"Automation Sprint": Predictable Outbound Pipeline

How we built a fully automated prospecting engine in 30 days for a bootstrapped founder drowning in manual work

Industry: E-commerce Analytics Tool

The Challenge: Manual Grind & Unscalable Founder

Technical CEO doing everything manually with no data visibility

Founder Bottleneck

CEO spending 15 hours/week on manual LinkedIn prospecting

No Data

Sporadic copy-pasted emails mean no open-rate tracking or A/B testing

Inconsistency

Outreach stops whenever the CEO gets busy with product or support

The Solution: 30-Day Execution Plan

From manual chaos to automated machine

Week 1

Tech Stack Setup

Full setup of Apollo, Lemlist, and HubSpot. Domain warming initiated to prevent spam filtering.

Week 2

Database Building

Building a verified list of 1,000 targeted e-commerce directors in Southern Europe.

Week 3

Scripting & Testing

Writing and A/B testing 3 different email scripts (Short value prop vs. Long value prop).

Week 4

Handover & SOP

Training the CEO to manage the entire system in just 30 minutes per day.

The Deliverables: Strategy & Results

A complete outbound machine, ready to run

Before vs. After

From manual grind to automated pipeline

Before: Manual

  • CEO manually sending 20 emails/week
  • Sporadic meetings (feast or famine)
  • Zero data visibility

After: Automated

  • System sending 50 emails/day automatically
  • CEO wakes up to booked meetings
  • Consistent flow of 5-8 qualified demos per month
"I was drowning in manual work. In just 30 days, Aquila built a machine that runs itself. Now I just check my calendar for bookings and focus on the product. Badr gave me my time back."
— Founder & CEO

Drowning in Manual Prospecting?

Let's build you an automated outbound engine that works while you sleep.

Automation without strategy is just faster failure. We build systems that actually convert.
