Sales automation · n8n · B2B prospecting
Freelancer based in Paris, I automate B2B prospecting for small businesses and SMEs with n8n. Before that, I built or took over four prospecting teams over more than ten years.
I build end-to-end prospecting pipelines for B2B small businesses and SMEs: target definition, sourcing, enrichment, email verification, sequences and sending infrastructure.
For B2B small businesses and SMEs that already have salespeople
I work for small businesses and SMEs with 10 to 150 employees that already have salespeople, but see their tools, especially their CRM, as a burden rather than a help. Most of them are SaaS vendors, IT services firms, consulting firms and agencies.
Automating B2B prospecting with n8n
I build the pipeline that brings the right contacts into your salespeople's CRM every morning, so they focus on selling instead of searching for who to call.
Account research and qualification
I find the decision-makers and measure the size of each sales team, then I enrich the contacts and verify every email address.
No-code n8n workflows
I build the workflows in n8n without a single line of code, so your team can run them on its own, without calling in a developer.
Email deliverability
I set up the sending infrastructure, with domains, mailboxes, SPF, DKIM and DMARC, then I check that emails actually land in the primary inbox.
Call coaching
I work on cold calling with your salespeople: I listen to their real calls and correct them live, together.
A 4 to 6 week engagement
Most of the time, it takes the form of a 4 to 6 week engagement: we clarify the target, I produce the lists, and I work on calls with your salespeople.
