Find SDR Teams Doing Manual Outreach

The best buyers for sales automation are SDR teams currently doing it the hard way. They've already bought into outbound as a motion; they haven't yet bought the tooling. This Scout playbook builds a daily-refreshed list of them using behavioural signals, not job titles.

The problem

Sales Navigator returns thousands of SDR-titled contacts and almost all of them already sit on top of Outreach, Salesloft, or Apollo. Filtering for the teams still running outbound out of Gmail with a Sheets tracker needs evidence you can't get from a title search.

How DataChi runs it

We watch hiring posts that name specific manual workflows, infer sales-tech stacks from public job descriptions and tool integrations, and detect outbound patterns that look hand-sequenced (low daily volume, irregular cadence, single-channel). Every account on the list ships with the evidence that put it there.

What's included

  • Hiring-signal detection for net-new SDR functions
  • Sales-tech-stack inference to filter out teams already on a sequencer
  • Cadence-pattern detection that flags manual outbound
  • ICP filters for industry, headcount, and funding stage
  • A drafted opener per account with the trigger evidence inline

Who it's for

Sales engagement platforms, AI SDR vendors, lead-data tools, and outbound-automation companies selling into early-stage sales teams.

Outcomes

  • Target accounts your competitors' Apollo lists don't return
  • Reply rates that pencil out at any SDR cost-per-touch
