I'm actively building the most efficient system to go from product market fit to message market fit using outbound and inbound led outbound and I'm having a blast doing it. Basically my team will find the people you want to contact no matter how hard they are to find, and ideally ones that have a clear publicly available issue to pray o- i mean help them with. hahaha. 

It's simple, empower sales teams with top of funnel that drives revenue, acquisition value and fatter fundraising rounds. 

Here's some case studies: From Rought US market entry to 2m in popeline in 40 days:https://gamma.app/docs/From-Market-Entry-to-2M-Pipeline-How-LeadGrowai-Transformed-a-Top-gp4lui8pe6n30v4?mode=doc

If you believe your sales team should spend more time crushing and less time data crunching then send me a message. 

P.S. We tend to work with extremely high ticket companies, companies with tiny hard to find markets and seed to series A funded looking to take their product market fit and find an assymetry that scales it to the moon.

Top to bottom, nuts to bolts.

They're ALL "bet on you" offers.

Here's what I mean:

Most offers make prospects bet on YOU.
"Trust us. We're good. Here's our case studies."

The best offers make prospects bet on THEMSELVES as well.

The difference is subtle but massive.

Here's an example:

Generic: "We'll help you implement AI agents"

Bet on you: "You already hired a head of AI strategy. He probably has coherent thoughts on how your business should implement AI. We're just the way to get from idea to production."

See the shift?

The second version:
- References an investment THEY already made
- Validates a decision THEY already committed to
- Makes success feel like a natural extension of their judgment

The prospect thinks: "Yeah, I DID hire that person. They DO have ideas. This makes sense."

Belief goes up cause they're not betting on a stranger.
They're betting on a decision they already believe in.

How to find your "bet on you" angle:

1. What has this prospect already invested in? (Hiring, tech, strategy)
2. What do they already believe? (Their thesis, their approach)
3. How does your offer validate and extend that belief?

When you nail this, one-call closes become normal.

Cause you're not selling anymore.

You're just validating what they already want to believe.

Video breaking down Alex's bet on your offers coming soon.

3 claude code GTM use cases you can stand up in an hour that will make you superhuman.

1. Remove garbage and dead companies from CSV.

- Get polars python library installed 

Prompt: Claude sir plan out a locally run CSV processor. 

If you get a contact list or set of them, merge them first then deduplicate based on personal linkedin or email only and then spawn a second list off of it that you dedupe at the company level using:
--> company linkedin
--> website
--> google place ID
--> Company name + full address

In that order. 

Once this is complete process the company data to capture the following: 

- Is the website still alive and functioning
- Find their MX provider and flag domains with security gateways that kill cold emails. 

Append the data to the contact list as well. 


Optional add ons: Home page scrape with spider + processing. 


2. Outbound Analytics

- Setup claude to ingest bulk analytics from your sequencer of choice - start with an MCP to get the workflow dialed and then transition to scripts and turn it into a command. 
- Add 2 skills on top: 
-->flag winners and create split tests against them 
-->Create new patterns to avoid long term fingerprinting and protect 

The next one can be added to this to make it even better.

3. Transcript and call processor. Use a dialer that records conversations and push your meeting transcripts into claude - standup a simple command to grab these. 

Make sure claude creates a cache of painpoints, objections, competitors, known technologies. 

Congrats you have handy dandy ICP alpha to apply to your next lists. 

Take the most potent of issues and plug them into your analytics engine to flag split test opportunities or language changes that put the problems into your prospects own words. 


Congrats now go FSU.

You launched an AI SDR. One-of-one campaign. Booking a few meetings.

Crushing it. Happy.

But you have no idea why it works.

You let AI take over from day one. Outsourced your figure-it-out phase to a black box.

Campaign performs? Great. Now scale it.

You can't. Because you don't actually know what's working. Was it the targeting? The angle? The timing? The AI won't tell you.

The founders who win learn the game first. Then automate.

We start every client on cold email.

Not LinkedIn DMs.
Not cold calls.
Not ads.

Cold email first. Always.

Here's why.

