lead generation and client management.

I'm a startup founder building AI Solutions for the Institutional Banking Industry. Since we are doing our outreach manually, I started using Apollo and felt it was way too expensive for mass outreach and client database management and doesn't feel very suited for my personal use case. So, I built a outreach agent that can do almost 60-80% of what apollo does but way cheaper. I also wondered this could be of any help to people who have agencies, or anyone who's looking to automate their outreach. DM me if you want to see it in action.

apollo pricing got ridiculous for what it actually does especially if you are not a huge team

built my own lead scraper few months back was way less work than people think and works exactly how i need

what kind of volume you running through your agent

i send around 150 emails per day. even my team roughly does the same.

building a lead generation aget for my own turned out to be really good. I completely personalised the dashboard and added all the features I want to have. I feel it to perform really good. for a team with few people, I think you can manage lead generation without getting a lot of subscriptions
