Automate conference outreach and meeting booking

A poster used Hermes to run daily attendee outreach for two weeks and fill a conference calendar with meetings.

What they did
They pulled the attendee list from the event app, enriched it with Exa, and turned the outreach process into a runbook with rules for timing, channels, and message style. Then they set Hermes to wake up each morning and carry out that plan on its own in the two weeks before the conference, targeting about 200 people.
How it went
Across two conference days, Hermes booked more than 30 meetings, and new meetings kept getting added during the lead-up. The post only describes the process at a high level and links out to a longer write-up for details.
Tips
Keep the attendee list, enrichment, and messaging rules in one clear runbook so the agent can follow the same process every day. Add an approval step before any messages are sent, and stop the workflow once the day’s batch has been logged.

Each morning for the next [14 days], use my attendee list in [file or spreadsheet] to contact people for [conference name]. Use [runbook file] for cadence, channels, and message style, and enrich entries with [tool or source] if needed. Draft the outreach batch first and pause for my approval before sending anything. After I approve, send the messages, record replies and booked meetings in [log], and stop for the day once the batch is complete.

Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
