Convert competitor funding announcements into warm sales leads by identifying companies that might need AI infrastructure solutions.

Workflow Steps

1

RSS Feed

Track funding announcements

Subscribe to TechCrunch, VentureBeat, and PitchBook RSS feeds filtered for AI and infrastructure funding news. Use a service like Feedly or directly monitor RSS URLs.

2

Zapier

Filter relevant opportunities

Create a Zapier RSS trigger that monitors feeds for articles containing keywords like 'AI startup', 'infrastructure', 'Series B+'. Filter for funding rounds over $50M as these companies likely need infrastructure partners.

3

HubSpot

Create and score leads

Automatically create new contacts/companies in HubSpot from the funding news. Set lead scores based on funding amount (higher funding = higher score) and company stage. Add tags for 'AI Infrastructure Prospect' and funding stage.

4

HubSpot Sequences

Launch outreach campaign

Trigger a personalized email sequence for high-scoring leads. Reference their recent funding in the first email and position your AI infrastructure services as supporting their growth plans. Include congratulations and relevant case studies.
