I help B2B companies build predictable pipeline, generate qualified opportunities, and drive revenue growth through proven sales strategy, modern sales technology, outbound execution and closing.
35+ years in sales | $1M+ earned on Upwork | 12,730+ hours | 501+ projects | Expert Vetted | 100% Job Success Score
I work with SaaS companies, PE backed firms, and founder led businesses that need stronger pipeline, better qualification, improved deal velocity, and scalable revenue systems.
My first priority is understanding what creates the most value for your business. Only then do I design the sales strategy, workflows, and outbound systems needed to deliver measurable business results.
Over $1M earned on Upwork helping B2B companies generate pipeline, book qualified meetings, and close revenue.
If pipeline is slowing or deals are stalling, I step in to optimize outbound structure, improve conversion, strengthen follow up, and drive revenue growth.
This is a fit when
• Opportunities linger without forward movement
• Leadership is still too involved in sales execution
• Close rates do not reflect market potential
• Outbound sales lacks structure, accountability, or momentum
What I Do
I design, build, and optimize B2B revenue systems that generate qualified pipeline and close 10K to 100K opportunities through:
• Cold email and outbound email campaigns
• LinkedIn prospecting and social selling
• Strategic outbound calling and appointment setting
• Sales development and SDR execution
• Full cycle lead generation and B2B closing
I lead the strategy, targeting, messaging, qualification, pipeline management, CRM oversight, and sales execution required to consistently move opportunities toward revenue.
When appropriate, I leverage modern AI and sales technology to improve research efficiency, targeting precision, and workflow execution while applying human judgment to positioning, qualification, and sales strategy.
How I Create Value
• I start by identifying what creates the greatest commercial value for your business.
• I build systems instead of isolated campaigns.
• I optimize for revenue, not activity.
• I combine modern technology with 35+ years of proven sales judgment.
• I stay accountable for measurable business outcomes.
Verified Performance
• $1M+ earned on Upwork
• 501 completed engagements
• 12,730+ hours of direct sales execution
Top Rated Plus
Expert Vetted
100% Job Success Score
What I Build
• B2B outbound sales systems that generate qualified decision maker meetings
• SDR frameworks that increase appointment setting conversion
• High ticket sales closing for 10K to 100K opportunities
• CRM and pipeline management systems that prevent revenue leakage
• Sales process optimization and call review to improve conversion rates
Typical Client Outcomes
• Predictable qualified pipeline
• More qualified meetings
• Higher close rates
• Better pipeline visibility
• Stronger sales process control
• Consistent revenue growth
Engagement Structure
Engagements are structured for speed, clarity, accountability, and measurable ROI.
• Retainer plus hourly execution
• No commission only arrangements
• Proven systems not experimentation
I work with a limited number of priority clients to protect execution quality and results.
If you're a founder or business leader who needs predictable pipeline, qualified meetings, and stronger sales execution, let's talk.

🟢I'm Online! Generated +$6M in B2B sales. I build amazing B2B outbound systems that deliver qualified meetings. 100% deliverability, 5x better than cold email, zero spam risk, no warm-up time. Launch in 24 hours!
Why My B2B Outbound System Outperforms Traditional Cold Email x5 (I have proof)
100% Guaranteed Deliverability: Every message reaches your ideal prospects’ inboxes: no spam folders, no warm-up delays, no domain risks.
Direct Decision-Maker Access: The system consistently connects with founders, owners and executives who actually make buying decisions.
Compliance and Safety: All outreach is fully compliant with U.S. and international standards, keeping your brand reputation secure.
High-Intent Targeting: Double-filtered data to reach only your ideal clients with verified buying signals: not generic contact lists.
Less Saturation, More Results: Most businesses rely on outdated bulk email tactics: this approach cuts through the noise and gets real replies.
After running hundreds of campaigns, testing every possible approach, and selling millions: I’ve learned that successful outreach is like building a machine: if one gear slips, the entire system stalls.
The core elements that make outbound work are:
List precision (65%): finding leads that match your Ideal Client Profile.
Message strategy (25%): writing like a human, not a template or AI-feel! (Very Important!)
Deliverability (10%): I can ensure and prove 100% Deliverability rate
Ongoing optimization: refining your system week by week.
Why Most Campaigns Fail:
Is this what your last outreach campaign looked like?
- You bought a list from Apollo or ZoomInfo.
- You wrote a quick email template and blasted it to hundreds of contacts.
- You got a few opens… maybe a handful of replies, but no real traction.
Most companies start here: and it’s not their fault. There’s a lot of noise online promising that outbound lead generation is as simple as signing up for a $99 tool, uploading a CSV, and waiting for the leads to roll in. The truth is, it takes a lot more precision and system design to make it work consistently.
When campaigns fail, it’s usually because the list isn’t qualified deeply enough. Ask yourself:
Am I targeting businesses with a current and measurable pain point?
Is my data clean, verified, and enriched beyond the basic exports?
Do I have a repeatable process to find similar leads every month?
If not, your list isn’t ready: and blasting generic emails won’t fix that.
My Process
1. Discovery & Strategy: We start with a short call to clarify your ideal client profile (ICP), offer positioning, and desired ROI. This ensures every campaign is built around real business goals, not guesswork.
2. Targeting & Messaging: I build a verified, high-intent prospect list using multiple reliable data sources. I craft persuasive, human-centered outreach messages designed to engage and convert.
3. Launch, Tracking & Optimization: Once the system is live, I monitor performance, analyze responses, and continuously refine copy and targeting for better traction. You’ll get transparent reporting and measurable ROI improvements week after week.
What do I need from you to start? Only 2 things!
1. A company email. Example: Jorgeatyourcompanydotcom (it's not for sending. ONLY for receiving responses)
2. Download the FREE version of Leadfeeder on your website
That's all! No warm up time needed! We launch within 24 hours!
Campaign Results:
- Tech/Software companies: U$1 Million in sales in one year.
- Marketing agencies: 20+ booked calls per month. Avg Ticket: 50K.
- Local services: 40+ inbound inquiries within 30 days.
And much more B2B Industries... Let's have a video call!
If you want an outbound system that delivers real leads, not empty blasts, let’s talk. I’ll show you how to turn your outreach into a consistent, scalable sales pipeline.
