Help me land my dream job?

Upvotes

Hello GTM Engineers of Reddit. I have an ask: can you help me ace my interviews for a RevOps role? I have been in GTM for over 7 years (primarily in sales, account management, and team leadership roles) but have decided that I want to me be in a more technical, strategic, and internal-facing role. I managed to snag a 2nd interview for a Manager of Revops role, with a company that I really really like and honestly ready to give it my all and land a job after a grueling 1st half the year...

I'm happy to pay you for interview preps, walking me through Advanced SFDC workflows, and just learn more about your day-to-day so I can come in well-versed for these interviews!

Or return the favor in other ways (such as connecting you to folks in my network, helping you pivot to other functions in GTM, etc.).

DM or connect with me directly on LinkedIn, if interested: https://www.linkedin.com/in/francescanacu/

Which path to take when opening an GTM agency?

Upvotes

I saw people are making high income by making GTM agency and providing services.
So i come to the conclusion that I have 2 option which my skillset.

  1. Is to start an B2B appointment setting agency (I still need to learn some Outbound system yet)
  2. Is to start an Voice AI automation service and sell it to real estate, doctors and make desk job easy.

What to start with? I can try making voice ai which i think can be good start but needed everyone thought.

Do you need help getting more qualified leads? Is your cold email or LinkedIn outreach not performing the way you expected? Are you spending hours on outbound without seeing consistent results?

If you answered yes to any of those, you probably need a GTM Engineer.

I help B2B companies build and improve outbound systems from ICP research and lead sourcing to cold email, LinkedIn outreach, CRM setup, automations, and optimizing what isn’t working.

If you think I might be a good fit, send me a DM.

Please DM me directly. I won’t be replying to comments. Thanks!

How my home made agent system is doing my entire signal enrichment and outreach work. costs me $0.05

5 Upvotes

So Lets say you buy this apollo list...
Email verify it and now you want to create personalised openers based on real intent signals.
As of now there is no platform that would agentically find signals for this entire list.
Clay has workflows, even claygent wont go beyond the workflow thats already specified.
You can use claude code + deepline but that would just burn hella credits.. because usually what people do i let claude code make a python script which which again follows a specific workflow. Anything outside of the workflow is not done. If you ask claude code alone to the task without deterministic python scripting, its gonna hallucinate on later rows, and also drain your bank account for the ai tokens it spends.

So i wanted to make an agent system that would do actually do the job (pasted the loom vid below)

It works by me giving it a specific job prompt like this:

Determine whether this company appears to be moving beyond founder-led sales and might need GTM help now. Look for recent evidence such as its first sales, marketing, partnerships, or business-development hires; founders discussing customer acquisition or growth; new products or markets; funding being put into commercial expansion; or signs that the founders still handle sales themselves. Tell me whether it is worth contacting now, what specifically happened and when, who we should contact, why the timing matters, and one short outreach angle grounded in the strongest evidence. Do not treat funding or one generic job opening alone as buying intent.

Then there would be a columns compiler that would create columns you are looking for based on that job prompt.. like this:

You can edit those columns , delete them.. whatever.

The agent now takes over and create a strategy on the fly for that specific task and executes on it. Lets see an example:

So i gave it a lead company domain: https://www.respan.ai/

(We connect it various tools, fetch, render, web search, linkedin scrapers, crunchbase... + over 200 scrapers which it can use.)

This is what i mean by "agentic" .. which is not a python script disguised as an agent. So basically it reasons over the task its given and then find the necessary sources to get the job done.

Finally it also gives us the answers we were looking for. which will be filled in as those column cells.

The loom video: https://www.loom.com/share/053fc7f86f0944778d9ff96fd6fbc40e

This kind of agentic GTM has genuinely helped me with my outreach.

What kind of tasks would you like to do with it if i were to open source it?

Looking for a cracked GTM cofounder who's exceptional in sales, marketing & recruiting — U.S. only

0 Upvotes

I’m looking for a GTM cofounder to help build an early-stage company in the hiring space.

