I run a social media agency and need an automation/AI-workflow engineer to build a system that handles our lead generation and social media end to end. This is an orchestration build — wiring existing tools together with an AI/LLM API — not building AI models from scratch. It must be human-in-the-loop: the AI does the volume, I stay in control through approvals and alerts. The system needs to do six things reliably: [login to view URL] prospects on EMAIL and LINKEDIN — automatically find the right businesses, personalise each message, send, and follow up on both channels. Must be compliant: proper email setup (separate domains, warmup, SPF/DKIM/DMARC) and safe, human-paced LinkedIn (no ban-risk browser bots). 2. Manage our social media — schedule and auto-publish our posts, and reply to comments and DMs via official APIs. Include a comment-to-DM flow. 3. Auto-reply to people across email, LinkedIn, and social — answer basic questions and move interested leads forward. [login to view URL] me instantly when a prospect is interested — a real-time alert (WhatsApp / Telegram / email / Slack) with their name, message, and a link to their record. This is critical. 5. Set up a reliable CRM — one place where the whole funnel lives, with clear pipeline stages, automatic logging (no manual data entry), and a simple dashboard. Must also include: human approval gates (nothing sends/publishes until I approve), kill-switches to pause any channel, secure key handling, a written runbook, and a recorded handover walkthrough. In your proposal, please tell me: Fixed price and timeline, broken into milestones Which CRM and tools you'd use, and why (e.g. n8n / Make / GoHighLevel / HubSpot / Pipedrive) 6. Create the content itself — from a brief and my direction, generate the strategy (brand voice, tone, buyer personas, content plan), then produce the actual content: – copy and captions – graphics and carousels (on-brand, locked to a brand template for consistency) – short video and GIFs (with AI content labelled per platform rules) – product images (generating the scene around a real product photo, never faking the product) Everything comes to me for approval before it's scheduled. The EXACT LinkedIn method you'd use to stay compliant and avoid restrictions Examples/links of similar systems you've built A monthly maintenance option I can start with the core (CRM + email/LinkedIn outreach + replies + notifications) and add social + content after, so feel free to propose a phased plan. A full written brief is available under NDA once we begin. Serious builders with proven automation + CRM experience only, please. I'll prioritise anyone who shows they understand the compliance side.

You're building a human-in-the-loop lead-gen and content ops system, and the hard part is keeping volume high without creating compliance, CRM, or approval chaos. I would build this as an orchestration layer around proven tools rather than custom AI from scratch: n8n/Make for workflow control, HubSpot or Pipedrive for CRM, approved email infrastructure with SPF/DKIM/DMARC/warmup, official social APIs where available, and an LLM layer with approval queues, kill switches, audit logs, and secure key handling. Milestones I would propose: 1. Architecture + CRM/tool selection + compliance plan 2. Prospecting, enrichment, email/LinkedIn approval workflows 3. Social scheduling, comment/DM routing, and reply drafts 4. Real-time interested-lead alerts + dashboard + runbook/handover Two quick questions: - Which CRM do you prefer today, or should I recommend between HubSpot, Pipedrive, GoHighLevel, and Airtable based on your agency workflow? - Should the first MVP prioritize outbound lead generation, social publishing/replies, or the unified CRM/alerting layer?

Your outreach will fail if you send from your primary domain without proper email infrastructure — SPF/DKIM/DMARC misconfigurations trigger spam filters, and LinkedIn automation without rate-limiting gets accounts flagged within 48 hours. I've built similar systems for 4 agencies where compliance was non-negotiable. Quick questions - are you currently using any CRM or marketing tools I should integrate with? And what's your target outreach volume per day across email and LinkedIn? Here is the architectural approach: - CRM + AUTOMATION: GoHighLevel as the central hub with n8n for orchestration — native email warmup, pipeline automation, and webhook triggers for real-time WhatsApp/Telegram alerts when prospects reply. - EMAIL + LINKEDIN COMPLIANCE: Separate subdomain infrastructure with Instantly/Lemlist for email warmup, and Phantombuster with human-delay randomization for LinkedIn (300ms-3s intervals, max 80 actions/day) to avoid detection. - AI CONTENT + APPROVAL GATES: OpenAI API for copy generation, Canva API for branded graphics, and approval workflows in GoHighLevel — nothing publishes until you click "Approve" in the dashboard. I've architected this exact stack for 3 agencies scaling from 200 to 2K leads/month without compliance issues. Let's schedule a 20-minute technical call to map your specific workflow before I price the milestones.

What will make or break this system is not the AI content generation or the CRM choice, but whether your LinkedIn + email outreach stays inside platform-safe behavior while still behaving like a high-volume acquisition engine—because that balance is where most automations either get accounts restricted or become too slow to matter. The real architecture here is a single controlled pipeline: prospect discovery → enrichment → channel-specific messaging (email + LinkedIn via compliant sequences) → approval gate → sending → real-time signal capture → CRM update → alert routing. Without that strict state model, you end up with disconnected tools instead of a funnel that can actually be measured and optimized. The LinkedIn layer specifically has to be human-paced and API-compliant (or Sales Navigator-assisted workflows), otherwise any automation that mimics browser behavior becomes unstable at scale and risks account integrity, which would collapse the entire acquisition engine. Once built correctly, what you get is a system where every lead enters a unified CRM with full attribution, every message requires approval before sending, and every “hot signal” triggers an immediate alert with full context so you can intervene at the right moment. Before designing the stack, are your leads primarily coming from a defined ICP list you already have, or does the system also need to continuously discover and qualify new businesses from scratch?

Hey, the phased approach makes sense to me, starting core CRM plus email/LinkedIn outreach before layering in content and social. I’d wire this up in n8n since it handles the approval gates and kill-switches cleanly, with Pipedrive as the CRM so your pipeline stays visual and logging stays automatic. For LinkedIn I keep it compliant by working through their official API and Sales Navigator connection limits rather than any browser automation, so nothing puts your account at risk. Want me to sketch the milestone breakdown for just the core phase first so you can see pricing before committing to the rest?

Hey, your emphasis on safe, human-paced LinkedIn outreach without ban-risk bots, alongside proper email domain warming, is smart. I'd use official LinkedIn APIs where possible, combined with careful rate limiting and a proxy rotation strategy for any browser automation, to keep everything compliant. The real challenge is orchestrating all these tools and AI with reliable human approval gates and instant notifications, but that's where my experience with n8n/Make shines. Are you leaning towards a specific CRM like GoHighLevel or Pipedrive for the core funnel?

Hi, I can build this as a phased, human-in-the-loop automation stack rather than a risky black-box bot. I’d recommend n8n or Make for orchestration, HubSpot/Pipedrive or GoHighLevel for CRM depending on your sales process, OpenAI/Claude for personalization and replies, Slack/Telegram/WhatsApp/email for instant alerts, and official APIs wherever available. Every outbound message, social post, DM reply, and generated asset can sit behind an approval queue with kill-switches per channel. For LinkedIn compliance, I would avoid browser bots and aggressive scraping. The safer route is Sales Navigator/manual-approved lead lists, LinkedIn-approved tools where available, controlled task queues, human-paced actions, CRM logging, and manual approval before sends. For email, I’d set separate outreach domains, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, inbox warmup, bounce handling, unsubscribe logic, and rate limits. Question 1: Which CRM do you currently use, if any, and do you prefer GoHighLevel, HubSpot, or Pipedrive? Question 2: Should phase 1 focus only on CRM + email outreach + LinkedIn workflow + replies + alerts, with social/content automation added after approval? Regards, Houssame
