Bill

Co-Founder

We build and scale Outbound Sales systems that include multi-channel prospecting, lead response, and our cutting-edge processes to help you build your business.

This is the exact stack we're relying on to get us to $6M ARR. 
After working with 70+ GTM teams, testing 125+ tools, here is what stayed.

To get from $0 to $3M we ran a much bigger stack.
It worked, but the tools got better and we got smarter about what we actually needed.

So we simplified our stack.

This is what stayed, organized by job to be done:

0. The Engine

→ Clay: data orchestration. Every source plugs in, every workflow runs through it
→ n8n: where our agents live and automations run 
→ Claude: research, intelligence, copy

1. Finding the right accounts 

→ Apollo: targeted lists 
→ LinkedIn Sales Navigator: full stakeholder mapping 
→ Ocean.io: lookalike companies once you've nailed an ICP

2. Capturing buying intent

→ RB2B: identifies warm website visitors
→ Trigify.io: catches LinkedIn engagement signals before your competitors do 
→ Common Room: monitors your CRM accounts and flags when it's time to reach out

3. Getting clean contact data

→ FullEnrich: phone + email waterfall 
→ Prospeo: fills the gaps for specific cases 
→ ZeroBounce: validate before you hit send

4. Personalizing at scale

→ Claygent: account research on autopilot 
→ Twain / Octave: purpose-built copy tools for teams that want alternatives

5. Reaching out
 
→ lemlist: best multichannel 
→ HeyReach.io: LinkedIn DMs at scale, zero bans 
→ Instantly.ai: cold email with warmup + rotation built in 
→ Salesfinity: cold calling that actually books meetings

6. Closing and tracking
 
→ HubSpot: still the best CRM if you use it right 
→ Attio: our recommendation for teams under 50 
→ Qwilr: proposals that move deals forward async 
→ Sybill/ Claap so reps spend time selling, not taking notes

That's 23 tools across 6 layers.

The catch is: you don't need all of them.

We run this many because we work across 70+ clients, different industries, different ICPs, different motions that are built for their specific case.
(What works for a PLG SaaS won't work for an enterprise services firm.)

But the logic behind every tool is the same:
Signal → Enrich → Personalize → Reach out → Close → Learn
Each tool has one main job, each job feeds the next.

What's the one tool you'd never cut? 👀

$45+ Billion in GTM software valuations, from just 9 tools on this map!!
There are 80+ on here!

(And most weren't built in Silicon Valley.)
 
V2 of the 🌍 Global GTM Map is here.

After dropping the first GTM map last week,
the comments became a map of their own.
Founders and GTM operators tagging tools, adding countries, calling out what I missed.

So I updated it.
 
+20 New tools, +3 new countries, same mission:
Showing that GTM is now a global movement.
 
A few things that you can see from the map:

→ There is a concentration of tools in France, UK and Estonia
→ France is leading enrichment
→ Estonia coming strong in email outreach
→ The US still leads on signals and intent
→ The UK is dominating AI video & voice
→ Bulgaria, Canada, and Ireland just joined the map
 
The tools that got the most love in the comments:

🇺🇸 Clay
🇫🇷 FullEnrich 
🇫🇷 lemlist
🇪🇪 Instantly.ai
🇲🇰 HeyReach.io
🇺🇸 RB2B 
🇬🇧 Synthesia
🇬🇧 Attio

What's the best GTM tool from your country that didn't make the map?

Claude Code went from $0 to $2.5B in under a year!
We spent 3 months figuring out how a GTM team should use it. Here's everything we found..
 
LinkedIn is giving you FOMO about Claude Code,
but nobody is explaining how it actually fits into GTM.
 
We built the playbook that answers that.
 
Whether you're an AI expert or this is the first time you hear about Claude,
this resource has everything you need to get started, like:
 
1️⃣ Setup in 10 minutes, no dev background needed
2️⃣ Your first win in 60 minutes, copy paste prompts included
3️⃣ 12 playbooks every GTM team should build first
4️⃣ The full 8-step outbound campaign pipeline
5️⃣ CLAUDE.md templates by GTM motion
6️⃣ 25 workflows by GTM role, SDR, AE, Marketing, RevOps, CS
7️⃣ What NOT to automate, and the readiness checklist
 
Every workflow in it is running in production today.
 
We gave early access to our newsletter subscribers, the response was overwhelming.
Now we're making it public, for free.
 
Comment CLAUDE and I'll send it over.

100+ hours tracking LinkedIn feeds.
These are the 50 GTM voices worth your attention in 2026.
 
These are the people moving the needle in GTM right now.
Sharing frameworks you can steal on a Monday morning.
Building and leading the companies defining how B2B revenue is won in 2026.
 
A few highlights 👇

Kyle Coleman: redefining how AI should actually plug into your sales motion, not just your copy.

