Talking Points
- Netlify gives DEPT's growth team deploy-on-demand โ spin up landing pages, experiments, and funnels without eng tickets
- Built-in A/B testing with Edge Functions: define variants in code, ship experiments same-day
- Deploy Previews collapse the review cycle from days to minutes โ growth moves at the speed of the hypothesis
- Netlify Analytics ties performance to conversion โ load time, cache hit rate, and experiment data in one place
- The DEPT growth loop accelerates when every funnel page is a Netlify deploy, not a Salesforce or WordPress plugin
Engagement Sequence
Day 1
LinkedIn connect โ send a connection request with a brief note. Reference a specific piece of content they've published or a shared industry challenge. No pitch.
Day 4
Engage on their content โ comment thoughtfully on a recent post. Make it about their perspective, not yours. Build presence before direct outreach.
Day 8
Direct message โ send the message below. Short, specific, no generic pitch. Reference their role and the Netlify angle that maps to their world.
Day 15
Follow-up value add โ share a relevant resource: a case study, a Deploy Preview demo, or a Netlify blog post that speaks directly to their use case.
Day 22
Email outreach โ send a short, personalized email with a soft CTA: "worth 20 minutes?" Reference the LinkedIn touchpoints briefly to show consistency.
โ๏ธ Suggested Outreach Message
Hi Saurabh,
Growth teams move fastest when the deploy cycle is measured in hours, not sprints.
Netlify gives DEPT's growth team direct deploy access โ spin up landing pages, experiments, and funnel variants without engineering tickets. A/B tests run at the edge via Edge Functions. Rollbacks happen in seconds. Every variant gets a preview URL for internal sign-off before it goes live.
The hypothesis-to-data loop shrinks dramatically when "ship the experiment" is a one-click action.
Worth 20 minutes to walk through how other growth teams are using this?
