Dani Hao ✨ here from the Apollo Community! It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these takeovers and WOW, what a year it’s been so far. 😱 We’ve TRIPLED the community since February and it’s grown from 2k to 7k+ amazing members. 🚀 We’ve had some phenomenal guest speakers this summer, such as Kasey Ingram ✝️, Harry Sims, Neha Mehra, Leslie Douglas, Maria Bross, Saad Khan, Travis Tyler, Kevin White, Tony Wiedenski, Jed Mahrle, Alex Boyd, Brittany Stachenfeld, Erin Bolton, Tom Alaimo, Cole D'Ambra, and Firat Berber. Here’s a few highlights: ↳ We launched direct access to support for our members in Slack ↳ Ran more betas than we can count ↳ Exchanged over 82k messages in the last 28 days (whew, that’s a lot!) Now that we’re going into a new month and going into the fall season it’s a good time to reset. ⭐️ What IS the Apollo Community? ⭐️ - Our mission is to create the best community out there for sales and GTM experts. That’s the North Star. To get there, we are committing to investing in our community in the following ways: - We’ll be bringing in the best speakers and experts to teach our community members real time-proven tactics to help level up your career and help you close more deals and bring in more revenue. - Members will get first-dibs access to product betas and a sneak peek look behind the curtain (while giving our product and engineering team valuable feedback) - Exclusive invites to in-person events that Apollo is famously known for by Kayla Drake 🌻 and Sara Lieber 😉 - Giveaways and opportunities to win cool prizes and exclusive swag. - If you’re a startup founder or strapped for resources, we have also launched an Apollo for Startups sub community for you to connect with like-minded folks who get your growing pains (shoutout to Allie Shaw). - For the first time this year, we will be investing in opportunities to empower our current members and community leads to lead local events in their local cities. If you’re not yet part of the community, we’d love to have you!

Here is how I find new accounts in my territory to outbound every week. Not like mass outbound to EVERY SaaS company in Dallas, but really really targeted. Niche down your list. And when you have niched down your list -> Niche it down one more time. - Territory - Company size - Company type - Fit score (we built this custom according to the best buyers fro Dreamdata) - Recently visited our pricing (or pick other signals - these buyers are ready!) Then pick the best buyer personas. Not all the Finance managers in the company, but the ones who are usually THE BEST buyers for you. Go small, targeted and personAlised. I use Apollo.io to both create lists and sequences. (btw, sequences that start with a Linkedin personalised touch perform best)