Chris Walker: the person who was right about the dark funnel before the rest of the market caught up.

Kyle Poyar: if you touch pricing or PLG, his Growth Unhinged newsletter is the closest thing to a cheat code that exists.

Adam Robinson: bootstrapped RB2B to $7.5M ARR by turning building in public into a real distribution engine.

Andrei Zinkevich and Emilia Korczynska: the most consistently rigorous ABM thinkers posting on LinkedIn.

Plus top voices from Clay, lemlist, Salesforge.ai 🔥and others.
 
I'm on the list too 😎 I share what we're learning at SalesCaptain in real time: the workflows we run, the outbound playbooks that actually convert, what's working in GTM right now and what isn't.
If any of this is useful → hit Follow, I post 4-5 times every week.
 
Full list in the creative,
Everyone else tagged in the comments 👇

Clay hit $100M+ ARR without a traditional sales army.
Because Clay's best customer is Clay.
 
They use their own product to run their entire GTM, and it helped them scale to $100M ARR and a $5B valuation, serving 15,000+ customers including OpenAI, Canva, and Google.
 
This Thursday, at 🇬🇧 Clay Club London, Clay's Co-Founder Varun Anand is breaking down the actual operating model.

You’ll see:
- How Clay uses Clay internally
- How website intent becomes outbound action
- How workflows replace manual prospecting
- What stays human, and what doesn’t
 
Plus:
Yash Tekriwal 🤔 is walking through Clay’s internal education and enablement engine.
lemlist and Dealfront are joining the operator roundtable.

And I’ll be doing a live breakdown of how we build signal-driven GTM systems for clients right now.

Real workflows + open Q&A.

If you're in London, you don't want to miss the insights (and the people) in this room.

"Should I just use Claude Code instead of Clay?"
"What about n8n or Make?" ,"Do I even need Zapier anymore?"

We get these questions every week across 70+ clients. 
The confusion is understandable. 
Here's the answer nobody's giving you.

You don't need all 5 of these tools. 
You need to know what each one does, pick the ones that match your stage, your team, and your budget.

1. Claude Code

✅ Calls any API, writes and runs its own scripts 
✅ Replaces tasks that used to need a developer 
✅ Cheapest of the five ($20/mo base)

❌ Your code and prompts go to Anthropic's servers (data privacy concern) 
❌ No visual interface (non-technical will have a steep learning curve) 
❌ Needs deployment setup to run autonomously 
❌ Cost spikes with heavy API usage

Best for: Scale stage teams ready to automate custom workflows

2. Clay

✅ Best B2B enrichment on the market (waterfall 15+ providers) 
✅ Visual, non-technical friendly
✅ Native AI built in (Claude, GPT, Gemini)

❌ Won't run on its own  
❌ Credits stack up fast at high volume

Best for: Any stage, the GTM tool most teams start with

3. n8n

✅ Runs 24/7 autonomously 
✅ Self-hosted = zero per-op cost
✅ Full logic control, AI agent nodes built in

❌ Steep learning curve 
❌ Every API update = manual fix on your end 
❌ Managing 20+ client instances needs a dedicated person

Best for: Scale stage (only with a dedicated GTM engineer)

4. Make 
✅ Visual drag-and-drop, no code needed 
✅ Affordable entry point ($9/mo) 
✅ Runs 24/7

❌ Hits its ceiling fast on complex logic 
❌ Not built for serious GTM engineering at scale

Best for: Growth stage teams who need automation without hiring a developer

5. Zapier 

✅ Easiest to set up 
✅ 6,000+ integrations 
✅ every team already knows it

❌ Most expensive at scale 
❌ Not built for complex GTM logic (you'll outgrow it fast)

Best for: Early stage, or simple triggers at any stage

The clients who get this right early save 3-6 months of rebuilding. 
The ones who don't always come back saying they wish they'd started smaller.

25 Claude code Workflows for GTM teams

Here's the full ABM stack we're using to hit $6M ARR
200+ ABM campaigns taught us which tools actually matter. 

P.S. The top 1% GTM teams in 2026 are running seven layers, the rest 99% run only three.

1. Intent Signals
Unify
Bombora
Common Room
 
2. LinkedIn Ads & Tracking
ZenABM
Fibbler
LinkedIn Campaign Manager
 
3. Website Visitors
RB2B
Midbound
Warmly,

4. Data Orchestration
Clay
Apollo
Sales Navigator

5. Outreach
Instantly.ai
lemlist
Salesforge.ai 🔥
HeyReach.io
 
6. AI Layer
Claude
Claygent

7. CRM & Ops
HubSpot
n8n
Zapier
 
💡 One tip we learned after 200+ campaigns:
The main reason ABM fails is because you're reaching one person at a company, not the buying committee. 
Fix your contact coverage first.
(Match rates went from 40% to 80%+ for our clients when we did 🔥)
 
What's the one layer missing from your current ABM stack?

