Set up your first AI outbound team

What you’ll need

Autonoms onboarding is outcome-driven: you answer a few high-level questions and Autonoms provisions a workspace, builds context from your public assets, generates an ICP + plan, and spins up a specialist agent team.

• A clear goal (meetings booked or pipeline target)
• Your website URL and public positioning (so agents match your voice)
• Your target audience (industry, company size, titles, geography)
• At least one execution tool you can connect (email, enrichment, scheduling, CRM)

Step 1: Define the outcome

In one sentence, specify the outcome you want (examples):

• “Book 40 qualified meetings with US companies hiring engineers.”
• “Generate 500 qualified leads this quarter from fintech teams in West Africa.”

Autonoms uses this to decide team composition, cadence, and success metrics.

Step 2: Provide business context (fast + deep options)

Autonoms ingests public signals like:

• Website pages (product, pricing, case studies)
• Company LinkedIn profile
• Competitor positioning (optional)

You can also run a deeper research pass that produces richer artifacts (see ICP and Growth Plan ).

Step 3: Confirm your ICP

Autonoms will propose an Ideal Customer Profile (ICP). Review and adjust:

• Industries / verticals
• Company sizes
• Titles / decision makers
• Geographies
• Buying triggers (hiring, funding, tech stack, etc.)

Step 4: Connect the tools you’ll use

Start minimal. Common starter stack:

• Email: Gmail / Google Workspace
• Data & enrichment: Apollo, Clearbit (and/or CSV imports)
• Scheduling: Google Calendar, Calendly
• CRM: HubSpot / Salesforce
• LinkedIn: Chrome plugin (for LinkedIn outreach at human-like cadence)

See Integrations and Permissions

Step 5: Review messaging + sequences

Autonoms generates:

• Messaging templates (email, LinkedIn, call scripts)
• Multi-touch sequences with clear cadence and conversion definitions

Use Human Operator approvals for the first rollout (recommended). See Human Operator.

Step 6: Launch and monitor

Once launched, you’ll use:

• Inbox: talk to the orchestrator and agents, review decisions
• Activity: see a real-time audit trail (what happened, when, why)
• Data Hub: see structured outputs (prospects, emails, meetings, notes)
• Insights: performance trends and bottlenecks

A good first-week rollout

• Day 1: validate ICP + templates on a small cohort
• Day 2–3: expand to bigger batches, refine messaging with A/B tests
• Day 4–7: scale volume slowly, add channels (LinkedIn/calls), tighten guardrails