The problem:

LinkedIn has reputation risk. If you test bad messaging on LinkedIn, your personal brand takes the hit. Your connections see it. Your prospects remember it. There's no reset button.

Cold email is anonymous. You can test 10 different positioning angles in a week. The ones that fail disappear. The ones that work become your foundation.

What makes it worse:

Most teams test messaging on the channel that matters most. They run experiments on LinkedIn—where their CEO's face is attached to every message.

Then they wonder why sales feels risky.

The fix:

Use cold email as your messaging lab.

People are painfully honest in email replies. They'll tell you to F off if they don't like your angle. That honesty is data. It tells you exactly what your market thinks.

Once you find what works—the situations that resonate, the language that lands—you graduate to LinkedIn with confidence.

But here's the thing: LinkedIn is a complement, not a replacement.

More people have email addresses than LinkedIn profiles. You can reach your entire market faster through email. And you're not outsourcing your thinking to a black box like ads—you know exactly who replied and what they said.

Plus, LinkedIn has friction email doesn't.

On average, only 40% of people accept connection requests. That means 60% of your outreach never even lands. And without content backing up your profile, LinkedIn doesn't convert as well anyway.

The sequence that works:

1. Test messaging on cold email (low risk, precise targeting, fast learning)
2. Find the positioning that resonates
3. Scale through LinkedIn with proven language + content

Stop testing on channels where failure has consequences.

Start where failure is free.

Well this is giving me the warm fuzzies

Got a DM from someone saying they've been enjoying my content. 

Really reassuring cause it's easy to think what you know is too simple to share. You prob have way more value to give than you think.

No alternative text description for this image

Employee count is lazy targeting.

Here's a better signal:

maturity.

We were figuring out how to segment a market of PE firms recently.

The obvious move: big firms vs small firms.

The better move: look at the makeup of their team.

Do they have someone with "AI" or "automation" in their title?
Have they hired for technical roles recently?
Is there evidence of data infrastructure investment?

Why this matters:

A 200-person company with zero technical talent is harder to sell AI to than a 20-person firm with a head of AI strategy.

Size tells you scale.
Maturity tells you readiness.

When you segment by maturity:
- You can make technical arguments to technical buyers
- You skip the education phase
- Close rates go up cause they already believe AI works

When you segment by size alone:
- You waste time explaining basics
- You get stuck in "we're not ready" objections
- Pipeline feels full but nothing closes

The signal hierarchy:

1. Do they have technical leadership? (AI lead, automation role, data team)
2. Have they made related investments? (AI tools in their stack, recent tech hires)
3. What's their public stance on AI? (Content, job postings, press)

Size is the last filter. Not the first.

This is how you stop getting stuck in education-mode sales calls.

Target readiness. Not revenue.

Intent signals are useful.

Pricing page visits. G2 reviews. Job postings.

But they're not how you test your offer.

Here's the problem most people miss:

The math:

- 3% of your market is actively looking (signals)
- what about the rest?
If you're testing your offer based on signals only, you're testing it on 3% of the market.

That's too slow.

Here's what happens:

You send 1,000 emails to signal-triggered leads.
You get 50 replies.
You book 10 calls.
3 close.

What now?

Now you think you know if your offer works and you're out of leads. 

But it doesn't.

You know if your offer works on the 3% who were already looking.

That's not the same thing.

Here's the thing:

Signals don't test the meat and bones of your offer.

They test your ability to catch people at the right moment.

That's valuable. But it's not product-market fit.

The real test is the people that would buy but don't know it yet. 

People who are in a situation to buy but haven't announced it to the world -> the situations beyond the signals.

- Series A -> no CMO (could extend runway by months with the right hire)
- Ripping ads but no newsletter + fat sales team (leaving hella food on the table)
- Team growing fast (process breaking, need help)

These people will tell you if your offer actually resonates.

Cause they're not already shopping.

They're being interrupted. Shown a new way. 

If you can make them stop and pay attention, your offer is real.

Signals are complementary.

Run them for quick wins and pipeline padding.