We analysed 6,000+ signals across 200+ B2B campaigns.
These 9 generated $2M+ in pipeline.
The rest were just noise.

Last month we ran a webinar with lemlist about signals, 1,200 people showed up.
Most of them had the tools, Clay, RB2B, Bombora... you name it.

They all had signals,
But almost none had a system for what to do with the signals.

They had the tools, not the playbook.
So we wrote it for you.

A comprehensive resource (9 chapters) on:

→How to find the signals UNIQUE to your business (that your competitors don't have)

→ How to prioritize the accounts they surface (the exact scoring matrix) 

→ What to do at every stage: TOFU, MOFU, BOFU 

→ What to say when a signal fires (the AI personalization framework) 

→ 17 signal types + the full GTM tech stack to run it all

Everything we use at SalesCaptain and across 70+ clients
Nothing held back.

Comment SIGNALS and I'll send it over.

We used these 7 signals to generate 20+ meetings/month and $1M+ in pipeline, ONLY from LinkedIn.
Here are the signals, the steps and the tools we used:
 
1. LinkedIn Ad Engagers → They engaged with your ad but never clicked. Capture, enrich, reach out.

2. LinkedIn Harvesting → 3+ engagements from the same person. 
Auto-DM + follow-up email.

3. Event Attendees → New events in your space every Monday. 
Find who's attending first.

4. Keyword Engagers → Someone posts about the exact problem you solve. 
You show up.

5. Followers Outreach → They followed your page. Enrich, classify, personalize, reach out.

6. Competitor Followers → Already in the market. 
The warmest outreach you'll ever run.

7. Decision Maker Connect → Meeting booked → full buying committee found → connected before the call. (This one alone changed how we close deals)
 
Most reps are waiting for prospects to raise their hand.
These workflows find them the moment they show intent, before they even know they need you.
 
Tools used across all 7:

LinkedIn
Clay
HeyReach.io
lemlist
Trigify.io
Common Room
PhantomBuster
HubSpot
ZenABM
Instantly.ai
Calendly
 
Workflow 06 is the one most people skip because it feels too aggressive. It's also the one I'd start with.

Which one are you running? 👀

7 LinkedIn workflows that generated $1M in pipeline

HeyReach just got banned by LinkedIn ❌ 
We've run 200+ campaigns with them. Here's my opinion 👇

Of all the LinkedIn tools out there, HeyReach was one of the most careful.

They respected rate limits.
They built for safety.
They did everything right
... and they still got banned.

Which means no one is safe.
Because this isn't about compliance.
 
LinkedIn is playing a different game entirely.
Every tool that monetizes their data better than they do is a target.

Automation tools first.
Then enrichment.
Then analytics.
 
LinkedIn is closing the loop, slowly, then all at once.
Worth noting, existing campaigns are still running, users are not affected.
 
The right question to ask isn't "which tool do I switch to?"
It's: 
"How much of my GTM is built on a platform that can pull the plug overnight?"
 
Curious what others are thinking here.

Clay just dropped a major pricing update (March 2026)🆘
Here's who benefits, who should pay attention, and what most people missed.
 
🟢 BIG WINNERS

→ Teams doing heavy enrichment with Clay's marketplace 
Data costs just dropped 50–90%.
Your budget goes a lot further from day one.
 
→ Teams that wanted CRM + Web Intent but couldn't justify $800/mo
Those features now unlock at $495/mo on the Growth plan.
That's the biggest access shift in this update.
 
→ Heavy Claygent users Clay says 85% of AI users will pay less.
Frontier models now pass through at cost, zero markup.
 
🟡 WATCH OUT

→ Pro plan users running workflows on your own API keys 
Three things to know:
 
1️⃣ You may see a price increase, Clay admitted the old Pro plan was mispriced

2️⃣ Using your own API keys DOES consume Actions, this is the detail most posts are missing.

3️⃣ Even a single HTTP API call to your own database now requires the $495 Growth plan

→ Heavy credit users (70K–100K credits/month)

One user publicly shared their math:
Currently paying ~$1,500/mo.
To maintain the same volume on new plans → $3,500–5,000.
If you're in that range, model this out before you switch.
 
→ Solo GTM engineers and individuals

Clay essentially coined the GTM Engineer role.
But higher fixed costs raise the barrier for people just getting started.
Worth flagging honestly.
 
→ Anyone assuming Actions = Credits
They're not.
Actions measure platform work, 1 action per task, regardless of data spend.

The good news: 90% of customers will never hit their limit.
 
What does NOT consume Actions: Lookups, CRM imports, webhook imports, CSV exports.
 
🔵 THE BIGGER PICTURE
 
Clay is separating what the platform does from what the data costs.

