AI tools you'd use

Why it works

Generic outreach has stopped working and genuine research does not scale, so the value sits in the one verified detail per account - which is also the part that breaks if AI is allowed to invent it.

How it makes money

Per deliverable + retainer

How to start

Pick one segment narrow enough that you understand its problems.
Build the list in Apollo with the firmographic filters the client sells against.
Research each account for something specific and recent - a hire, a launch, a filing.
Verify that detail on the company's own site before it goes in an email.
Draft the opening line from that detail with Claude, keeping the rest of the sequence fixed.
Cut anything that could have been sent to any company on the list.
Send in small batches and read the replies rather than the open rates.
Honour opt-outs immediately and keep the sending domain warm.
Comply with the recipient's jurisdiction, not yours.
Report replies and meetings booked, never emails sent.
Charge per account researched, since that is where the work actually is.
