Most founders think they need more outreach.
They don't.
They need outreach that actually runs.
I spent months manually researching leads, writing personalized messages, tracking replies. Classic founder trap.
The issue wasn't effort. It was that my outreach system only worked when I was actively working it.
So I built a different system.
Now my content research runs daily in n8n. Finds relevant conversations, extracts context, queues personalized outreach. Zero manual work.
The difference? My outreach volume stayed consistent whether I worked 12 hours or took the day off.
That's when growth became predictable.
Most automation advice focuses on saving time. But the real win is removing yourself as the bottleneck entirely.
Your system should run whether you're online or not.
What's one outreach task you're still doing manually that blocks everything else when you stop?
