separate ESP, no manual stitching. Everything happens in the same dashboard where you built the list.

We'll cover:

  • How to segment and qualify your Las Vegas PEO prospect list so you're not blasting everyone
  • The two ways to create your sequence inside Origami (paste your own templates or let the AI agent write it)
  • A complete 3-touch email sequence I've used on PEO buyers in mid-market companies—subject lines, preview text, body copy—ready for you to steal
  • How to launch, track replies, and what response rates to expect in 2026

Let's get tactical.


Step 1: Refine and Segment Your Prospect List

Your initial list probably looks solid on paper: decision-makers at companies with 50–500 employees in the Las Vegas metro. But sending the same email to the CFO of a construction firm and the HR director of a boutique hotel group will tank your reply rate.

Open your list in Origami. Use the built-in filters to slice it into segments you can message differently. I usually create three buckets:

1. Industry verticals – In Vegas, you'll see high concentrations of hospitality (casinos, hotels, restaurants), construction/trades, healthcare, and business services. PEO pain points differ: hospitality struggles with high turnover and multi-language compliance; construction cares about workers' comp and safety programs.

2. Role level – Separate C-suite (CFO, CEO) from operational leaders (VP of HR, Director of People Ops). The CFO wants numbers; the HR director wants to know how much admin time they'll get back.

3. Company headcount – Even within the 50–500 range, a 60-person company has different HR infrastructure than a 450-person firm. Split at roughly 50–150 and 151–500.

Now, remove bad fits. Drop anyone with a generic role like "Business Development" or "Marketing Manager"—they don't own the PEO decision. If Origami's enrichment shows a contact recently changed jobs (within 90 days), bump them lower in priority; they're still learning the new org.

What "qualified" looks like for this audience
A qualified PEO prospect in mid-size Las Vegas is someone who:

  • Holds a role with HR, finance, or operational oversight (CFO, Director of HR, VP of People, Controller, Owner)
  • Works at a company where HR isn't their full-time focus—they might be the CFO who also handles benefits
  • Is at a business that's growing (headcount up 15%+ in the last year) or facing compliance stress (OSHA, Nevada labor laws, ACA reporting)
  • Likely already knows what a PEO is, but may not have seriously evaluated one recently

If Origami has enriched technographic data, look for companies still running payroll in-house or using bare-bones tools—those often convert fastest.

Tag each segment clearly. You'll use those tags to trigger different sequences or at least personalization tokens inside the same sequence.

Still need a list? If you haven't built your prospect list yet, I covered the step-by-step search and enrichment process in how to build a list of PEO Prospects at Mid-Size Companies in Las Vegas. That post shows the exact prompt to use inside Origami and what to expect for output.


Step 2: Create the Email Sequence (Two Ways)

Origami gives you two paths to build your outreach sequence:

Option 1 – Paste your own templates
Write your 3-touch sequence from scratch (I'll give you full copy below). You set the delays between touches—Day 1, Day 3, Day 7 is the most common cadence I use for PEO outreach. Paste each message into Origami's sequencer, map placeholders like [First Name] to the contact fields, and you're done.

Option 2 – Let the AI agent write it
You can ask Origami's AI agent to generate a personalized 3-day email sequence for all your leads automatically. The agent drafts messages based on each lead's profile data—title, company, industry, even recent news. Every message feels custom because it is. I still review the copy before sending, but the heavy lifting is done.

Whichever route you choose, the sequence lives inside Origami—no exporting, no connecting a third-party tool.

The 3-Touch PEO Sequence You Can Steal

Here's the exact sequence I've run on PEO prospects at mid-size Vegas companies. Each message is 50–100 words, direct, and written to land with the person who's drowning in HR administrivia.

Touch 1 – Day 1: Initial Cold Email

Subject: Question about your HR workload
Preview text: Running 200 employees without extra hands?

Hi [First Name],

Running a mid-size business in Las Vegas means HR never clocks out. Between compliance, benefits, and payroll, it's easy to get buried—especially when those aren't your only job.

