Found my SDR staring at his screen yesterday like he was watching paint dry.

“What’s the holdup?” I asked.

“Can’t tell if these emails are legit. I want to schedule an interview.”

Look, I already shared the Microsoft Teams hack with you all. But what if they’re a Google Workspace company?

Here’s the Google Chat equivalent that takes literally 5 seconds:

  1. Open Google Chat
  2. Type the prospect’s email in the search bar

If they’re on Google Workspace and their admin hasn’t locked everything down: BINGO. You’ll see their profile, sometimes even more information.

Not there? Either the email’s wrong or they’re living in Microsoft’s world.

My team is now burning through email verification at warp speed instead of playing email roulette with their outreach.

And guess what? Nobody puts this in the fancy sales playbooks.

Just street-credible sales folks finding edges while everyone else is whining about “needing better data sources” or “waiting for IT to approve that new tool.”
