We had a sales team who did exactly this before these agents, and they got demos on auto-pilot without touching apollo.io or salesforce, because we used GPT-4 to respond like they would using their history of responses. You can set this up yourself using the webinar I linked above. We setup a calendly link with a round-robin scheduler to the whole sales team, and they constantly get demos on auto-pilot.

Parker Harris was actually one of my early mentors, because my first co-founder was the first investor in Salesforce(Halsey Minor). A lot of his advice went into building this.

We're not selling to the CEO, we're selling to the VP of sales who can now a/b test this, or the startup founder who can't afford a sales team yet, and I'm very sure a large percent of reps will fall below the line vs the auto-responders. We increased the number of demos our sales team saw with just GPT-4 auto-responding, then we doubled the total reply rate with personalized outbound. It makes sense that it wouldn't have the exact same reply rate. I'd be happy to give you access to get your insight on the direction we should go if you're interested.
