The Bootstrapped $50/Month Outbound Tech Stack
You do not need to spend $1,000/month on enterprise sales software when launching a startup. Here is the minimal stack used by high-velocity founders:
1. Two secondary domains on Cloudflare ($18/yr). 2. Google Workspace or custom SMTP ($12/mo). 3. Olonyn Workspace ($17/mo) for unlimited scraping, list cleaning, and email automation. Total cost: under $40/month.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should founders do outbound themselves?
Yes. Until you achieve clear product-market fit and 15-20 paying customers, founders should personally write copy and take discovery calls to understand objections.
