Tell me what you're trying to fix. The call is with me, and I'm the one who'd build it. Book a call with Garrett 01 The setup ## A growth lead who builds his own systems Richard is hands on. He writes the workflows, runs the tools and owns the numbers. What he wanted from an advisor was someone to pressure test decisions with, who has built these systems before. So most of this engagement is a weekly conversation about what to run, what to cut and what to measure. 02 What I advise on ## What we actually work through each week Most of the value is in the weekly session. Richard brings what is running and what is stuck, and we decide what to change, cut or measure. These are the topics that came up most since May. 01 ### A fixed order for debugging outbound When replies dipped in May, we walked the funnel in order: send volume first, then inbox placement, then replies split into overall, out of office and positive. The point was to treat deliverability and copy as ongoing maintenance and get faster at finding the problem. 02 ### Fewer numbers on the dashboard I pushed the dashboards down to what the business acts on: pipeline, meetings, emails and calls per week, then qualified pipeline and closed revenue. Every chart shares one time frame. 03 ### A CRM structure reps can keep clean We replaced a single status field with company type and lifecycle stage, and organized activity by channel, event type and classification. That makes a number like positive reply rate something you can filter for. 04 ### Attribution on the deal Each deal gets stamped with the last email and campaign sent to its champion. Automated outbound and SDRs roll up to one pipeline target, and an email touch before a call shows as influence, not a hard split. 05 ### Working a TAM without burning it When Richard worried about running through the best accounts, my advice was to loop back with different messaging across email, LinkedIn and calls, and to get everyone at Rubie describing the company the same way. 06 ### Enrichment that costs less We went through the email waterfall step by step: try an inferred address first, and require validation before anything comes back. We also talked through which workflows stay in Clay for auditability and which move to a CLI. 07 ### Simplifying what got too bespoke By August Richard had built a system that took a lot of work off the reps, but only he could maintain it. I pushed to cut the enrollment chain, block bad contacts at the point of entry, and free up his time for inbound, LinkedIn and brand. 08 ### What to own and what to hire We used a simple test for hiring: when an area is big enough that Richard being 10% good at it is a worse use of his time than a full owner, build the case and hire. 03 What I built ## A few things I built or shared Here is the work I can point to, separated from the work Richard and other partners did. 01 ### Demo booking page I built [/book-demo](https://www.rubiehq.com/book-demo) in Rubie's brand in October 2026. Rubie reviewed and merged the work, and Richard pointed the site's calls to action at it. 02 ### First inbound routing workflow I set up a first version on Default in October 2026, starting from a template Default's team supplied. Richard reworked the router after that. 03 ### Outbound tracking I shared a tracking repo in May 2026. Richard adapted it and ran it himself. 04 ### Persona and title sheet A sheet of who to target by title, which Richard used in his outbound work. 05 ### Tool decisions I helped Richard review terms and negotiate when Rubie chose an outbound sequencing tool in October 2026. 04 Rubie's own work ## What Richard and other partners did Richard built the outbound tracking worker, the SDR enrichment and follow-up workflows, the SDR to AE handoff and the reworked router, and installed the site pixel. Rubie's paid ads, SEO, site redesign and much of its email program came from Rubie's team and other partners. ## Rubie case study FAQ ### What does OneGTM do for Rubie?
