This is crazy, Salesloft CRO says the SDR / BDR role is done for on this podcast.

Yet Salesloft’s primary user is an SDR..

They just let go their internal SDR team

Everyone's talking about AI Sales Reps and AI still can't write a half decent email.

Someone please prove me wrong

[Eric Gordon @EricGQ]

@anthohc Hahah this is true

[Eric Gordon @EricGQ]

It's no joke

@JackAMAustin It’s easy with the right playbook (and the right product) I’d guarantee for the right company

Facts lol

[Eric Gordon @EricGQ]

Avoid sending the same exact email copy to thousands.

Add micro-variations to reduce pattern detection.

[Eric Gordon @EricGQ]

Use text-only follow-ups for better deliverability.

[Eric Gordon @EricGQ]

Check time zones before scheduling —

sending at 3 AM local time reduces reply likelihood.

@camgomersall Google workspace, outlook, private SMTPs

[Eric Gordon @EricGQ]

Use multiple sending platforms if possible.

Platform-level flags can hurt all accounts under that system.

Keep outreach content evergreen

so you can reuse it without updates tripping filters.

Avoid back-to-back sends to the same recipient.

It screams automation.

If you inherit a domain from another team,

run a full blacklist check before using it.
