Talkativ

Pre-launch · a Little Omega experiment

Outbound for founders who sell more than one way.

Talkativ treats each go-to-market hypothesis as a motion, with its own playbook, lead list, sequences and funnel. Run several at once and find out which one converts before you commit to it.

Same founder, three hypotheses. Talkativ keeps them apart so the comparison means something.

The idea

Test go-to-market hypotheses like experiments, not a CRM you feed.

Early on, most founders are not running one sales process. They are selling a service to one kind of buyer, a product to another, and trying a third angle on the side, all out of the same inbox and the same spreadsheet. When something starts working, it is hard to say which of the three it was.

In Talkativ, a motion is one of those hypotheses: an offer, an audience and a way of selling. The playbook, the lead search, the sequences and the funnel all belong to a motion, so every reply and every lost deal is counted against the hypothesis it tested.

Inside a motion

Everything outbound needs, scoped to the hypothesis it serves.

Playbook

A playbook per motion, kept up to date as you learn

Each motion carries its own playbook, structured rather than a document nobody opens. Start from a methodology preset and rewrite it as calls teach you what the buyer actually cares about.

  • Personas, pains and value propositions
  • Objections, with the answers that worked
  • Talk tracks and message templates
  • Qualification criteria and stage exit criteria
  • Presets: MEDDIC, Sandler, SPIN, BANT, B2B, B2C, B2B2C

Leadgen

Lead lists built from the motion's ideal customer

Saved searches come from the motion's ICP. Candidates arrive scored for fit, with the reasons written next to the score, and you clear them in a review queue driven from the keyboard.

  • Saved searches per motion
  • ICP fit score with its reasons
  • Duplicates caught before they reach your list
  • Rejection reasons feed back into the ICP

People and funnel

The people you are working, grouped by motion

Everyone you are talking to sits under the motion they belong to. Each motion has its own stages, a board to move people through them, and the conversion between each stage.

  • People grouped by motion
  • Stages defined per motion
  • Board view and stage-to-stage conversion

Sequences

Multi-channel cadences, with the manual steps queued for you

A sequence mixes email, LinkedIn, calls, SMS and WhatsApp. Steps that can go out on their own do. LinkedIn touches and calls land in a daily task queue, so the human part of outbound has a place to happen.

  • Email, LinkedIn, call, SMS and WhatsApp steps
  • Automatic steps send themselves
  • A daily queue for LinkedIn and calls

Simulations

Rehearse the call before you make it

Practise against an AI persona drawn from the motion's ICP, such as a skeptical CISO. Run a cold call, a discovery call or an objection-handling drill, then read a debrief scored against your playbook.

  • Personas built from the motion's ICP
  • Cold call, discovery and objection-handling scenarios
  • Debrief scored against the playbook

How it works

From a hunch about who will buy to a comparison you can act on.

  1. 1

    Write down the hypothesis

    Create a motion: what you sell, to whom, and how. Pick a methodology preset and adjust the personas, objections and qualification criteria.

  2. 2

    Build the list

    Save searches from the motion's ICP, review the scored candidates from the keyboard, and let your rejection reasons sharpen the ICP.

  3. 3

    Run the outreach

    Put people into a sequence. Automatic steps go out on their own; LinkedIn touches and calls wait in today's queue.

  4. 4

    Practise and compare

    Rehearse the hard calls against an AI persona, then compare motions side by side and put your time where the conversions are.

FAQ

Questions founders ask

What is Talkativ?

Talkativ (spelled without an e) is outbound software for founders who sell several things, or one thing several ways. You set up each go-to-market hypothesis as a motion, and each motion gets its own playbook, lead list, sequences, funnel and analytics. It is made by Little Omega, a French company.

What is a motion?

A motion is one go-to-market hypothesis you are testing: a given offer, sold to a given audience, a given way. Selling a vCISO service, selling a product to SMEs and selling to startups going through a certification are three motions, even if the same founder runs all three.

Who is Talkativ for?

Founders and small teams doing their own outbound while they are still working out what sells to whom. It fits best when you have more than one offer, or more than one audience, and need to know which one to double down on.

How is it different from a CRM?

A CRM stores contacts and deals and waits for you to fill it in. Talkativ starts from the hypothesis: the playbook, the lead search, the outreach and the funnel all belong to a motion, so the question it answers is which way of selling works, not only where each deal stands.

Which channels do sequences cover?

Email, LinkedIn, phone calls, SMS and WhatsApp. Steps that can run on their own send themselves. LinkedIn steps and calls are added to a daily task queue for you to do by hand.

Which sales methodologies can a playbook start from?

MEDDIC, Sandler, SPIN and BANT, plus presets for B2B, B2C and B2B2C selling. A preset is a starting point: you edit the personas, objections, qualification criteria and stage exit criteria to fit the motion.

What are simulations?

Roleplay practice against an AI persona built from the motion's ideal customer profile, for example a skeptical CISO. You can rehearse a cold call, a discovery call or objection handling, then get a debrief scored against the motion's playbook.

Can I use Talkativ today?
