The problem it solves

Following up with every new lead by hand means writing a fresh email each time and remembering to track who you already contacted. Leads slip through the cracks when your list gets long.

Who it fits

Sales and marketing teams managing a growing list of leads in Google Sheets.

How it works

  1. The automation runs on a daily schedule and pulls leads marked Pending from Google Sheets
  2. AI writes a personalized subject line and email body for each lead
  3. A tracking ID is added to the email so replies and opens can be followed
  4. Gmail sends the email and the automation starts a follow-up sequence
  5. The lead's row in Google Sheets is updated to Done
What you get

Leads who hear from you every single day

You get personalized outreach emails sent daily to every pending lead with opens and replies tracked automatically.

What you get

A sent, tracked outreach email for every pending lead, with your spreadsheet automatically kept up to date.

What you need

A Google Workspace account, an OpenAI API key, and a tracking service.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
