Hi, Affily needs more than a lead list it needs a complete outbound engine built around the right ICP, deliverability, messaging, and continuous optimization. I can help you build this system end-to-end: UGC/creator agency prospecting, verified lead sourcing, personalized cold email sequences, Instantly/Smartlead setup, follow-ups, testing, and campaign scaling. I've managed multiple B2B outbound campaigns, handling email infrastructure, verification, deliverability, and performance optimization to improve replies and qualified conversations. For Affily, I would focus on targeting agencies managing multiple creators and campaigns, then build a repeatable process that generates consistent opportunities. I can also provide ICP samples, outreach strategy, recommended tools, and a clear monthly setup/management breakdown. Salah Uddin

Hello Affily Team, I'd love to help build and scale your outbound engine from the ground up. My approach starts with defining your ICP (UGC, creator, and influencer agencies), sourcing verified decision-makers, setting up a high-deliverability email infrastructure (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, warm-up), and launching personalized multi-step campaigns with continuous A/B testing. Sample ICP Companies: Ubiquitous, Viral Nation, The Goat Agency, inBeat, NeoReach, Obviously, Fanbytes, House of Marketers, Billion Dollar Boy, The Social Savannah. Sample Email: Hi {{FirstName}}, I noticed your team manages multiple creator campaigns. Affily helps agencies centralize approvals, revisions, deadlines, and content delivery in one platform, reducing manual coordination. Would you be open to a quick 15-minute demo next week? Follow-up: Just checking if you had a chance to review my email. Happy to share a short demo tailored to your workflow. Recommended Stack: Google Workspace, Smartlead/Instantly, Apollo, MillionVerifier, Zapier, and Clay (optional). I'm happy to provide a custom setup, ongoing management plan, and optimise campaigns based on reply rates, positive replies, and booked meetings.

Hello, Building outbound for B2B SaaS is my main line of work, so Affily's setup is familiar ground. For UGC agencies I would source from Clutch, Sortlist, LinkedIn Sales Navigator and Apollo, filtering for agencies running multiple monthly campaigns with 10+ creators, then enrich and verify before anything sends. Ten matching your primary ICP: Ubiquitous, Viral Nation, Kynship, HireInfluence, Socially Powerful, The Influencer Marketing Factory, Billion Dollar Boy, NeoReach, Audiencly, Goat Agency. Infrastructure: 4 secondary domains, 3 inboxes each, 3 week warmup, then 25 to 30 sends per inbox daily. Tooling runs about 280 to 400 USD monthly across Smartlead, Apollo, MillionVerifier, Clay and domains. Last SaaS campaign I ran: 4,200 contacts, 6.8% reply rate, 2.1% positive, 19 meetings booked in 8 weeks. My fee is 900 USD setup, then 600 USD monthly for management, testing and scaling. The sample email with its follow up, the full tool cost breakdown and the enriched company list are attached. I work CET hours and send a short performance report every Monday. Best regards, Goran

Hi, There, I can build Affily’s outbound system from scratch—ICP segmentation, qualified lead sourcing, domain/inbox setup, deliverability, personalized sequences, automated follow-ups, reply handling, A/B testing, and gradual scaling. Sample ICPs: The UGC Agency, inBeat, UGC SHOP, Twirl, Trend, Brighter Click, House of Marketers, Sociallyin, Moburst, and HireInfluence. For inBeat: “Hi [Name], coordinating creators, deadlines, content submissions, revisions, and brand approvals across multiple campaigns can become difficult as volume grows. Affily centralizes that entire workflow. Would you be open to a 15-minute walkthrough?” Follow-up: “Hi [Name], are creator deliverables and approvals currently managed through spreadsheets, email, or multiple tools? If so, Affily may significantly simplify the process. Worth a quick look?” My recommended stack is Apollo ($49/month), Instantly ($47), MillionVerifier ($39), Make ($12), domains and inboxes ($60–120), plus optional APIs ($10–30)—estimated total: $217–297/month. My fee is $250 for research, infrastructure setup, sequences, automation, and campaign launch; ongoing optimization and management starts at $400/month. I track bounce rate, replies, positive replies, and meetings weekly, targeting under 3% bounces, 5–10% replies, and 2–5% positive replies after testing. I can share available campaign evidence privately and begin immediately. Waqas Ahmad

Affily Network’s ICP is clear, UGC agencies running multiple creator campaigns with structured approvals, so the outbound system will be designed around that buying workflow, not generic “SaaS” messaging. Approach (from scratch to scale): 1) Lead sourcing & qualification: build a target list of UGC agencies managing multi-creator calendars; qualify by campaign volume signals, hiring/outsourcing cues, and agency tech stack where possible. 2) Deliverability & infrastructure: domain warm-up plan, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, dedicated sending domain(s), suppression lists, and strict list hygiene using verification + re-verification. 3) Personalized sequences: 2-3 email threads with variable blocks tied to agency context (campaign cadence, review/approval pain, delivery coordination), plus automated routing for replies. 4) Automation: follow-up logic for non-responders, intent-based branching (link clicks/replies), and CRM capture for meetings. 5) Testing/optimization: iterate by segment and offer (workflow time saved, cleaner approvals, fewer delivery misses), tracking reply rate, positive replies, and meeting/booking conversion. Deliverables: 10 matching primary-ICP companies; one full sample outreach + follow-up; tool stack with estimated monthly costs; and a fixed setup + ongoing management plan. Ongoing management focuses on weekly data review, deliverability monitoring, and continuous refinement to scale safely while protecting domain health.
