Pods · Sales
An outsourced sales team for French companies. People, tools and playbooks included.
GrowAxis gives French companies an outsourced sales team, run as a pod from Cairo: SDRs who research your accounts, reach them in French and English and book meetings for your sellers, with a pod lead and the sales stack set up. Cairo is one hour ahead of Paris for most of the year, so the working day overlaps by about seven hours. In France, B2B email needs no prior consent when it concerns the person’s work and they can object easily.
01Who it’s for
Built for founders who…
…need meetings with the right accounts every week
…can’t hire and train SDRs fast enough
…want the outreach tools set up properly, not bought one by one
02What’s included
What comes with a sales pod
- 01
SDRs
Account research, outreach and calls in French and English, booking meetings into your sellers’ calendars.
- 02
A pod lead
Plans the week, reviews every sequence and call list, and reports to you.
- 03
Your CRM, set up
HubSpot, Zoho, Salesforce or Pipedrive, with the stages and fields a forecast needs.
- 04
Sending set-up
Separate sending domains and inboxes, authenticated and warmed, so outreach stays off your main domain.

Data and research
Account and contact lists built to your customer profile, checked before anyone is contacted.
- 06
Playbooks and reports
Messages, call scripts and objection notes, and a weekly report on replies, meetings and pipeline.

03Rules
Outreach in France: the rules and the hours

- Calls
- From 11 August 2026 consumers may be called only with prior consent (Law 2025-594, article 13); the rule is written for consumers. The pod calls business lines and keeps a suppression list.
- Channels
- LinkedIn’s ad reach is 71.2% of adults in France (DataReportal, 2026).
- Hours
- Cairo is one hour ahead of Paris for most of the year, so the working day overlaps by about seven hours.
- Languages
- French and English
