GTM Engineer & BDR | Cold Email Automation (Clay, Apollo, Instantly)
I help B2B companies replace manual prospecting with a revenue system that finds, enriches, and converts leads on autopilot, so your pipeline grows without you (or your sales team) chasing cold contacts all day. Most outbound fails for one of three reasons: bad data, generic messaging, or no system to run it consistently. I fix all three by building GTM infrastructure around Clay, Apollo, and Instantly, wired into your CRM (GoHighLevel) and paired with Meta Ads for full-funnel demand generation. WHAT I DELIVER: - GTM systems built in Clay, lead enrichment, scoring, and routing so every contact you reach is verified, relevant, and ready to convert - Cold email infrastructure in Instantly, domain warm-up, deliverability management, and sequences that consistently land in the primary inbox - Apollo prospecting & sequencing, ICP-based list building, filtering, and multi-step outbound campaigns - BDR/SDR-style outbound execution, prospecting, qualifying, and booking meetings, not just "sending emails" - GoHighLevel (GHL) automation pipelines, follow-up sequences, and CRM workflows so no lead falls through the cracks - Meta Ads campaigns, paid demand capture layered on top of outbound to fill the pipeline from both directions HOW I WORK: 1. Audit: I review your current data, ICP, and outreach (or build from zero) 2. Build: Clay + Apollo + Instantly wired together, GHL/CRM connected 3. Launch: deliverability-safe warm-up, then live sending 4. Optimize: weekly reporting on opens, replies, and booked meetings I'm not a "tool operator"; I think like a BDR who happens to be able to build the machine that makes the BDR unnecessary. If you need a repeatable, scalable outbound engine (not a one-off email blast), let's talk.
