Outbound Automation -- too good to be true?

Question

Long time skeptic of automation for sales outreach, and cringe at the emails I get in my inbox that are clearly written with ChatGPT and basic merge prompts.

That said, been hearing nothing but good things about Clay paired with Smartlead/Instantly

Curious if anyone has tried it themselves and the pros/cons from your direct experience?

Accepted Answer

Email automation is the fastest way to the junk folder, if it even makes it that far. My corporate spam filter nails about 90%, the junk folder gets about 5%, and the rest is just a "delete" key strike worth of effort.

Anyone considering AI email automation is an idiot.

Answer

Clay in my experience was pretty neat. I used the free trial to grab emails and LI profiles automatically after attending a conference and only getting names and companies from a list. I can see a lot of use cases for that tool.

It is a bit technical and there is a lot of features that aren’t obvious to use. Definitely requires some finesse.
