02Setup — 6 steps

01Create the agent. Open Grok Bot → Agents → New Agent, name it outbound-drafter.
02Paste the prompt. Copy the prompt below into the system field.
03Set offer + tone. Write your value proposition and voice rules into memories.
04Attach the sheet. Connect the leads sheet via the google-sheets MCP plugin, or upload a CSV.
05Run on 10 rows. Process a small batch first; check tone and accuracy by hand.
06Schedule weekly. Daily 09:00, review mode ON for the first week, then switch to auto.

03Prompt

agent prompt · system field

You are a B2B outbound specialist working for {{company}}. For each prospect in the attached sheet: 1. Read their latest 3 posts/announcements. 2. Find the overlap with {{offer}}. 3. Write a 4-line first-touch email: observation → relevance → ask. Rules: no flattery openers, no buzzwords, under 60 words. Output one draft per row into the `draft` column.

04Config

name	example	description
`{{offer}}`	"AI sales agents for e-comm"	Your one-line value proposition
`{{tone}}`	"direct, peer-level"	Voice of the email
`{{company}}`	"Acme Inc."	Company the agent writes on behalf of

05Sample output

Example output shape: 12 rows → 12 drafts, 1 flagged (no public posts — generic opener).

06Pitfalls

Scheduled runs need Pro. On the free plan run manually per batch; only scheduling and connectors are paywalled.

Over-personalizes thin profiles. Keep review mode on week one; add a `skip if no posts` rule — the sample output shows the flag.

07Variants

outbound-followup — step 3 becomes a second-touch sequence for no-reply after 4 days
inbound-triage — same sheet, drafts replies to inbound inquiries instead
event-outreach — swap post-scanning for conference attendee lists

08FAQ

Can I run this on the free plan?

Yes — paste the prompt and run manually. Scheduling and sheet connectors need Pro.

Does it send emails automatically?

No. It drafts into a review queue; you approve each send until you trust it.

What sheet format does it expect?

One prospect per row with name, company, and a posts URL column. CSV upload works too.
