Episode notes
Most of us have run an event, watched the in-person conversations crackle, then sent the same templated follow-up to everyone on the lead list. The energy disappears the moment marketing hits send. That gap is what Dave Schools set out to close when he started Singulate , and it's what he and Mason Cosby get into on this episode of Scrappy ABM . ㅤ Dave breaks down why marketing ops keeps becoming the bottleneck on personalization, why data is now a commodity but messaging is not, and what it actually takes to send hyper-segmented email at scale without sounding like AI. He shares the four channels working for Singulate today, the 15% open-rate bump from a single hook rewrite, and the framework his team uses to keep humans in the loop while AI does the heavy lifting. ㅤ If you're a revenue leader running ABM with a limited budget and a database full of underused signals, this conversation gives you a clearer picture of what to do with what you already have. ㅤ Guest Bio Dave Schools is co-founder and CEO of Singulate, an AI native marketing personalization platform that sits on top of HubSpot or Marketo to activate first-party data into hyper-segmented messaging.
