Is your sales pipeline suffering from the "feast or famine" cycle? 🏆 Sales Development Representative (SDR) & Outbound Expert ⭐ Specializing in B2B Prospecting, High-Volume Cold Calling & Omni-Channel Systems Hi, I’m Muhammad Zaid. Let’s face a hard truth: a sales pipeline built on "hope" and single-channel email blasts is a pipeline that is going to dry up. If you want predictable revenue, you need a predictable, math-driven outbound system. I operate as your Full-Cycle Outbound Sales Engine. I bridge the gap between scraping raw, cold data and putting a highly qualified, budget-approved decision-maker directly onto your calendar. By combining forensic Lead Generation with aggressive Cold Calling and synchronized Omni-Channel Outreach, I bypass gatekeepers, handle objections seamlessly, and deliver meetings that actually convert. Whether you are a SaaS startup, a marketing agency, or a high-ticket B2B consultancy, I engineer the outreach systems that fill your closers' calendars. 🚀 MY CORE OUTREACH COMPETENCIES: 1️⃣ Omni-Channel Outreach Campaigns (The Multiplier) -Executing the "Surround Sound" strategy: Synchronizing cold calls with personalized cold emails and LinkedIn connections to surround the prospect and maximize reply rates. -Setting up automated CRM drip sequences (GoHighLevel/HubSpot) to nurture warm leads who aren't ready to buy today, ensuring zero lead leakage. 2️⃣ High-Volume B2B Cold Calling (The Spearhead) -Executing 100–150+ outbound dials daily using predictive dialers (Mojo, Kixie, Aircall). -Utilizing psychological pattern interrupts to bypass receptionists and command the attention of C-level executives. -Turning standard brush-offs ("Send an email," "We have no budget") into engaging, value-driven discovery conversations. 3️⃣ Forensic Lead Generation (The Fuel) and building high-intent lists of decision-makers matching your exact Ideal Customer - Strictly verifying all corporate emails and appending direct mobile dials to guarantee a <1% bounce rate. 4️⃣ Stringent Appointment Setting (The Result) -Filtering out tire-kickers by strictly qualifying prospects using the BANT framework (Budget, Authority, Need, Timeline). -Booking meetings directly into your calendar (Calendly) with detailed CRM briefing notes for a seamless handoff.

I've spent the last 7 years in sales doing the unglamorous stuff that actually moves deals forward: cold outreach, pipeline building, lead qualification, and closing. Not as a theory, but as someone who built businesses from scratch and had to figure it out along the way. At Merat, I co-founded an e-commerce company and took it from zero to $400K+ in revenue. At Jogajunto Agency, I ran the full B2B sales cycle as a BDA, grew the qualified pipeline by 20% in one quarter, and closed proposals at a 15% conversion rate. I'm fluent in English and Portuguese (native), with intermediate Spanish, which means I can run outreach and calls across North American and Latin American markets without losing anything in translation. What I can help you with: - Outbound prospecting and cold outreach (email, LinkedIn, cold calling) - Lead qualification and ICP definition - CRM management (HubSpot, Pipedrive, GoHighLevel) - Full sales cycle support, from first touch to close - Market entry for companies targeting Brazil or LATAM I work best with founders and growth teams who need someone that treats the pipeline like it's their own business.

👋 I've helped B2B founders go from zero GTM to acquisition, $600K+ enterprise pipeline, and first qualified meetings within weeks, working embedded as a fractional GTM partner and advisor across DevTools, Life Sciences, FinTech, Logistics, Market Research, B2B SaaS, and more. Before fractional work, I spent four years at a high-growth cloud security company progressing from their second second Enterprise Sales Development Rep to Head of Americas Partnerships, building their outbound system from scratch, then scaling channel revenue to $6.6M in impact. If your outbound isn't converting, your ICP isn't clear, or you're running sales yourself and hitting a ceiling, that's exactly where I work. Whether you're launching outbound for the first time or fixing what's not landing, I help you get structure and honest market feedback quickly, then refine what works into something repeatable and scalable. ✅ ICP definition + targeting logic ✅ Positioning + message architecture ✅ Outbound sequencing across LinkedIn + email ✅ Qualification and follow-up frameworks ✅ CRM workflows that prevent leads from stalling ✅ Founder-led sales support — call prep, talk tracks, and live deal coaching ✅ Hiring + managing outbound contractors — lead gen, cold calling, and sequencing roles — once the motion is validated and ready to scale ✅ Strategic advisory — serving as a thinking partner for founders on GTM direction, market entry, and commercial decisions before or alongside execution Recent Projects ✔️ B2B Market Research — Rebuilt the entire GTM engine for a 30-year SMB research firm. Repositioned their core offering, built a modern outbound stack, and generated $600K+ in enterprise pipeline with meetings at Google, Microsoft, Visa, AWS, Lenovo, and DoorDash. ✔️ Developer Tools / DevInfra — Built the GTM system that helped a seed-stage startup secure enterprise design partners and meetings with a no-code platform, a medical imaging company, a global logistics operator, and an enterprise IT firm — contributing directly to their acquisition by a leading cloud infrastructure platform. ✔️ AI / RFP Technology — Joined after a market pivot, replaced unfocused outreach with structured ICP experiments, and closed the first U.S. customer and first annual subscription within the first month. Now managing an expanding pipeline into adjacent segments. ✔️ Logistics Tech / Cold Chain — Joined after a failed sales hire and months of unfocused outreach. Ran structured vertical experiments across five markets, identified the strongest wedge, and rebuilt the GTM motion into a pilot-first sales system. ✔️ FinTech / Payments Platform — Diagnosed a broken inbound motion where leads were falling through the cracks. Redesigned the CRM workflow and rebuilt qualification and follow-up processes — turned stalled inbound into consistent qualified meetings within 30 days, with a 200% increase in sales productivity. ✔️ Cloud Security / Channel Partnerships — Built outbound and channel programs at a high-growth cloud security company from the ground up — starting as their second SDR and progressing to Head of Americas Partnerships, creating the partner model still in use today.
