While visiting with family over the weekend, my sister in law (a successful agency owner) referenced using Lemlist for their cold email. Curious to know Grant’s + Jay’s thoughts around the comparison between the two!

All the fellow AI and automation nerds such as Yours Truly, @Blake Sims, @Jaron Shoptaugh, @Ryan Magill, and @Logan Skees are stoked to see this!! From the Instantly release notes: Instantly MCP Server is a connector that lets your Al assistants communicate directly with your Instantly account. Your Al can create campaigns, manage leads, pull analytics, and more. Instead of logging into Instantly, clicking through menus, and manually managing campaigns, you can simply tell your Al what you need: • "Create a 3-step email campaign targeting SaaS founders" • "Show me which campaigns have the best reply rates this week" • "Add these 500 leads to my outreach sequence" • "Pause campaigns with less than 2% reply rates" Your Al understands the request, connects to Instantly through MCP, and executes the action - all in seconds.

Heads up @Blake Sims @Jaron Shoptaugh @Ryan Magill @Logan Skees @Michael Reyes @Shane Furlong!! Happy Thanksgiving from the Lead Gen Jay Team 🎉 I had a big Thanksgiving dinner with my team last week. As I was savouring every bite, I paused… I remembered that young Jay, who just wanted to break into the business world, and started writing medical papers as a service... How that kid later took the lessons learned there... And translated them to Otter PR, his PR firm... How he started that firm from the ground up - and is now aiming for $700k/month with over 60 full-time employees. And it might sound like an odd realization, but sitting at that restaurant, I couldn't help but think that… "This wouldn't have been possible without cold emails." And no, I'm not saying you'll send a cold email and have millions rain from the sky… But I know for a fact that, if you learn the skill of cold email... You will stop worrying about where the next client will come from... and you'll feel safe knowing that if you want a new client for an unexpected bill, a spontaneous vacation with the fam, or a big dinner with your whole team (like mine)... You're just a few cold emails away. That's why, with nothing but gratefulness in my heart... I'm doing a MASSIVE discount for my Insiders 2.0 System. This system has EVERYTHING I've learned about cold email, which has allowed me to hit $600k months with Otter PR - and has helped over 1,000 businesses with their client acquisition. I update it frequently and if you join today, you lock in EVERY future update at no extra cost. So if you want to finally end the feast-or-famine and make your customer acquisition simple and predictable... Click here to enroll in Insiders 2.0 for 40% OFF (use code: GRATEFUL40 at checkout).
