How It Works
- Raif selects 20 contacts from his LinkedIn network — CISO/VP Security, 100+ employees, regulated industries (finserv, healthcare, government)
- Sends messages manually using authority sequences as templates, tweaking based on personal knowledge of each contact
- Lead magnet: "Compliance vs capability" article. URL never in cold messages — sent only after prospect replies
- Results tracked via Supabase or shared spreadsheet. 28-day timeline from first message to final breakup.
- Review after 4 weeks against success criteria
Decision Gate
All three targets met
Scale via HeyReach automation. Source CISO leads from Apollo. Authority content becomes a secondary automated campaign alongside maturing.
Replies met but no meetings
Refine messaging based on reply content. Run a second test of 20 with adjusted sequences.
Fewer than 5 replies
Deprioritise the CISO segment. Redirect all effort to the maturing organisations campaign.
Rules for CISO Test
- ✕ Do NOT automate — Raif runs manually for signal quality
- ✕ Do NOT source from Apollo — existing connections only
- ✕ Do NOT put article URL in cold messages — reply-first rule
- ✕ Do NOT mix CISO contacts into maturing sequences
- ✕ Do NOT pause existing campaigns (238-241)
Key Decisions & Notes
- 8 Apr — CISO authority test strategy finalised. 20 contacts, manual LinkedIn, 28-day timeline. Three-outcome decision gate defined.
- 2 Apr — Primary target pivoted to maturing orgs (5+ employees, no security staff). Smart Prep is the product hook.
- 2 Apr — Three segments defined: maturing (primary), CISO test (20 contacts), partners (unchanged).
- 2 Apr — A/B test required: service-wrapped vs product-led for maturing segment. Split at Email 4 and LinkedIn DM 2.
- 2 Apr — 100 sample leads for Raif review before mass outreach. Quality gate.
- 2 Apr — Company size floor: 5 employees (not 20). Micro-SaaS and AI-era businesses need compliance too.
- 2 Apr — Marketplace strategy: customers before partners. Build traction first.
- 1 Apr — Authority content validated. Article-led approach works for senior audience. Pain-point DMs deprecated for that segment.
- 1 Apr — Existing CEO/MD campaigns (238-241) continue. 6.2% reply rate — do not disrupt.
