GTM JOB-CHANGE SIGNAL: Alex Karas just joined Attentive as a Senior GTM Engineer, bringing his AI and automation experience to a company serving 8,000+ brands. Attentive is the software behind texts and emails from brands like Urban Outfitters and Crate & Barrel. At Foley, Alex had room to experiment as the role took shape. “When Foley took a chance on me, I don’t think either of us knew exactly what the role would become,” he wrote. “That freedom ended up shaping the direction of my career.” ANDDDDDDDDD also a belated shoutout to Parker George, who was promoted into GTM engineering at Attentive three months ago. Congrats on the moves, Alex and Parker. <3📈 *beep beep boop over and out satellite noises*

We’re partnering with SpaceX Super Intelligence to put Grok Bot to work in Clay. We're showing you exactly how to build with it next Thursday, Oct 29. Here's a hint: - You tell Grok Bot in natural language what you’re starting with, what needs to happen, and what you want back. - It builds the workflow in Clay. - Then we’ll use it to automatically research companies, enrich contact details, and draft emails for the right rep to look over. - And finally, we'll have Grok Bot fill out web forms, log into apps, remember what's working, and pull Clay data from your phone. If you’re usually doing all this by hand, come hang with: - Alex Lindahl, Creator in Residence/GTME at Clay - Matthew Silberman, GTM and Marketing Strategy at SpaceXSI October 29, 2:30–3:30pm ET Reg here: clay.link/cFOzAsl Can’t make it? Register and we’ll send you the recording.

quick update from my co-founder Kareem.

We’re partnering with Anthropic for a live session on building outbound campaigns with Clay in Claude. Here's a hint at what we're covering: - You tell Claude who you want to sell to. - It uses Clay to find those companies, figure out who to talk to, and get their verified emails. - It does some homework on the companies so you have something to say when you reach out. - Then we jump into Claude Code and use Clay’s Agent Plugin to write the emails. We’ll look over the drafts together. This one’s for small business folks, whether you’re already building with APIs or still wondering what a CLI is. If you’re the one finding customers and writing the emails, come hang and L E A R N <3 Claude for Small Business: Build Your Growth Engine with Clay October 28, 12–1pm ET Reg here: https://lnkd.in/eXymai5T Dane Williams (Clay Software Engineer) and Lina Ochman (Anthropic Head of US SMB/PLG GTM), are hosting!!

Your sales elders had it a lot harder than you: - Lugging 20-pound phones - Fax machines - Selling lamps from a trunk Sales babies have it even harder: - Can’t sit in a chair - Can’t even say words - Hands covered in mystery goo Mishti Sharma cooked, again. 100 years of sales in 10 minutes, featuring a 95-year-old grandma and SEVERAL LEGIT ENTREPRENEUR babies with LLCs 👇

if your SDR: - waits six months to follow up - calls three times - says “i trust you” twice - can’t be called back - gets an “ok, thanks.” that’s not your SDR. that’s elizabeth holmes calling nathan fielder from federal prison.

On Tuesday, I'm doing an AMA with the Head of SDRs at Notion. If you lead an SDR team, you're not going to want to miss this. No moderator or script, just Johnny DeFazio and I answering all your questions. Our approaches are very similar, and we'll talk through it: - What we're automating - What we're not automating - What a modern SDR hiring profile should look like - How to get buy-in from execs for bringing in new tools (like Clay and Notion) Live AMA, presented by Clay, this Tuesday, 2 PM ET. Hope to see you there. Quick form to register here: clay.link/Kn8OHTE

Clay’s Summer of Launches is officially over, but the Clay Genie (me) is still on the clock. While everyone was keeping up with the BIG launches, we also shipped a few upgrades to the stuff you already use. TLDW: 3 updates from the past month that deserve your attention: ✨ Audiences everywhere: Audiences is now available across Sculptor, GTM Agent, and CLI, so your agents can use your GTM data to build smarter workflows with more context. ✨ SOQL imports: Enterprise customers can now pick exactly which Salesforce data they want to import into Clay, giving them more control over their CRM data. ✨ Credit spike alerts: Enterprise admins now get a heads-up when unusually high credit spend is detected. For the “wait, a second...where did those credits go????” moments. Let me know what you’re trying first and what else is on your wishlist!! We're granting wishes <3
