Overview We're building a fully automated outbound sales engine for a marketing agency. The system needs to identify high-intent leads, personalise outreach at scale using AI, run multi-channel sequences, and convert interest into booked calls — with minimal human involvement. This is a build project, not ongoing management. We want someone who has done this before, knows the best current toolstack, and can deliver a working system within 2–3 weeks. What we need built 1. Lead Scraping & Enrichment Automated daily scraping of newly funded startups (Crunchbase/Harmonic) filtered by niche (AI, fintech, SaaS, tech), funding stage (Seed–Series B), and geography X/Twitter keyword monitoring for intent signals ("just launched," "we raised," "excited to announce") from accounts matching our ICP Enrichment pipeline pulling founder name, company, role, LinkedIn URL, email, and recent social posts into a master CRM (Clay or Airtable) 2. AI Personalisation Layer First-line personalisation generated per lead using Claude or GPT-4 — pulling from their announcement, recent posts, and company description Dynamic variable fill for outreach templates so every message reads as individually written Logic to skip or flag leads where enrichment data is insufficient for personalisation 3. Multi-Channel Outreach Sequences LinkedIn: connection request → personalised message → follow-up (via Phantombuster, Dripify, or equivalent) Email: 3-step sequence with personalised first line, social proof visual, and scarcity close (via Instantly or Smartlead) X/Twitter: automated follow + reply to recent post (genuine engagement, no pitch) via Taplio or equivalent Sequence pauses automatically on any reply, books call or routes to Slack notification 4. Call Booking Automation Calendly or Cal.com integration — interested leads get a direct booking link at the right sequence step Slack/email alert to founder the moment a call is booked with lead context included CRM stage updates automatically as leads move through the pipeline 5. CRM & Reporting Full pipeline in Clay, Attio, or Airtable: New → Contacted → Replied → Call Booked → Proposal Sent → Closed Daily summary report: leads added, emails sent, replies received, calls booked Reply rate and conversion tracking per channel and per message variant Tools we expect you to know Clay · Apollo · Instantly or Smartlead · Phantombuster or Dripify · Zapier or Make · Crunchbase API or Harmonic · Claude API or OpenAI API · Calendly or Cal.com · Attio or Airtable · Taplio or Blackmagic (X automation) If you have strong opinions about better tools for specific parts of the stack, we want to hear them. What we're not looking for Generalists who will learn on our budget Anyone who needs the strategy explained to them Agencies or teams — we want one specialist who owns this end to end Anyone whose answer to "have you built this before" is "something similar" What a strong application looks like Tell us specifically what stack you'd use for each of the five components above and why. Show us one system you've built that is closest to this — a Loom walkthrough is ideal. Give us a realistic timeline and a fixed price for the full build. Applications without a specific stack recommendation and evidence of prior work will not be reviewed. Budget: Fixed price — tell us your number. We're not looking for cheap, we're looking for someone who can build this right the first time. Timeline: Deliverable within 3 weeks of project start. Engagement: Project-based with potential for ongoing retainer if the system performs.
