GTM Engineering Workflow

An automated, agent-driven lead-to-revenue system — from ICP identification to calendar booking. Three coordinated functions (sourcing & qualification, outreach execution, reply & booking management) read and write a single shared record per lead.

The pipeline, end to end

Every lead moves through nine phases across three functions. Phase 9 doesn't exit the system — it feeds cold or "not now" leads back into sourcing when a new buying trigger fires.

Nine phases, in detail

Each phase feeds clean, scored, qualified data into the next — a single record per lead, updated in place as it moves through the system.

PHASE 01

ICP Identification

Defines the target company and buyer profile — industry, size, geography, pain points, decision-maker titles, and buying triggers such as funding, hiring, or expansion.

Sets the filter for phases 02–09
PHASE 02

Lead Sourcing

Pulls prospects from company sites, public directories, Apollo/B2B databases, LinkedIn, social listening, job posts, funding news, and industry events.

Public, lawful data only
PHASE 03

Enrichment & Verification

Confirms ICP fit, identifies the real decision-maker, checks country/language match, verifies email, phone and LinkedIn, and removes duplicates and bad data.

Output: clean, usable lead list
PHASE 04

Lead Scoring

A three-stage signal funnel — qualify, score, enrich — runs 21 signals per lead, producing a Buyer Score and a Helper Score.

21 signals · 3 stages
PHASE 05

Categorization by Motive

Routes every qualified lead into one of seven motive categories, so buyers, helpers, and partners each get a purpose-built outreach path.

7 categories · 3 routes
PHASE 06

Omnichannel Outreach

A five-touch, 14-day cadence across email, LinkedIn, and SMS — round-robin sending, hard daily caps, human-paced timing.

5 touches · 14 days
PHASE 07

Reply & Sentiment Routing

Classifies every reply by sentiment and routes it automatically — from booking within 15 minutes on interest to an immediate stop on a hard no.

5 response paths
PHASE 08

Calendar Booking

Sends a booking link on detected interest, confirms the slot, updates the CRM to "Call Booked," and alerts sales on Slack — instantly.

Auto CRM + Slack alert
PHASE 09

Retargeting Loop

Leads marked cold, dry, or "not now" don't drop out — they re-enter sourcing and enrichment automatically when a new buying trigger fires.

Automatic re-entry

Under the hood

The four mechanics that carry the most weight for a technical buyer: how leads get scored, how outreach is paced, how replies get routed, and how motive determines the ask.

Built for enterprise scrutiny

Public, lawful data only
Sourcing draws exclusively from company sites, public directories, and lawful business data — no scraping of private or gated records.
One record per lead
All three functions read and write the same shared record — no duplicated state, no drift between sourcing, outreach, and booking.
Human-paced, capped cadence
Hard daily send caps per channel and a 30-second delay between LinkedIn actions keep every account behaving like a person, not a bot.
