What it does
- Gates writing behind research: runs web searches for recent news, funding, and LinkedIn activity before drafting anything.
- Assigns a personalization tier (1–3) based on signal strength, and honestly drops to Tier 3 volume templates when no signal exists.
- Produces the full sequence: connection request (300-char cap), first message after accept, Day 7 follow-up, Day 14 follow-up (email pivot with subject lines), and Day 21 break-up.
- Outputs a pipeline tracking table (stage, next action, resurface date) plus a required self-critique pass that flags generic or pitchy messages.
- Three modes — quick, standard, deep — from one-off testing to a repeatable campaign engine with A/B variants.
Who it's for
- B2B sales and BD reps, and founders doing their own prospecting.
- Marketers and agency owners running LinkedIn DMs alongside cold email.
- Anyone whose spray-and-pray templates are getting ignored and wants a repeatable personalization process.
- Freelancers and consultants systematizing new-client outreach.
Example uses
- "Build sequences for three fintech CEOs who just closed a Series A" → searches each funding announcement and drafts Tier 1 messages.
- "Just give me a connection request based on this person's latest LinkedIn post" → quick mode returns one request plus one follow-up.
- "I'm launching outreach to 50 accounts this quarter" → deep mode delivers tiered templates, A/B variants, and a tracking framework.
