GROWTH STRATEGIES
Win in 2025 with AI-enabled outreach
Your outbound strategy is bleeding money right now.
Want to know why?
You're still doing everything manually, aren't you?
I see it all the time - marketing & sales teams spending hours scraping LinkedIn,
Manually sending connection requests, and trying to stay on top of their inbox.
It's exhausting, isn't it?
I get it - I used to spend 4 hours every day just researching leads and sending personalized messages.
But here's what changed everything...
Last year, we generated $15M at GrowthAssistant.
Want to know what's mind blowing?
We did it with just ONE full-time marketing employee and TWO GrowthAssistants!
How?
By combining smart automation with human expertise.
And today, I'm going to show you exactly how we did it.
First, here's your complete guide to automating your outbound without losing the personal touch:
(btw download here an even more complete and detailed step-by-step guide!)
Step 1: Build Your Lead Generation Machine
Use Phantombuster to automatically collect Twitter followers and engagers daily
Set up Sales Navigator with specific filters like "Posted on LinkedIn in past 30 days"
Connect Clay.com to enrich your LinkedIn data with 24+ data points
Track company revenue, funding rounds, and recent news automatically
Extract data from both 1st-degree connections and post engagers
Watch competitor engagement for potential leads
Let these tools run daily to build your lead list while you sleep
Step 2: Create Your AI-Powered Qualification System
Connect Zapier to OpenAI for automatic lead scoring
Rate prospects from 1-10 based on their fit
Create filters that only show leads scoring 7 or higher
Use AI to analyze Twitter bios and LinkedIn posts for intent signals
Track job changes and promotions for perfect timing
Set up automatic alerts for trigger events like funding rounds or new positions
Focus on leads showing active engagement in the last 30 days
Step 3: Master Your Personalization Engine
Use Custom GPT to draft highly personalized messages
Reference recent posts, mutual connections, and company news
Keep Twitter DMs under 280 characters
Include specific icebreakers based on their content
Mention shared interests discovered through AI analysis
Train your AI with successful past messages
Use a mix of professional and casual tones based on the prospect's style
Step 4: Perfect Your Multi-Channel Follow-Up Sequence
Day 1: Send a LinkedIn connection request with a personalized note
Day 3: Follow up with valuable insight from their industry
Day 7: Send an email with a relevant case study
Day 14: Share content that addresses their pain points
Day 21: Final value-add touchpoint
Step 5: Optimize Your Results
Track acceptance rates on connection requests
Track response rates across channels
A/B test different message styles
Analyze which content gets the most engagement
Adjust your AI prompts based on successful conversations
Refine your lead scoring criteria monthly
Build a database of winning templates
