I closed $7,500 in 3 hours for a client using Apollo's AI
No Ads, Content, Influencers or complex workflows
Drop 'AI' Below and I'll share the swipe files

With Apollo's AI, we were able to find people LOOKING FOR US.

That's right, they were online, looking for my clients services. 

The AI infiltrates their cookies, Meta Data and Searches. 

Then, it builds a profile to show us specifically who's looking for our services.

Imagine this: 

→'Prospect X' is looking for a LinkedIn Ghost-Writer.
→They've been searching LinkedIn, Favikon, Google etc.. 
→Over the past 24 hours, they've conducted several searches. 
→You swoop in, let them know you're aware they're hunting for you. 
→You hop on a call, pitch your services + then you close the deal... BOOM!

Let me break it down further: 

→You go to Apollo
→Add your filters and preferences
→Look for companies that are searching for Recruiters
→You see 200 companies looking RIGHT NOW... for a recruiter
→You swoop in and let them know you're aware they're hunting for you. 
→And the best thing is, you can automate the ENTIRE outreach process...!

If you don't get how important this is, then don't worry, you don't need it. 

If you get how important this is, and you want to do it, I got you!

Drop 'AI' below and I'll send you a walkthrough guide on how to set this up today

Then, when you've closed your first deal tomorrow, come back and drop me a testimonial... lol

I FREAKING LOVE APOLLO + AI 🤯

Scaling $5M+ ARR Businesses through AI & GTM Systems | Founder + CEO - ZDTS

I closed $7,500 in 3 hours for a client using Apollo's AI

Wow, I think I might delete all of my AI subscriptions.
This morning I used 6 AI models, on one platform. 
Drop 'AI' + I'll send you my walkthrough. 

Most people are still juggling: 

→ChatGPT
→Llama
→Claude
→Gemini
→Perplexity
→Midjourney

And many other AI Models. 

→Six Tabs
→Six Logins
→Six Payment Plans

Activepieces combines everything into one platform. 

→You choose the provider
→You choose the Model
→You write the prompt
→You run the workflow

→No Setup
→No API Keys
→No Subscriptions
→No technical friction

I generated text, images, videos and extracted structured data from docs.
↳All inside one single automation platform. 

This is the first time I've seen a tool remove every barrier to actually using AI at scale. 

If you want the exact workflow I use + full setup guides + free access 

Comment 'AI' Below. I'll send it right over. 

Stop wasting money, work smart.

They said no company would ever do this.
↳But Activepieces just made automation history
 →Unlimited executions, Unlimited users. Free forever.

No Trials. No Credit Cards. No Limits

Every team on earth can now build, launch, and scale automations & AI Agents. 

At zero cost. 

For years, the automation industry has paywalled progress. 

You could experiment → but never deploy
You could prototype → but never scale 

Every ‘idea’ hit a pricing wall.

As OpenAI proved with ChatGPT, the fastest way to drive mass adoption is to open the floodgates for free. 

Activepieces just did the same for automation. 

It removed every self-serve paywall so any team could build real AI-driven workflows today. 

Here is what is now free for everyone: 

→ 10 Active Flows
↳ Build real automations and AI agents, not ‘toy demos’ 

→ Unlimited runs and executions 
↳ Test, deploy, and optimize without usage caps

→ Unlimited users
↳ Bring your entire Team, from engineering to marketing

→ Unlimited Tables
↳ Store and manage workflow data without limits

→ Unlimited Agent steps
↳ Create intelligent automations that can perceive, Think & Act

→ 1 Project with 200 AI Credits
↳ Validate real ROI before procurement even starts

And that's just the tip of the iceberg, Activepieces are disrupting an industry. 

Their competitors will for sure hate them for this. 

But their users = Love, Loyalty & Trust. 

This is not a free trial. 

It’s a deliberate product strategy that removes friction so organizations can adopt faster. 

When teams can build freely → They move faster 
When they move faster → they prove value 
When value is proven → scale happens naturally 

That’s the entire point. 

Activepieces is giving every team the freedom to automate without budget approvals or blocks 

→ Access without friction: No credit card or paywalls
→ Serious scope: Unlimited runs, Users + building blocks 
→ Enterprise runway: Clear path to governance, security, and scale

For most enterprise teams, innovations die because of 'waiting'. 
↳ Weeks of approvals, procurement, etc.. 

Then, finally, a 'pilot' that runs out of budget before proving value. 

I think that this new model breaks that cycle. 

Now, engineering, marketing, and operations teams can build real AI agents in minutes, validate ROI in days, and walk into the next planning meeting with proof instead of promises. 

This is what 'open access' means in practice. 

Because AI automation should not be something you ask permission to explore. 
↳ It should be something your team can start today. 

If you and your team want to give it a try, comment 'ACTIVE' below and you'll get:  

1. Instant access 
2. 100+ Workflow Templates
3. Step-by-step user manuals 

I built these for my clients, but happy to share with you, too! 

Spin up your first Agent today. It's FREE → Forever.

What took 6 employees last year…
↳ Now takes 1 AI system running 24/7
→ Comment “FLOW” to get my full workflow

No layoffs. No drama.
Just automation, optimization, and acceleration.

Before Apollo, every client project felt like a marathon:
→ Writing outreach scripts
→ Building lead lists
→ Handling follow-ups
→ Drafting proposals
→ Writing content
→ Tracking CRM data manually

It worked.
But it was slow, expensive, and inconsistent.

Then I discovered the power of Apollo + AI.

Now:
→ My outreach runs 24/7
→ Messages are personalized
→ Meetings get booked on autopilot

All powered by this Apollo Stack:

→ People + Company Search
→ AI Research + AI Assistant
→ Automatic Sequencing
→ Buying Intent + Intent Scoring
→ Automated Workflows
→ Slack for notifications
→ Integrated with 58 other tools

Everything’s built with zero code.
And it’s scalable across multiple clients.

What used to take a team now takes one person with a system.

So I documented it.

My full B2B acquisition workflow is now a repeatable engine built entirely with Apollo AI.

The results:
→ 30+ qualified meetings per month
→ $80K+ in cold outreach revenue
→ $0 spent on ads
→ No hires, no burnout
→ Just smart, scalable AI

Inside the Guides: 
→ How to set up Apollo + get access to their Beta Tools
→ How to build your personas and leads lists
→How to utilize Buying Intent to find people looking for you
→ How to use AI Assistant to automate 80% of the tasks
→ How to use the  Parallel dialler for those who want to cold call
→How to use workflows to automatically push new leads into your pipe every month

This isn’t a course.
It’s not a PDF with fluff.
It’s a plug-and-play system that actually works.

If you’re a freelancer, consultant, or agency owner stuck doing everything manually…

You don’t need a team.
You need a better system.
