Hey there!
Here’s the fourth edition of Workflows Weekly, with a few workflows, tools, and ideas to take into 2026.
Let’s get into it.
1. Featured workflow
For a long time, outbound was manual.
Then came the automation wave, and suddenly everything was sequences, tools, and AI.
In 2026, you need both.
Automated outbound without human effort screams AI.
Manual outbound without systems doesn't scale.
The teams that win combine both.
This is our Outbound Playbook for 2026.
Outbound Playbook 2026
At a high level, it’s built on 4 core pillars:
Email Campaigns
LinkedIn Campaigns
Manual Prospecting
Cold Calling
Outbound doesn’t need more volume. It needs better systems.
That’s what this playbook focuses on.
2. Which AI tool you should look into

3. What GTM resource we found useful
This Cold Email Copywriting Checklist is built for teams who want cold emails to actually start conversations.
The idea is simple.
Your list and persona matter more than clever copy.
This checklist breaks cold email down into clear building blocks:
who you’re targeting and why
what signal you’re using
which channels to activate by tier
how to structure subject lines and first lines
how long the email should be and what it should focus on
Cold Email Copywriting Checklist
If outbound email is part of your 2026 motion, this is a solid checklist to run through before launching or rewriting sequences.
4. AI news of the week
OpenAI is betting big on audio.
They have reorganized multiple teams to rebuild its audio models from the ground up, ahead of an audio-first personal device expected sometime in 2026.
The shift reflects a broader trend across tech.
OpenAI’s upcoming audio models are expected to:
sound more natural and conversational
handle interruptions like real dialogue
speak while you’re talking, instead of waiting for turns
The long-term vision goes beyond better voice assistants. The company is reportedly exploring screenless devices that feel less like tools and more like ambient companions.
As audio gets better, faster, and more natural, interaction moves away from screens and into everyday moments, whether you’re driving, walking, or just thinking out loud.
That’s a wrap for this week.
If something here made you pause or rethink how you work, just reply and let us know.
See you next week.
