Nick A.
B2B Lead Gen & Process Automation Engineer
Hi, I'm Nick! I've generated over $520,000 in revenue for small and medium-sized businesses in 2026 and run cold email campaigns with over 7.5% reply rates (industry average is ~3%). I'm also a software engineer who's built workflow automation software supporting a $40M U.S. Navy contract and automated cybersecurity compliance work for a 120+ employee defense contractor. Here's where I can help: • Cold email setup and deliverability: outreach domains, mailboxes, SPF/DKIM/DMARC checks, warmup configuration, sending limits, and troubleshooting delivery problems. • Cold email strategy and consulting: defining your target audience, developing offers, reviewing existing campaigns, and identifying what to change. • B2B lead generation: LinkedIn Sales Navigator research, email enrichment and verification, list cleaning, and segmentation. • Copy and campaign management: email sequences, researched personalization, Instantly setup, and ongoing testing of offers and messaging. My software engineering background lets me build the systems behind your outreach, too. I've developed AI-assisted personalization workflows that use prospect and company research to write relevant opening lines. I also connect tools and automate repetitive work using, Claude, Python, and APIs/MCPs. I'm available for broader workflow automation and custom software projects as well, including CRM integrations, document processing, and internal business tools. Send me a message with what you sell, who you're trying to reach, and what you need help with. We'll work through the scope, timeline, and next steps.
