🚀 Step 2: Kick off AiSDR onboarding

Once you log in, AiSDR will already have some background on your business, so you can create your first campaign draft right away. A few things to set up while you're here:

📫 Complete the mailbox request form

You can always do it under the Team tab > Order Mailboxes.

Please note, mailbox setup is final:

  • Once submitted, mailbox assignments can't be changed

  • Domain selections and mailbox names are irreversible

  • Double-check everything before clicking Submit

🔎 Explore Ami AI recommendations

Ami AI helps you generate and launch outreach strategies in minutes. Provide your strategy details, and the system researches your audience, identifies relevant segments and messaging style, and designs campaigns tailored to your goals. Once you choose a campaign you like, AiSDR sets it up and runs it on autopilot, covering messaging, lead targeting, and outreach for you.

This gives you two advantages:

  1. You move from idea to active outreach with minimal effort.

  2. You get a clear view of what types of campaigns are possible with AiSDR.

🤖 Step 3: Connect additional integrations

Integrations are key to getting the most out of AiSDR. By connecting your CRM, LinkedIn, and website, you make sure AiSDR can collect high-quality leads, sync data automatically, and stop campaigns at the right time, so your outreach stays relevant and efficient.

CRM: HubSpot

Why: Sync leads to and from HubSpot and keep contact data updated automatically.

How to connect: Go to Settings → Integrations → HubSpot, click Connect, log in to your CRM, and authorize AiSDR.

💡 Good to know: This can only be done by a CRM admin.

📄 Connecting HubSpot to AiSDR

LinkedIn

Why: Automate LinkedIn activity (connection requests, likes, and messages) so you can reach leads across several channels.

How to connect: In Settings → Integrations, enter your LinkedIn login credentials, click Connect, and complete verification (including 2FA if enabled).

Calendly (optional)

What it does: Stops campaigns automatically once a lead books a meeting.

How to connect: In Settings → Integrations, click Connect and log in to your Calendly account.

💡 Good to know: Other meeting links are supported by AiSDR as well, not just Calendly.


🙅 Step 4: Upload your suppression list

A suppression list keeps AiSDR from reaching out to contacts you want to exclude.

  2. Choose the most convenient way to add emails or domains to the list
