GTM Outbound Strategy
Design a campaign brief and write the sequence copy. Every first touch must be grounded in a specific, timely signal about the recipient or their company.
Steps
1. Confirm setup β target segment + persona, pain hypothesis, trigger signal, product/offer, channel, and volume. Ask if any are missing before writing.
2. Build the messaging stack (do this before writing copy): - Hook: one specific, timely observation about the recipient (job posting, funding, content they published, company news). No hook = no reply. - Pain bridge: connect their signal to a problem you solve. One sentence. - Value wedge: one proof point β named customer story, benchmark, or contrarian frame. Not a feature list.
3. Select channel β default: LinkedIn DM + email combo for mid-market. Use cold email only for high-volume segments. Use Loom for enterprise/high-ACV.
4. Design the sequence β default 5-touch, 14-day cadence: - Day 1: Email β hook + pain bridge + soft CTA - Day 3: LinkedIn connection request β short note referencing email - Day 5: Email β case study or insight (never "just following up") - Day 8: LinkedIn DM (if connected) β value-add question or resource - Day 12: Email β honest breakup, close the loop
5. Write copy β produce ready-to-send copy for each touch.