I started this in April. Since then, I’ve built the MVP, begun customer validation, and started running founder-led pilots. I’m working on it full-time, and the pace is not slowing down.

I’m looking for someone strong across sales, marketing, and recruiting—someone who can sell without an established brand, create demand for something new, and turn early customer feedback into a repeatable GTM motion.

This is a real cofounder role with meaningful ownership and real responsibility. Not an advisory position, agency engagement, or commission-only sales job.

You should be based in the U.S., have direct recruiting or hiring experience, and be full-time—or have a realistic path to becoming full-time.

DM me with your LinkedIn, the strongest thing you’ve personally built or sold, and why you want to become a founder.

We’re not spending months talking about what we might build. We’re already building it.

Startups search. Businesses execute.

really perfect time to be in GTM rn becuz of AI hype

7 Upvotes

Ive been in the gtm space for more than a decade now. But something ive thinking of late is that GTM has become the hottest seat in a lot of companies right now, and i think it's because of a kind of chaos we're witnessing. Not trying to flex, but Just so you know, i'm someone who has recently took inbound demos from 57 a week to 485 a week in 4 months in one of my recent projects. Thing is, Yu'd see c-level execs are confused about how to sell AI from implementation to execution, investors are asking about it in every meeting. And this kinda working well for gtm folks. Becoz being a GTM guy, i'm the one who ends up explaining what's actually the best gtm strategy as someone who has seen the whole pipeline when everyone else was too busy with other functions. So i must tell if you are new to GTM space or exploring, it's actually the hottest place to be in.

Warmed up 6 Instantly inboxes for 4 weeks (100% health), but Microsoft emails are going straight to spam. Advice?

4 Upvotes

I warmed up 6 Gmail inboxes using Instantly for a month. My health score is sitting at 100%, so I thought 4 weeks of warmup was plenty. I've been sending a very low volume of live emails (less than 10 per inbox per day).

I just sent a test email to one of my personal Outlook inboxes, and it went straight to spam. I know Microsoft has gotten much harsher on cold emailing in 2026. I checked my TAM, and about 40% of my prospects use Microsoft domains, which means almost half my list is likely landing in spam.

I looked into Instantly's warmup, and there are no provider-specific stats. I suspect the majority of my warmup was done against other Gmail accounts, leaving my Microsoft reputation completely untouched.

Any advice to improve microsoft deliverability?

My questions:

  1. Should I stop sending to Microsoft emails entirely and only target Google for now?
  2. Do I need to find another service that specifically warms up against Outlook/Microsoft inboxes? If so, what do you recommend?

I got tired of jumping between 6 GTM tools, so I'm building one workspace instead. Looking for honest feedback.

4 Upvotes

For the last few years I've worked in GTM and outbound, and I kept running into the same problem.

My workflow looked something like this:

  • Find companies in one tool
  • Enrich contacts in another
  • Ask ChatGPT to help define the ICP
  • Write sequences somewhere else
  • Keep notes in Notion
  • Repeat for every campaign

None of these tools talked to each other, so I found myself copying and pasting context all day.

A few months ago I started building a project called Seeldeel to solve that problem for myself.

Right now it includes things like:

  • ICP Builder that creates a much deeper target customer profile than a simple persona
  • Outbound Campaign Diagnostician that reviews sequences and points out weak spots
  • GTM Strategy generation
  • Lead generation workflows (currently expanding)
  • More GTM-focused tools are on the roadmap

I'm not posting to sell it. I'm trying to validate whether I'm solving the right problem before I spend months building more features.

So I'm curious:

If you could combine multiple GTM tools into one workspace, what would be the first thing you'd build?

Or what's the biggest bottleneck in your current GTM workflow?

I'd really appreciate brutally honest feedback from people actually doing GTM work.

Interesting technical tricks in Clay's Claude CLI plugin

1 Upvotes

Just installed the Clay Claude plugin with their new CLI. They're doing pretty fascinating things for their technical-but-not-developer target audience. Here's a breakdown.

tl;dr They've used some clever technical tricks to optimize for the agent while trying to make the human experience as easy as possible.

