Ray

ExploreReal potential, but key assumptions still need validation.

Ray is a high-potential, niche-focused lead generation tool that leverages specific LinkedIn triggers to solve the 'lumpy' revenue problem for corporate caterers.

The idea

A lead-gen tool for corporate catering companies that monitors LinkedIn for 'office anniversary' or 'new hire' announcements in their local area. It automatically drafts a personalized outreach email for the caterer to offer a celebratory lunch package. You can prove the value by running the outreach for them as a pilot.

Why this could work

Extremely clear ROI—one order pays for the tool.
Specific, high-intent triggers (anniversaries/hires) vs. generic lead lists.
Low friction 'pilot' model proves value before asking for money.

Watch out for

High platform risk regarding LinkedIn scraping and data access.
Low barrier to entry for competitors using similar AI drafting.
Sales to local small businesses can be time-intensive (high CAC).

Do next

Select one local metro area.
Manually find 10 'New Hire' announcements at local companies.
Offer these 10 leads to a local caterer for free to see if they convert into a trial.
