Apollo Shut Down the Apify Scraper, here’s the Fix

Apify’s “Apollo Scraper” actor is officially dead, which broke half the lead gen workflows out there.

So I rebuilt mine with a new Apify actor.

Here’s how it works now:

Manually scrape leads via Apollo by job title and location (your niche).
Upload the Apollo CSV to Google Sheets.
The flow scrapes LinkedIn + web search via Perplexity to enrich each lead with real-time company info and context.
Custom messaging generated via OpenAI.
Leads + messaging uploaded to Instantly.

Result: I now get fully personalized messages directly inside Instantly, 100 % automated.

If you want to rebuild it or plug it into your own offer, happy to share the setup.