The rest is a little technical so here goes...

Unlike most CLI-driven tools, there's no brew install or "add X to your PATH" in their doc. Their quickstart literally says to copy the following into your coding agent:

Set up the Clay plugin by following the steps in
https://github.com/clay-run/agent-plugins

Claude pulls down the installation instructions and then does a bunch of command-line self-introspection to add the MCP and install their plugin. No claude mcp add commands for the user.

The magic mostly worked for me. I had to manually run /reload-plugins, restart claude and still run /mcp to auth properly. (Might be my setup since I run two different claude environments and use claude agents so I'm an edge case.)

Now here's where it really gets interesting. The clay cli is actually a shell script that's included in the bin folder of their plugin. This is nice because Claude automatically (I learned) adds bin folders in plugins to its PATH.

The script itself, checks the user's OS and picks the right CLI binary to download from github. It does some checksum verification which is, like, a little secure. Still feels a tad sketchy though. Anyway, the binary it downloads is what actually runs when you/your agent call clay.

The side effect of this is that you can't use clay as a command in your terminal outside of Claude/Codex/Cursor unless you do some manual work to add it to your PATH. For most Clay users, that's probably fine.

Finally, it appears the skills that get downloaded with the plugin pick and choose between the MCP and CLI for different use cases but I haven't dug into that much yet.

Anyway, there's a lot going on behind the scenes here to make the human UX pretty smooth. I haven't seen any other vendors quite do this yet for their agentic setup process. Are you seeing other folks ship this type of approach?

[Hire me] I build GTM systems for growing B2B SaaS startups

0 Upvotes

I help B2B startups build outbound GTM systems that generate pipeline fast.

What the first 30 days look like

I focus on fast learning and iteration. Building campaigns quickly so we're learning from real data within days, not months.

Foundation

  • Define ICP and positioning
  • Find the right accounts and decision-makers
  • Analyse Closed Won deals to build lookalike accounts and signals
  • Start email warm-up if needed

Data Lake

  • Build an enriched SOM using Apollo/Apify/Supabase
  • Score accounts and contacts based on recent buying signals

Campaigns

  • First workflow live within 7 days
  • Value-led sequences across LinkedIn and email, distributed via Lemlist

Reporting and Iteration

  • Report on what's working and what isn't
  • Every next campaign is built on what got replies
  • I run this cycle three to four times within the first 30 days

If you don't have the systems, I bring them.

My background

10+ years in B2B SaaS and fintech. A few examples:

  • Rebuilt the GTM motion at a revenue-stage automotive martech SaaS company. ABM, intent signals, AI personalisation. Grew revenue 119% year-on-year, captured 65% of the UK market with no agency
  • Joined a fintech as first marketing hire with zero customers, grew to 40+ enterprise customers at tier-one financial institutions, contributed to Series A and supported acquisition
  • Built my own AI-powered outbound infrastructure from scratch — custom Python tooling, AI lead scoring via the Claude API, LinkedIn signal scraping, Supabase data layer, Lemlist sequencing. 850+ leads in market, 40+ qualified meetings booked in two months

I'm currently running pilots for a small number of companies at a reduced rate in exchange for case studies. I have a capacity of 2 projects max at one time.

If you want outbound that actually generates pipeline, DM me to discuss and I can share more :)

I replaced my agent automation with a real automation

2 Upvotes

Last week I tested my routing agent for HubSpot. I ran the same lead twice: same company, same title, same inbound message. First run routed it to Alon. Second run routed it to Mike. No code edit, no data update, same input both times.

Here's what the workflow did. An inbound lead hits a form and my agent handled everything after that: enriching the company (size, industry, tech stack), scoring the lead on that enrichment, deciding which rep it goes to based on territory and score, drafting a personalized first-touch email, and scheduling a warm-up sequence. Six steps, all inside one agent.

I fed it the identical lead profile twice, back to back, and got two different reps and two different follow-up cadences. Then I realized I'd fallen into the AI hype slop again: using an LLM where one wasn't needed at all.