But don't confuse high conversion on signal campaigns with a validated offer.

That's just good timing.

Strategically test outside of signals. 

That's where you learn your winning offer the one that unlocks the rest of your gtm strategy.

Best performing campaign we're running right now:

40% positive reply rate.

The source: SAM(.)gov (government contract awards).

Here's the play:

When a company wins a government contract, they get paid... eventually.
Government payment terms are notoriously slow.
30, 60, 90 days.

Meanwhile, they need capital to deliver on the work.

The signal: Contract won.
The situation: Cash flow gap.
The offer: Capital against the invoice.

Why this works so well:

1. **Timing is perfect**

They just won. They're excited.
But reality is about to hit: they need to fund the work before they get paid.

2. **Relevance is obvious**

"Congrats on the $X contract. Need capital to bridge the gap?"

That's not a pitch. That's a genuine question.

3. **Qualification is built-in**

Government contracts are vetted.
These are real businesses with real revenue.
No tire-kickers.

The tradeoff:

Volume is limited.
Only so many contracts get awarded weekly.

That's why signals aren't always the best strategy.
They're high-converting but volume-constrained.

The lesson:

Find your SAM(.)gov equivalent.

What public event signals genuine, immediate need?
That's your 40% reply rate campaign waiting to be built.

Low volume. High conversion.
That's the signal play.

But keep in mind this is just a drop in the bucket. it's got the best stats but not the best outcome. 

10x volume at a 12% PR is still the biggest winner.

Once you have an offer that's working what's next? 

How do you make it transcendent. How do you make it so lethal it turns strangers into customers on autopilot. 

Here's a breakdown on what I call building worldview alignment into offers until they become that holy grail Stealth Offer. 

An offer so good that it must be uncovered not created. Mined out of the very market itself.

Lending is a 'crowded market.'

Everyone offers rates. Terms. Speed.

When there's a crowd it's your positioning that matters most. You don't wanna be Waldo you wanna be the blacksheep in an ocean of white. 

Here's a positioning angle most miss:

Rescue.

We were working on positioning for a revenue-based financing company's repackaging service.

The obvious frame: "We offer better rates than your current loan."

The better frame: "Loan rescue."

"This guy was drowning. We came in with a capital rescue. Repackaged his debt. Now he can breathe."

Same service. Completely different story.

Why "rescue" works:

1. It implies urgency without creating it
2. It positions you as the hero, not just another option
3. It speaks to emotional state, not just financial state

Most people with bad loans don't think "I need better rates."
They think "I'm stuck."

"Rescue" meets them where they actually are.

How to find your rescue angle:

Look at repackaging case studies.

Not the numbers. The narrative.

- What was the emotional state before?
- What changed after?
- What would have happened without intervention?

The story writes itself.

"She took an MCA that felt manageable. 6 months later, she couldn't make payroll. We restructured. She made payroll. Now she's expanding."

That's not "better rates."
That's rescue.

Position the transformation, not the transaction.

Most lenders sound the same cause they sell the same.

Rescue positioning makes you the only option that feels like relief.

100% 1-1 AI emails are a fools errand for any company that is pre offer-market fit.

you're outsourcing your distribution to a black box and making it 20x more difficult to discern what's working and what isn't.

you'll be lucky to stumble on a true outlier doing this.

this is for after you find your offer.

🚨tHiS uLtiMaTe GeMiNi 3.o MeThOd BrInGs RaInWaTeR tO tHe SaHaRa

this system unlocks 300,000 square km of viable land mass that everyone else has overlooked but after 36 hours of studying the back of my hand im giving it away.

this system will:

- extract unblooded diamonds 
- automatically send a dollar a day to that local infomercial village
- solve how tf they got the 400 ton stone up the Nile and in the kings chamber
- and even stand up hyper cooled Giga data centers so you can make millions serving up sweet sweet inference.

like and comment 'wow this is gonna be a life changing lead magnet'

and I'll send it over. must be connected like this system makes me feel connected to humanities potential birthplace.

