Q4 Is Here: Two Ways to Fix Your Outbound Fast
Your reps don’t need another pep talk they need enablement that actually works. Here’s how I can help you and your team sharpen up this quarter

Welcome to the GTM Launchpad newsletter! Each week I will share a sales play to help you grow your business, level up your sales game and succeed in the trenches
It’s officially Q4
This is the quarter where careers get made or where reps and managers end up on the chopping block
I know because I’ve been in the trenches with leaders like you and I’ve seen what happens when outbound isn’t dialed in
Mitch (SDR at Voltaiq) was struggling. We worked together on a weekly basis for eight weeks. Not only did he turn it around he got promoted to BDR Manager
Darren F. and I have been meeting every Friday for 2 months. We rebuilt his workflows, messaging and tech stack now his outbound motion runs like a machine
One bottom performing rep was on a PIP. After 60 minutes together he was a top performer the next month
I’ve sat in live cold call sessions with reps, fixed objection handling on the spot and even saved a manager $5k in tech spend by cutting the wrong tools and unlocking perks through my partners
This isn’t theory
It’s execution
and it works
That’s why I opened two offers this week exclusively for Launchpad readers 👇
1️⃣ Q4 Outbound Action Pack – $500
In 60–90 minutes you and I will
Find the 2–3 biggest blockers in your outbound motion
Build a custom 90-day action plan for your team
Hand you a swipe file (3–5 sequences, my cold call opener, objection flow)
Give you the full recording + notes so your team can implement immediately
This isn’t $500 for a “chat”
It’s $500 for clarity, assets and a roadmap you can plug in tomorrow
Only 10 available this week
2️⃣ Outbound Underground – $400 with code GTM
This isn’t “just another Slack community”
Think of it as fractional enablement for your sales team
Live office hours 3x a week → reps sharpen cold calling, cold email and social selling in real time with me and special guests
1:1 and group coaching → your reps get feedback and support from me and peers who are in the trenches
Tech stack included → Apollo, ConnectAndSell, Sybill, Sendspark (with more rolling in)
Outbound Vault → proven playbooks, templates and prompts they can plug into their workflows immediately
Reps inside are booking 1–2 extra meetings a week just from reframing outreach and getting live reps in
How it works: when you click you’ll pay + set your rep up. They’ll automatically be redirected into the Slack community so you can either handle it yourself or just forward the link and let your rep take it from there
As a Launchpad subscriber you get $100 off with code GTM → only $400 for the year
Bottom line
You don’t have weeks to waste Q4 is here let’s make sure October counts

P.S. 10 Action Packs + discounted Underground seats are open right now. Once they’re gone they’re gone
Thanks for reading. See you again next week at 8 am MST!
