Hey, GTM Engineers!

Want to know what the top GTM Engineers are building around world?

I’m launching a new GTM Engineering series called GEAR - GTM Engineers Accelerating Revenue.

Think of this like TED. β€œIdeas worth spreading,” except for GTM Engineering β€” β€œWorkflows worth automating”.

My objectives are to:

  1. Highlight GTM Engineers.

  2. Showcase automations.

  3. Inspire creativity.

  4. Teach GTM Engineering

Our first GEAR showcases GTM Engineer, Harshil Bhimani, Founder of Clay Consultancy + Certified Clay Expert, based in Vancouver.

🎯 Objective:

Harshil’s workflow shows how you can:

  • Scale personalization

  • Automate handwritten letters via an API

  • Automate sending those letters to your ABM accounts

βš™οΈ GEAR Technology Spotlight: Scribeless

In a world saturated by digital outreach, people barely notice another email. But a handwritten note in your mailbox? That’s hard to ignore. They’re nearly always gets opened.

Scribeless leverages AI to create truly handwritten letters and postcards. It goes further than automated scripts with lookalike fontsβ€”their technology introduces subtle variations, mimicking a real human hand so expertly that even discerning recipients can’t tell the difference.

Now, with Scribeless, you can personalize and send handwritten mail at scaleβ€”100, 1,000, or 10,000β€”just as easily as sending an email campaign. It integrates with your CRM or workflow tools and supports powerful automation (even via API), so it fits straight into your stack and scales as you grow.

You’ll be in good company as Google, Panasonic, Uber, Allstate and other notable brands are customers.
