Email [team@getaob.com](mailto:team@getaob.com). ## What The GTM Factory does The GTM Factory is an independent GTM engineering boutique run by founder Willy Hernandez, a former quota-carrying seller who learned to code in 2023. It builds systems that find, enrich and reach buyers: signal detection that scores hiring, funding, new-tool and job-change signals and routes them to reps, waterfall enrichment across 15+ providers written back to the CRM, CRM agents that answer pipeline questions in plain English, email and LinkedIn outbound, ad audiences matched from CRM data, and MCP servers that let a team build campaigns from Claude. - Signal detection and routing to CRM and Slack - Waterfall enrichment across 15+ providers - CRM automation and AI agents - Multichannel email and LinkedIn outbound - Matched ad audiences for Meta, LinkedIn and Google - MCP servers and internal tools the team runs itself - Fractional GTM engineer while a hire is found ## Who The GTM Factory fits Its site states the best fit plainly: B2B teams already running HubSpot, Salesforce, Attio or Clarify, with outbound in motion and no GTM engineer in the seat. Much of its pitch targets companies in the middle of hiring a GTM engineer, where it runs the function during the roughly 90-day search and hands the system to the new hire. Logos on the site include AssetWatch, Daylit, Polygraf AI, SpecSync, The Regis Company and eSmart Systems, and its examples span fintech, L&D software, industrial IoT and utility tech. - Its outreach policy says The GTM Factory, LLC is a one-person company in California. - Its site lists partner status with Clay, ZoomInfo, Apollo, Anthropic, Attio and Clarify, and says Hernandez is a Clay Bootcamp teaching assistant with 11 years in B2B sales. - Its site says it has shipped 20+ systems from 2024 to 2026 and integrated 25+ data sources. - Its FAQ says it takes one or two new builds a quarter. ## How The GTM Factory works Its process section lays out three phases. Strategy takes one to two weeks: working out the ICP from won, lost and untouched deals, picking channels and writing an offer, ending in a build plan. Build takes two to four weeks per system, shipped end to end and run on real data before scaling. Run covers sequenced outbound, reply routing and monthly iteration. Every enrichment run pilots on zero rows first to log real cost, then calls providers cheapest first. Identity matching uses first and last name together, emails get two-stage verification, and each run ships with a ledger of rows in, rows resolved and cost per validated result. Provider credits are billed to the client's own accounts at cost, and every system comes with video walkthroughs and runbooks. The GTM Factory is run by Willy Hernandez, who spent 11 years in B2B sales before learning to code in 2023. Its outreach policy describes it as a one-person company in California. ## Published results and clients These are The GTM Factory's own claims from its website. We have not verified them independently. - Its site says one fintech client had 6 buying signals running in production in HubSpot and Slack two weeks after the SOW was signed. - Its site says one enrichment run took 7,255 companies for an L&D software company to 96.7% coverage, written back to HubSpot. - Its site says a matched audience build sent 5,537 CRM records to Meta and LinkedIn, with 2,600 to 3,100 matched (47 to 56%). - Its site quotes Tyler Patrick, GTM Engineer at AssetWatch, and Izzy Kim, Head of Cohorts at Clay. ## Engagement and pricing Pricing is published. Projects start at $6K and ship one scoped project end to end. Quarterly retainers are $25K and cover as many projects as can be shipped in 90 days. Provider credits are billed to the client's own accounts at cost. It offers a free audit on a 100-row sample of a buyer's list, and says it can start the same week once scope is agreed. ## How The GTM Factory compares Clay agencies range from outbound shops that use Clay for list building to GTM engineering firms that build Clay into a full revenue system with the CRM, sequencer, and automation layer. Clay partner tier, how tables are documented for handoff, and credit efficiency are the useful things to compare. This is a one-person shop that takes one or two builds a quarter, so confirm availability and what happens if Hernandez is out mid-project. The upside is direct access to the person doing the build. Ask to see the run ledger from a past enrichment job and the handoff docs from a finished system, since the site says both ship with every engagement. Use the free 100-row sample audit to test data quality on your own list before paying, and check that your CRM is one of the four it names. ## The GTM Factory vs. OneGTM | | The GTM Factory | OneGTM | | --- | --- | --- | | Type | Clay agency | Founder-led GTM engineering practice | | Focus | Clay-certified agency building outbound workflows, enrichment waterfalls, and AI agents for pipeline. | Outbound, signals, enrichment, RevOps, and AI systems built in the client's own accounts | | Pricing | Pricing is published. | Scoped on a call | OneGTM wrote this profile and competes in the same market, so weigh the comparison with that in mind.
