Hey guys! I think this might be of some value, I'll let you know the results!
I've really been focusing on building out my leadflow lately. I’ve set up a system that scrapes Apollo for high-quality leads — I’m currently getting around 600 valid emails out of every 1,000 prospects. From there, I enrich each lead with profile data from socials and other sources. Then comes the fun part: using Make.com to auto-generate custom icebreakers for each lead. These aren’t generic openers — they’re deeply personalised based on the enriched data using ChatGPT. Once that’s done, everything flows into Instantly, where I run cold email campaigns firing out 400–650 emails a day, each one tailored, not spammy. Now doing some quick math: 500 emails/day at a 1.5% booking rate = 7–8 calls per day, 225/ calls a month. Lets give a 10% close rate on that with 500$ average deal value = 11,000$ with the cost of the system being under 1,000$. And the whole thing’s automated. I am thinking of some other ways I can smoothen this out with the calendar booking automations etc.... Really keen to hear other peoples ideas. Super excited to see where I can optimise and take this to the next level.If anyone else is building something similar, please let me know, I would love to speak to you and learn!
