Signal-Based Lead Generation ft. Georgios Giatsidis

Outbound Wizards by SalesRobot

In today's episode, I talk to Georgios from Relevance about building outbound systems for early-stage startups and why focusing on accelerator-backed companies became their winning niche.

We explore how Relevance evolved from list building to full-service outbound strategy, and why they specifically target "builder" founders who excel at product development but struggle with sales. Georgios shares their approach to signal-based prospecting, explaining how they use Clay to identify high-intent prospects rather than relying on generic demographics. We discuss their philosophy on strategic positioning in segmented markets, the importance of understanding founder personas, and why the tight-knit accelerator network creates powerful referral channels. Georgios also reveals their testing methodology for messaging and their vision for scaling through partnerships with top startup accelerators.

Enjoy 🙂
