Before you begin

If you’re looking for a smarter way to spark conversations with target prospects, a one-year work anniversary is a perfect trigger. Here’s why it’s worth building an outbound campaign around it:

  • Timely reason to reach out: A work anniversary gives you a natural, relevant excuse to start a conversation without feeling salesy.
  • Signal of role stability: Hitting a one-year mark signals they're likely staying put and may now have more influence, budget, or buying power.
  • Stand out with real personalization: Most outbound emails are generic; mentioning a personal milestone immediately makes you more memorable.

Now you can do it in Clay in literal minutes using this Claybook.

How it works 

  • Import contacts that fit your specified criteria using Find People in Clay
  • ChatGPT will automatically verify one work anniversaries using Linked profiles
  • A waterfall enrichment will automatically find work emails of people
  • Contacts and their associated accounts will get sent and ActiveCampaign automation

Step 2:

Import contacts using “Find People”

Next, use Clay’s “Find People” search to import contacts that fit your specified criteria and who you’ll send your one year work anniversary message to. Important: make sure to select a minimum work experience of 1 month and a maximum work anniversary of 12 months to ensure you find people just hit their one year anniversary. 

‍

After you import contacts, the table will automatically enrich contacts with LinkedIn profile data and use ChatGPT to verify work anniversaries

Step 3:

Connect to ActiveCampaign (or other ESP/sequencer) 

Finally, after creating your campaign in ActiveCampaign, connect to ActiveCampaign through Clay’s native integration to create new contact and account objects and send them to your one-year work anniversary outbound campaign.
