Generate Personalized Icebreakers

Overview

Create hyper-personalized cold outreach messages at scale by combining Google Sheets, web scraping, and AI. This workflow is perfect for sales teams, SDRs, and agency owners looking to boost reply rates with icebreakers that actually feel personal. It takes lead info from a Google Sheet—including name, email, company, and website—then visits each site, pulls meaningful text, and crafts a tailored message using AI. The personalized message is then written back into your lead sheet, ready for use in cold email, LinkedIn DMs, or CRM enrichment.
