Automated Demandbase Intent Account Handoff

Every morning, WebRun signs into Demandbase, finds accounts on your target list showing new intent or a jump in engagement since yesterday, drafts a short outreach email in Gmail for each account owner to review, and posts the ranked handoff list to your sales channel in Slack.

In short

How do I follow up with accounts showing buying intent?

WebRun checks Demandbase each morning for target accounts whose intent or engagement rose overnight, capturing the topics behind the lift and the assigned owner. It drafts a short outreach email per account in Gmail, leaves it unsent for the owner, and posts the ranked handoff list to Slack.

  • Surging accounts reach an owner the same morning rather than at the weekly review
  • Reps open a written draft instead of a blank compose window
  • Every handoff names one owner, so no account is left to chance

Questions, answered

Will it email prospects on its own?

No. Every outreach message is saved as an unsent Gmail draft for the account owner to read, edit, and send. WebRun never emails a prospect by itself.

Does it change anything in Demandbase?

No. WebRun reads your target account list and engagement signals. It never edits an account, changes a list, or updates a score.

How does it decide which accounts count as surging?

By comparing each target account's intent and engagement with yesterday and flagging accounts whose lift passes the threshold you set, so ordinary traffic stays off the list.

Put this on autopilot.
