cold outreach work

Enthusiast of hyper-learning

I do LinkedIn cold outreach.

Is your LinkedIn cold outreach stuck? Let's fix it together.

Available for startup investor outreach, fund manager LP outreach, B2B SaaS sales outreach, B2B service outreach. Open to other creative outreach you might suggest.

This is what you and I will do.

1. You and I will have an interview. I will ask questions over the call. You will answer them immediately over the same call. I will listen quietly and take notes.
2. We pre-select and approve an initial list to reach out to.
3. We pre-approve a message for sending.
4. You share the login details of your LinkedIn profile with me after turning off 2-factor authentication.
5. Once agreed on the message and the targeting strategy, I manually start hitting targets with that message with your LinkedIn profile, reaching out to them as you.
6. We talk every week to see what is working and change what is not working.
7. We iterate consistently until we have a 10%+ meeting rate on messages sent and are always having quality meetings likely to turn into revenue or funding.
8. Speed of iteration is key for both of us to succeed

The price for this is €2,000 (euros) a month. Paid at the start of the month before work starts.

To work with me:

1. Send me a DM.
2. Let me know your time zone, your email address, and three suggested time slots.
3. Alternatively, I can happily give you three suggested time slots.
4. We can have a Meets or Zoom call and see if it is a fit for you.
5. If it is, we run the 8 steps mentioned before.

All outreach tracking is done on Google Sheets. Zero use of automation.

Prime TASS

News coverage of energy, utilities and other industrials in St. Petersburg and North-West of Russia

News Reporter (Industry, Energy, Utilities)

In addition to my recent experience in venture capital and private equity, my 15-year career has focussed on equity capital markets, investor relations, and strategic communications. I have worked in publicly-traded electric utility companies during a transformative period of sector unbundling and electricity market reform when global investor interest in the national energy sector was at its peak. In my role, I was instrumental in bringing about a large hybrid financing deal ($1bn), numerous bond placements, and several M&A transactions. I then transitioned to the retail and e-commerce space, where I played a key role in facilitating the $250m secondary public offering (SPO) of a major national consumer electronics retailer. In my most recent VC/PE role, I advised a large family office on private market transactions, including building a small VC portfolio (FinTech, PropTech, MedTech).
As a team leader, I prioritize soft skills / EQ development and diversity. I thrive in both independent and collaborative environments.