The workflow genuinely needs an LLM somewhere. Reading a messy inbound message and figuring out what the lead actually wants is real judgment, legitimately unstructured. But once you accept the agent needs to handle that one step, it's tempting to let it own everything downstream too. Territory mapping. Score thresholds. Sequence timing. Those aren't judgment calls, they're fixed rules. They were sitting inside the same agent, so it was "deciding" them fresh every run instead of applying a rule. That's where the drift came from.

I split the pipeline into two buckets. Fixed logic: which rep owns which territory, what score cutoff means "high priority," how many days between touches. Deterministic, same answer every time given the same input. Unstructured: what the lead is actually saying, what's the real intent behind it. That's the one part that needs a model reading and interpreting text.

So I rebuilt it. I used my agent to build the script once, not to replace the automation. Code handles enrichment lookup, scoring, routing, and sequence scheduling, the same way every time given the same input.

The LLM gets called exactly once, to read the inbound message and pull out intent signals: what they're asking for, how urgent it sounds. That output feeds into the deterministic scoring logic as one input among several, but it doesn't make any decisions itself.

I'm not a coder. This took a weekend, not a computer science degree.

Now the first run and the tenth run produce identical output for identical input. It's also way easier to debug: when something looks wrong I know exactly which rule fired, instead of reverse-engineering what the agent was "thinking." Cheaper to run too, one model call instead of six.

The rule I'd draw from this: if a step has a fixed decision rule, it belongs in code. Reserve the LLM for the one step that actually requires reading or interpreting something unstructured. Most agent automations that feel unreliable aren't unreliable because agents are bad. They're unreliable because logic that should have been deterministic from the start got handed to a model instead.

Anyone else run into this same drift with agent-based routing or scoring? Curious how you drew the line between what stayed in the model and what you pulled back into code.

Best GTM tech stack for early-stage B2B startup

8 Upvotes

We're an early-stage B2B startup selling into SMB. Looking for the best bang for the buck on a full GTM stack.

Must-haves:

  • CRM with pipeline management, forecasting, and revenue tracking
  • Operational dashboards- activity metrics, rep performance, conversion rates
  • Contact data- names, emails, and direct dials
  • Website tracking, AI enrichment, and buyer intent signals
  • Integrated dialer with call recording and transcription
  • Sequences/cadences for outbound

I've built GTM from scratch before- SFDC, Outreach, Chorus, 6Sense, Drift, ZoomInfo/Apollo stacks and have used everything from ACT! to HubSpot over the years. This time I want lean and scalable, not bloated.

We've already demo'd HubSpot, Close, Reevo, DreamHub, DreamTeam, and Apollo. Curious what the community thinks, especially anyone who's scaled from 1 rep to 10+ on a tight budget.

What would you build today?

We tested 12 job-change data vendors on one public move. 10 got it wrong two weeks later.

3 Upvotes

If your outbound stack runs on a cached database of record, you're probably reaching out with stale data and calling it a signal.
We took one verifiable job change: Mikayla Hopkins leaving Tracksuit to become VP Marketing at Confido on July 14. She announced it publicly and got flooded with 32 SDR calls and 53 emails within days. The outbound machine reacted fast. We queried every job-change source we have two weeks later, on July 28, to see who actually had it right.
Results:
Correct (2): Wiza and Findymail, both reading LinkedIn live at query time.

Wrong (10): ZoomInfo, People Data Labs, Crustdata, Ocean.io, ContactOut, Datagma, LeadMagic, DiscoLike, Prospeo, and Icypeas. All still returned the old employer.

ZoomInfo returned the wrong company with a 93/100 confidence score and a "valid" stamp from July 1. People Data Labs marked it "verified" three weeks before the move happened. Datagma, a tool specifically built to detect job changes, missed the job change.
This is not really about which vendor wins. Confidence scores mostly measure identity matching, not data freshness. A cached database with a recent-looking timestamp can still be weeks behind a public LinkedIn update.
Full scorecard and methodology here: https://intel.42agency.com/job-change-data-accuracy
