Custom project quotes. Domains, mailboxes, Instantly, AI subscriptions and verification fees are scoped separately. Inbox placement and results cannot be guaranteed.
A HEAD START ON RESEARCH
A broad database. A precise shortlist.
I have access to approximately 1.2 billion source email records across niches, including extensive Apollo-sourced coverage. That gives us a starting point for finding the right audience and reducing repeated research.
Owner-reported inventory, not a count of unique, verified or contactable prospects. We check permitted use, relevance and freshness, then deduplicate and verify your selected list.

GUY KOGEN / FOUNDER & BUILDER
THE PERSON BEHIND THE SYSTEM
Hi, I'm Guy. I connect the dots.
I bring together email marketing, lead research and automation to make outreach easier to operate and understand.
Over 2+ years in email marketing, I've worked on campaign infrastructure, personalized messaging and lead generation across different industries. I'm familiar with major outreach platforms, scraping tools and research methods. Today, I focus my campaign work on Instantly.
You work directly with me. We share the context, review the decisions and build something your team can use.
Yes. A one-time build can include account connections, authentication checks, Instantly configuration, an initial campaign, a supported AI connection, prompt templates and a walkthrough. You keep ownership of your accounts. The scope and handover are agreed before work starts.
What can I actually do through ChatGPT or Claude?
With a supported MCP connection, you can review campaign analytics, organize leads, inspect replies, prepare sequences and manage supported campaign or account actions. Instantly API access and a compatible AI-client plan are required. Launching, sending and other changes use an agreed approval workflow.
Do you work with other outreach platforms?
I have experience with major outreach platforms and research tools, including Snov, Apify, n8n and Make. My current campaign delivery is exclusively in Instantly. Historical portfolio work includes other tools.
Are all 1.2 billion records ready to email?
No. This is the approximate size of my available source database, not a count of unique, verified or contactable prospects. I check niche coverage, relevance, permitted use, duplicates and freshness, then scope fresh verification for the selected list before launch.
Do you guarantee meetings or inbox placement?
No. Results depend on your offer, market, list quality, sending history and recipient behavior. I set up the foundations, test the messaging and make decisions from actual performance. The case studies show past projects, not a guarantee.
What does it cost?
Projects are scoped individually. The quote separates setup, lead sourcing, validation and ongoing management. You pay providers directly for accounts, domains, Instantly and AI subscriptions. Start with a short call or message me on Upwork.
I found you on Upwork. Where should we talk?
Please message me on Upwork. Pre-contract conversations and any work originating there stay within Upwork, in line with its platform rules.

Tell me what you sell, who you want to reach, and where you are now. We'll work out the right starting point.
