Your thread on paying contractors in 40 countries

Hi Priya,

Your thread on paying contractors in 40 countries was the clearest take on it this year.

We host a weekly B2B podcast for founders, and that story would land well with our listeners. Would a 30-minute recorded conversation work for you?

The cases

Podcast guest outreach

A B2B podcast needed a steady flow of qualified guests, without invites that read like a mass blast.

I built a Clay pipeline that researches every prospect and writes each one a different email. Because no two emails matched, the campaign stayed out of spam. It runs every week, and I tune it between runs.

What a client wrote

He far exceeded my expectations.

He completed the assigned work as requested. And was able to suggest multiple ways to make our work better.

I would work with him again in a heartbeat.

Client, personalization at scale

About

I’m Shahzaib, a GTM engineer with a software engineering background. I build Clay pipelines and sending infrastructure, and when a tool can’t do something, I write the code for it.

I work with lead-gen agencies that have more client campaigns than hands, and with B2B startups where outbound works but nobody owns it yet.

On retainer I run three jobs every week: the domains and inboxes, the Clay tables, and the campaigns. You get a short report every Friday.

Domains, inboxes and tool accounts sit under your name. New domains need about two weeks of warmup, so most first campaigns land in week three.

You work with me directly. The person who reads your replies on Wednesday is the person who wrote the emails on Monday.
