The best automated GTM plays you’re not running
Outbound Isn’t Just Cold Emails Anymore – Here’s What Works in 2025 Here’s how top sales teams are doing it: 1️⃣ Automate & Scale Cold Emailing (Without Getting Ignored) Zapmail.ai → Automates the entire email setup process so your campaigns run smoothly. Smartlead → Sends high-volume, personalized cold emails while avoiding spam filters. 2️⃣ Identify High-Intent Prospects Before Your Competitors Do Trigify.io → Finds key intent signals (job changes, funding, new hires, website visits) so you reach out at the right time. Leadspicker → Monitors job posts, social activity & hiring changes and turns them into actionable leads. 3️⃣ Automate LinkedIn & Multichannel Outreach: Humanlinker → Personalizes LinkedIn outreach with automated video messages. Amplemarket → Sends automated voice notes on LinkedIn for a personal touch. Cold DM → Optimizes IG DMs for high-response outbound. La Growth Machine → Handles multi-channel cold outreach across LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, and more. 👉 Why This Works: People are overwhelmed with email. A LinkedIn voice note or a Twitter DM can stand out and feel more human. 4️⃣ Get The Right Data: Persana AI & Airscale → Enrich lead magnets to improve conversion rates. Clay → Provides deep, AI-powered enrichment for better prospecting. BetterContact → Enhances your contact data for more accurate targeting. 👉 The Key: Clean, enriched data = higher response rates, fewer wasted touches, and more booked meetings.

Insanely useful AI tools your team should be using right now.
Outbound stack for different maturity stages 👇 LEVEL 1: POC Stage Keep your stack lean and don’t overcomplicate. You don’t have processes and you’re probably the only one selling. Use a lean stack: - Enrich your TAM from 75+ sources (Clay) - Enrich contact info (Fullenrich/Prospeo.io) - Send emails (Smartlead/Instantly.ai) - Leverage warm intros (Sales nav/Referly) → Best suited if you have a big TAM and/or getting started LEVEL 2: Growing Stage Once you start getting traction from 1 or 2 acquisition channel(s), start prioritizing your accounts based on signals rather than industry-based criteria. You can start to : - Streamline your gtm orchestration (Cargo) - Identify website visitors (Koala/Leadfeeder) - Find companies hiring your ICP (Datachimp) - Find similar companies (Ocean.io) - Multichannels campaigns (lemlist) - Prioritize 2-3 signals (Hiring, site visitors, ...) → Best suited for SaaS between 1M to €10M ARR LEVEL 3: Scaling Stage When you’ve created clear sales playbooks and designed systems to scale your sales motion. You can start to: - Track multiple signals (Common Room/Pocus) - Leverage partnerships (introw.io/Crossbeam) - Run person-based ads (Userled/Influ2) - Use Gifts Delivery (Alyce by Sendoso) - Experiment with 2-3 signals per quarter → Best suited for SaaS with an hybrid motion → Or companies with a TAM <10,000 companies

The Modern SDR Tech Stack (How to be more efficient than whole teams) The B2B landscape has changed a ton over the last year. Reps use to have to: - Manually find accounts - Research each one 1 by 1 - Spend hours finding valid contact info But times have changed, the top reps are using the best tech. Tech that saves them hours every week, so they can: - Focus on selling - Finding the ready to buy accounts - Creating targeted messaging for them So here are the tools you need to join that list! Tool 1: A lead database You need a place to find all your prospects. For me my go to is Sales Navigator. It is the biggest B2B database and also has accurate info. This will be the base, but isn’t enough on it’s own. Tool 2: Enrichment & Orchastriction There is a reason Clay was everywhere last year. In my opinion it is the single most powerful tool for reps & teams. After pulling in your list from sales nav you can do so much like: - Find trigger events {headcount growth, open roles} - Find contact info {use a waterfall of providers to get valid info} - Create personalized messaging {use custom first lines for each prospect} What use to take 10-20 hours a week of manual work can be automated in minutes now. Clay should be the centre piece of your GTM. Relevancy + Personalization = The highest response rate Tool 3: Sequencing Multi channel messaging is the best way to get replies consistently. You need to be famialr across multiple channels. - Cold calls - Cold DMs - Cold emails For me tools like Lemlist are great for this. Instead of setting hundreds of maual tasks that pile up, I can set the majority to automted and still have my manual call tasks. If I was to ever be a rep again this is the process i’d follow. This is exactly what I do right now to prospect for Outbound OS & book meetings every week. (Last week this process booked 5 great B2B calls for me) Tech shouldn’t replace you, but it should make your life easier.

Inside of a $10M+ company that generates leads without cold email or ads! ⬇️ We all use the same methods for lead gen: ❌ Cold emails ❌ LinkedIn DMs ❌ Paid ads This $10M+ company did the opposite. They used Handwritten letters + memes + automation + PAS framework. 🔹 Step 1: Build an intent list using lemlist Clay, PhantomBuster and Evaboot (funding, hiring, news). 🔹 Step 2: Send automated handwritten notes (Handwrytten + Audience.co + Make) 🔹 Step 3: Follow up with a meme using Smartlead & second handwritten note (5-7 days later). 🔹 Step 4: Email sequence using PAS framework (Problem → Agitation → Solution). Email 1: Pattern interrupt Email 2: Pain point + meme Email 3: Solution + workflow They have a closing rate of 60% pretty high than average!

The GTM engineering tools I'm using.
Alex Lindahl
GTM Engineer, Clay
This is my LinkedIn signal and automated outreach workflow that's driving newsletters signups behind the scene. I learned this one from Parthi Loganathan , the CEO/Founder of Letterdrop. This is a quick video walkthrough of the Clay table and also These are the steps that are all automated: 1. Monitor keywords on LinkedIn with Letterdrop 2. Trigger sends person’s profile + content into Clay 3. AI analyzes and categorizes the post within Clay 4. Waterfall enrichment kicks off to find that person’s work email 5. Multiple variants of an email are created to match with the categorization 6. Email is sent to Smartlead (built by Vaibhav Namburi) 7. Smartlead automatically sends out the email 8. Prospect opens email and goes to check out newsletter 9. % of those prospects convert to a newsletter subscriber

Ultimate Lead Nurturing Workflow: Automating lead generation is easy. Automating lead nurturing is hard. Or at least, untapped. We've cracked the TOFU formula. But our service is worthless if our clients aren't closing. So that's a key focus for us this year: Pipeline conversion. Steal this epic workflow start driving MOFU.

Cost: $444/mo Turns out, what tool you use has almost nothing to do with it. $444 in tools don’t automagically turn into $1M+ in pipeline. The strategy is EVERYTHING. No reason to let the tech over-complicate things.

Your SEO tech stack may be robbing you blind. Below are 5 tools we're using in 2025 to grow client's revenue. That's it. Not the 50+ tools most "experts" recommend. I've tested dozens of tools. Most aren't worth the time. The best tools are the ones you'll actually use. Not the ones that can sell you on an artificial need.

I use this software for my link building work.
Working for a software company that owns SEO tools obviously has its advantages. I have many tools at my disposal. If you have a limited budget, however, I recommend one at the bottom of the list. As always, great SEO specialists understand their craft and know how to do SEO without the aid of tools. It's only meant to help you work smarter, faster and to get a quick overview of your SEO performance.
