About Outbound Wizards by SalesRobot

GTMEs didn't think they would evolve this way. They just kept automating things until it became their whole job. Now the tooling is moving faster than anyone can keep up with, there's no real playbook, and half the advice online is either too vague or written by someone who hasn't actually done it. This podcast is for you if you're in the middle of figuring it out - real workflows, numbers, and mistakes from expert GTMEs at startups, mid-market, and enterprise. If you're wiring up Clay, rethinking your outbound stack, or trying to make AI actually useful in your pipeline, welcome to the The GTM Engineer Podcast.

   Turn Your Best Sales Rep Into A Machine ft. Yuval Canfi

   In today's episode, I chat with Yuval Canfi, GTM Engineer at Celery, about building custom outbound machines for internal sales teams. Yuval walks through the platform he built at his previous company, Eko: type in a company name and Clay finds the website, pulls threshold signals like headcount, location, and vertical, and ranks accounts by likelihood to close. Only the top-ranked companies get the pricier people enrichment, so thousands of prospects get worked efficiently, with agents checking websites and office locations to refine the score. We discuss why the GTM engineer's real customer is internal, the sales or CSM team, and why the job is scaling what top reps already do manually. Yuval shares his path from SDR to business operations to GTM engineering, why GTM knowledge matters more than engineering now that Claude writes the code, and his prediction that Claude becomes the orchestration layer while tools like HubSpot and Clay retreat to their core functions. His advice: start with one small, focused automation in n8n.

   AI Is Changing The Economics Of GTM ft. Lennart Kornblum

   In today's episode, I chat with Lennart, GTM Engineering Lead at Moss, about running fast-moving SMB outbound across Germany, the Netherlands, and the UK. Lennart supports both BDRs, who focus purely on outbound, and SDRs, who handle marketing handoffs. His strongest SDR play targets funnel drop-offs: when someone enters an email but doesn't finish, his team reverse-enriches the account and contact, then personalizes follow-up around what they entered. He also explains why website visitor de-anonymization is much harder under European privacy rules. By prepping accounts with AI, Moss cut BDR research time by 50%, and some signal-based plays convert at roughly double the usual rate, around 10% vs 5%. Lennart shares his path from sales ops at an HR consultancy to building a data team at Moss, then back to IC as AI reshaped the stack. He predicts companies will need multiple GTM engineers to grow without adding headcount, explains why Moss runs production automations in n8n and GitHub Actions while keeping Clay for experiments, and warns new GTM engineers against blindly trusting AI.

   GTM Teams Should Operate Like Product Teams ft. Andrew Davis

   In today's episode, I chat with Andrew, Head of GTM at Arda, about the context engineering layer that most outbound stacks completely ignore. Arda is the easiest way to implement Kanban for small and medium-size manufacturers — tying physical Kanban cards to a digital backend connected to supplier ordering so factories never hit a stockout. Andrew's most valuable build isn't a campaign; it's the authoritative reference layer he's built beneath all of them. Most enrichment tools (Clay, DeepLine, Exa) do a solid job telling your machine everything about a prospect, but almost nothing tells it about you — your brand voice, verified proof points, which accounts to walk away from. Andrew has addressed this with a context graph that agents traverse via a decision tree rather than fetching fresh context every time, running the whole thing headless from the command line for fewer burned tokens and improving answers over time. We also talk about his path from founding AE to full-time GTM engineer, why sales experience matters more than an engineering background in this role, and why humanity and empathy are the one thing an agentic workflow can't afford to lose.
