Have an agent find leads and set up demos
A solo SaaS founder used Dots to find companies, filter them, send tailored outreach, and fill the calendar with sales demos.
- What they did
- The founder connected Dots to their inbox and schedule, then gave it a single instruction for outbound sales. Dots split the work into recurring pieces: one part checked news, hiring, funding, and technology clues; another removed weak matches; another drafted an email opener based on a specific detail; and a final part managed replies, suggested meeting slots, and assembled one-page briefing notes. After the founder approved the first 20 messages, the system kept operating by itself, with a daily cap of 30 emails and a rule to stop when a prospect said they were not interested.
- How it went
- Across four days, it reviewed 300 companies, marked 61 as qualified, and produced outreach that brought in 18 replies and 14 booked demos. Those meetings represented $186k in pipeline, and nine prospects were ruled out because they were too small or lacked budget.
- Tips
- Start with a human review period so you can catch awkward copy or overbroad targeting before the agent takes over. Put clear limits in place for volume and make sure the agent pauses before any action that cannot be undone.
Try it yourself with Dots
Act as my outbound sales assistant for [product]. My target customer looks like [industry], [company size], and [buyer roles], plus any other filters I should use. Look up [number] companies that may fit, then score them against those rules and return a shortlist with a brief reason for each match. For every company that passes, draft a personalized note to [contact role] that references one specific detail you found, and propose available demo times from my calendar. Show me the shortlist, the drafts, and the suggested times first, and do not send, book, or submit anything until I approve the batch. After approval, stay under [daily send limit], and stop and ask before any irreversible action such as sending, booking, deleting, or submitting.
Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
