Cold Email & AI Automation | Clay | Apollo | Smartlead | GHL | Klaviyo

I solve the three biggest problems: Broken Automations, Low Reply rate, & High Bounce rate. 4+ Years of helping startups, SaaS companies, agencies, & local businesses build scalable, automated cold email infrastructures, which require minimal human interaction. So you can focus on closing the deals. Core Architecture & Solutions: Deliverability & Infrastructure: End-to-end domain and inbox setup across Google Workspace and Outlook. I handle advanced SPF, DKIM, and DMARC DNS configuration, email warm-up, and continuous inbox placement testing to completely eliminate spam and deliverability issues. Campaign & Inbox Rotation: Technical setup and scaling on Instantly and Smartlead. I build multi-step sequences, manage strict daily send controls, and deploy high-volume inbox rotation to safely scale outreach without burning domains. Automation & AI Workflows: Building automated data pipelines and AI-first outreach using Claude, Clay, and CoWork. I integrate behavioral sequence triggers and automated lead tagging directly with CRMs like HubSpot and GoHighLevel via Zapier, Make, or webhooks. Lead Sourcing & Data Cleaning: Targeted list building and scraping via Apollo and LinkedIn Sales Navigator. Every list undergoes rigorous lead cleaning, research, and verification through NeverBounce or MillionVerifier before upload. Track Record & Tech Stack: I track campaign performance using custom KPI dashboards built with Looker, Lovable, and Claude Code to continuously monitor open rates, reply rates, and inbox placement. Previous campaign infrastructures managing 15k+ mailboxes consistently deliver 60–75% open rates, 8–10% reply rates, and 20–30 qualified meetings per month.