For GTM teams, that clarity matters, and it sets them up to charge properly for the orchestration features coming next.
 
Across the 70+ clients we run GTM for, 
the teams that will feel this most are the ones doing serious enrichment work inside Clay, and for them, this is a genuine win 🏆 
 
Clay also publicly said this will cost them 10% in revenue short term.
That's not a company optimizing for quarterly numbers, that's a bet on the right model winning.
 
If you've been sitting on the fence because the credit model felt unclear, this changes that.
 
On a legacy plan?
You have until April 10 to decide.
You can stay exactly where you are. No forced migration.
 
Where are you right now with Clay? 👀

- Heavy user evaluating the change
- Considering Clay for the first time
- Confused about Actions specifically

Drop it in the comments, happy to help if I can.

The tools that got us there? Half of them don't exist in our stack anymore.

It's not because they're bad tools, but because the market moved.

Cold email infra by budget 2026

The worst thing that can happen to your business : being INVISIBLE to your best buyers.
 
They're ready to buy,
You have no clue!
Because you don't know it's the right moment to reach out.

That's what signals fix.
 
Signals tell you who is in buying mode, right now.

Most teams use 1 or 2.
The best teams stack signals from all 3 layers simultaneously
and that's what separates 1% reply rates from 5%+.
 
Here's every signal type worth tracking in 2026 👇

Jeff Gapinski

Since when did clean formatting = AI?
Em dashes and bullet points aren’t crimes

Lately, there’s this weird pressure to strip out em dashes, add in spelling mistakes, or avoid clean formatting just to prove a human wrote it.

That’s a problem.

Writers shouldn’t have to unlearn clarity, remove helpful structure, or rethink their voice just to avoid the “sounds like AI” label.

Em dashes aren’t the enemy. Neither are H2s, bulleted lists, or smart, scannable sentences.

They’re tools. And they’ve been part of good writing long before the internet decided to play detective.

If your writing is clear, well-paced, and useful, then it’s doing its job. Whether or not someone assumes it came from a human, a machine, or a little of both.

– HITT Construction
 
Today, I'm breaking down this exact strategy so you can use it for yourself or your clients.
 
Let's get into it 👇
 
𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁
 
Make it clear what you do, who you serve, and how you make lives better. Have a visual that continues the message and brings in attention.
 
𝘏𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘍𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘶𝘭𝘢:
[What You Do] + [Outcome]
 
𝘏𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦:
Unlimited Copywriting That Converts
 
𝘚𝘶𝘣𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘍𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘶𝘭𝘢:
We help [Audience] + [Value Prop 1], [Value Prop 2], [Value Prop 3], with [What You Do]
 
𝘚𝘶𝘣𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦:
We helped B2B SaaS companies lower staff costs, go to market faster, and convert more demos with unlimited copywriting.
 
𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁
 
Customers need to feel comfortable working with you. You need proof.
 
Your home page should include:
 
→ Testimonials
→ Case Studies
→ Client Logos
→ Press Logos
→ Data
 
Use these to your advantage to back up claims.
 
Don't leave them isolated to a single section.
 
𝗘𝗺𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗵𝘆
 
Customers want to feel seen. Make it clear you understand where they are and what they deserve.
 
𝘌𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘺 𝘏𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘍𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘶𝘭𝘢:
[Question] + [Deep Rooted Concern]
 
𝘌𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘺 𝘏𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦:
Do you have an amazing product but struggle to communicate it's true value?
 
𝘌𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘩y 𝘚𝘶𝘣𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦:
Every word on your website is an opportunity to connect with your ideal customer.
 
Finding the right combination of trust, education, and pulsation with your copy is no easy task.
 
You need the right partner to help guide you to a copy strategy that will resonate with your ideal customer.
 
𝗣𝗮𝗶𝗻
 
Focus on what frustrates your customers. Reiterate what keeps them up at night and how you can solve that for them.
 
Common things to focus on:
→ Lost money
→ Lost time
→ Lost opportunity
→ Inability to achieve goals
 
𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆
 
Make it obvious why you're the right choice.
 
Clearly communicate how you've solved these problems for people just like them.
 
𝘈𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘍𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘶𝘭𝘢:
We Help [Customer Industry] +
[Path Forward]
 
𝘈𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦:
We help B2B SaaS companies write copy that clearly communicates their value and prompts action.
 
We helped [Client Name] lift their demo requests by [Specific Value] just by re-writing their home page.
 
𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻
 
Not only should you make it crystal clear what the next step is, make it known what the cost of inaction is.
 
𝘈𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘏𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘍𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘶𝘭𝘢:
[Value] + Starts Now
 
𝘈𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘏𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦:
Your path to better copy starts now
 
𝘐𝘯𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘴:
You lose opportunities every time a customer fails to resonate with your copy.
 
Stop wasting time and ad budget on bad copy.