If your offer feels flat, do this:

Look at what every other player in your market does. Find the thing customers hate about it.

Position against that.

Same offer. Different angle.

Example: "Growth partner" vs "growth agency."

Same service. But "partner" positions against the extraction feeling people got from agencies for years. Skin in the game instead of invoice-and-disappear.

That one word change shifts the whole frame.

You might have a similar retainer but you make it FEEL like you're aligning with their upside. 

The market cycles though. What worked five years ago might be stale today. What was stale might be fresh again.

Your job isn't to invent a new offer. It's to find the thing your market is tired of and position as the opposite.

All you need to do is make an offer WORTH testing that's it. 

Don't over complicate shit. 

It's offer then offer framing.

"but what about targeting" 

A good offer has the targeting baked in my friend. 

"WTF is framing?" 

frame is how will you can frame the offer around their current day to day situation AKA their worldview. 

if you can do that you are so unreasonably trust worthy that they ACTUALLY BELIEVE YOUR DREAM OUTCOME.

We built a GTM knowledge base for a K-12 EdTech client.

Now claude code is one-shotting newsletter sequences.

Single prompt. Crisp copy. Ready to send.

But what matters is where the knowledge came from: 
1. all of our successful outbound GTM campaigns and the research that fueled them 
2. Sales call transcripts 
3. Direct conversations with the founder to bridge the gap between what is said and what is understood. 

So here's what changed:

Before the knowledge base:
- 3-4 prompt iterations to get usable copy
- Constant corrections on tone and positioning
- Output felt generic, needed heavy editing
- Constant copy and pasting of context + searching notion.

After the knowledge base:
- Single prompt produces ready-to-use sequences via SKILLS
- Tone is dialed in automatically
- References the right proof points without being told
- Now they can instantly turn good newsletters into segmented ones by geography and titles. 
 
The difference isn't the AI.

It's the context.

Here's what we structured:

1. **Voice and tone rules** - How they sound, what words they use, what they avoid
2. **ICP pain points** - Specific problems their buyers have, in their language
3. **Proof points** - Case studies, metrics, testimonials organized by use case
4. **Positioning angles** - What makes them different, framed for different segments

When the AI has this context loaded, it doesn't guess.

It executes.

The pattern:

Most people treat AI like a magic box.
"Write me a newsletter sequence."

Then they're surprised when the output is generic.

The AI isn't the bottleneck.

Your knowledge organization is.

When you invest in structuring your GTM knowledge:
- AI becomes a force multiplier
- Junior team members produce senior-level work
- Output is consistent across channels

The K-12 client went from "AI is inconsistent" to "AI is our fastest copywriter."

Same AI. Better context.

Talked to a founder building AI for private equity recently.

He said something that stuck:

"Every company claims they're AI for private markets. There's so much noise. The question is what engenders trust."

He's right.

In saturated markets, the dream outcome isn't what closes deals.

Believability is.

Here's the thing most people miss:

You don't build trust by CLAIMING results.
You build trust by demonstrating that you understand their world better than they expected.

The way you bridge the gap between "sounds nice" and "I believe you" is how you frame and position the offer.

Some tactics that work:
- Reference investments they've already made ("You hired a head of AI strategy... he probably has coherent thoughts on implementation...")
- Make them feel like they're betting on THEMSELVES, not just you
- Surface problems they didn't know they had

When someone reads your message and thinks "this person gets my situation"... trust is already half-built.

That's why diagnosis beats personalization every time.

The goal isn't to sound different.
It's to prove you see what others miss.

What's the hardest market you've had to build trust in?

Your AI agents suck cause you're evaluating them wrong. 
(and Claygents too)

With normal AI, you course-correct outputs. Didn't like the email? Tweak the prompt, run it again, check what came out.

Agents are different. They have tools. They take actions. And you need to watch where they go.

With agents, you course-correct process. Not the final result - the steps being taken. What tool calls is it making? Where is it navigating? Is it heading the right direction before it gets there?

Stop treating agents like a black box you prompt into. Start stepping through the actions yourself.
