Helps teams design and launch automated sales development workflows, choose tooling, and score outbound prospects.
npx skills add chadboyda/agent-gtm-skills --skill ai-sdr -a claude-codeWhat ai-sdr does
This skill guides teams through setting up automated outbound pipelines. Before offering architecture advice, it checks current motion types, CRM tooling, budget tiers, and contact list health. Dirty CRM records make pipeline forecasting useless. The skill stops and asks for clarity when targeting criteria are missing.
The knowledge base details platform options across budgets, contrasting tools like 11x, Artisan, Clay, and Smartlead. It outlines a four-week rollout routine covering multi-channel outreach, hiring triggers, and handoff rules for human reps.
What it helps with
- evaluate AI SDR tools against team budget and tech stack
- build tiered qualification criteria using company signals
- map handoff protocols from automated sequences to human reps
- draft a four-week deployment roadmap for sales automation
Example prompts for the agent
- Compare Artisan and Smartlead for a small outbound team on HubSpot
- Define a tier-one lead scoring rubric based on recent hiring signals
- Draft a four-week schedule to roll out automated sales sequences
