About

Most cold email campaigns die in the spam folder or get ignored because the copy feels generic. This employee builds your entire outbound engine — from prospect research and list building to writing hyper-personalized sequences that reference specific company details. It manages sending infrastructure across multiple domains, handles domain warming, monitors deliverability, categorizes replies, and books qualified meetings directly on your calendar. For teams where outbound email is the primary growth channel, it replaces both an SDR and a deliverability specialist.

What they do

01

Research and build targeted prospect lists based on ICP criteria

02

Write personalized cold email sequences with unique first lines per prospect

03

A/B test subject lines, send times, and email body copy weekly

04

Monitor deliverability rates, bounce rates, and spam complaints daily

05

Categorize replies — interested, objection, not now, unsubscribe — and route accordingly

06

Book qualified meetings directly on your calendar from positive replies
