Hey everyone! 🌎 Location: Tunisia (UTC+1) 👩🏻‍🎨 Role: GTM Engineer, open to remote roles and small projects 🔍 Background: Software engineering fresh graduate. I did a 6-month internship where I designed and built a GTM and content automation platform using FastAPI (Python). Recently I started to build GTM workflows with n8n, Clay, HubSpot and Claude. My main project is a “Personal GTM Engine” that finds, enriches and scores leads end to end. Clay Goals: I’m a beginner, I’ve used Clay for enrichment inside my own engine, and now I want to get properly good at waterfalls, AI columns and building tables for real clients. 🔥 Burning question: For people who learned Clay on the free plan, how did you practice without burning through all your credits?