Many local firms our size use a PEO to offload HR and reduce costs without losing control. Worth a 10-minute call to see if it fits your operation?

[Your Name]

Why this works: It acknowledges the Las Vegas context (24/7 city, thin HR teams) and positions a PEO as a tool they already know about—no education needed. The call-to-action is low friction.


Touch 2 – Day 3: Follow-Up (Different Angle)

Subject: Quick follow-up re: HR efficiency
Preview text: One stat that might surprise you

Hi [First Name],

A mid-size Vegas company we worked with cut benefits costs 18% and saved 20+ hours/week after partnering with a PEO. They had the same skepticism most owners do.

If you're open to seeing the numbers, I can share a short comparison tailored to your industry. No strings, no pressure—just data.

[Your Name]

Why this works: It introduces a concrete result without giving a pitch. Citing "mid-size Vegas company" builds local credibility. The follow-up doesn't just repeat the first email—it offers proof.


Touch 3 – Day 7: Final Breakup Email

Subject: Closing the loop
Preview text: No more emails from me after this

Hi [First Name],

I won't keep knocking. If the timing's off, no worries at all.

If you ever want to explore how a PEO could simplify HR for your Las Vegas team, my inbox is open. Hope the rest of your quarter wraps well.

[Your Name]

Why this works: It's polite, doesn't burn the bridge, and leaves the door open. Many replies come after a breakup email because it removes the pressure.


Personalization Tokens You Can Use

Inside Origami, you can insert dynamic fields so every email pulls real contact data:

  • [First Name] – obvious
  • [Company Name] – use sparingly; it can feel spammy if overused
  • [Industry Tag] – e.g., "hospitality" or "construction" to tweak the second message's example
  • [City] – pre-filled as Las Vegas, but useful if you expand to other markets

If you let the AI agent generate the sequence, it will automatically weave in richer details—like the prospect's tech stack or a recent company milestone—to make the message feel 1:1.


Step 3: Send the Sequence Directly from Origami

Now that your list is segmented and your sequence is built, it's time to ship.

Inside Origami, you'll select the contacts (or tagged segments) and click "Launch Sequence." No exports, no syncing with an external mail server—the sequencer sends the emails natively from the platform. You set the delay between touches (Day 1, Day 3, Day 7, or any cadence you want) and it runs automatically.

What happens after you hit send

  • Tracking (opens, clicks, replies) – All in the same dashboard where you built the list. You can see which contacts opened, which clicked, and who replied—directly alongside their enriched profile data (title, company, tech stack). That context is gold when you're prioritizing follow-up calls.

  • Prospect context preserved – While looking at a contact's activity, you still see why you reached out. Their job title, company headcount, and industry are all visible, so you don't have to flip between tabs.

  • Automatic un-enrollment – If someone replies, they get pulled from the sequence automatically. No accidentally sending a breakup email after they've already booked a meeting.

  • No extra sending cost – The sequencer is included on all paid Origami plans. You only pay for the credits to enrich leads; sending is free. The free plan gives you 1,000 credits (no credit card required), enough to test a small sequence before committing.

Expected response rates (and when to iterate)

For PEO outreach to mid-size Las Vegas companies in 2026, here's what I realistically see:

  • Open rate: 30–50% on a warm list with verified emails. Origami's verified email enrichment keeps bounces under 3%.
  • Reply rate: 3–8% for a well-targeted 3-touch sequence. Half will be "not interested," but the other half are conversations worth having.
  • Meeting booked rate: 10–20% of those replies turn into calls, meaning 1–3 meetings per 100 contacts.

If you're below these numbers after 200 sends, first iterate on the message. Try different subject lines, shorten the emails further, or switch the second touch angle. If opens are fine but replies are dead, the offer isn't compelling—test a more specific value prop.

If opens are terrible, your list isn't as clean as you thought. Go back to Origami, refine the industry filter, or add a headcount lower bound. Sending irrelevant mail to the wrong role kills deliverability.
