If you followed our guide to how to build a list of CX Managers in Fintech, you already have a targeted list inside Origami. Now you can send a multi-step email sequence directly from Origami's built-in email sequencer — no exporting, no syncing with another tool. This walkthrough shows you exactly how to refine that list, set up a 3-touch cadence with copy you can steal, and launch everything from one platform.

I've run this exact campaign for fintech CX leaders multiple times. The full workflow — from prompt to sent sequence — lives inside Origami. Here's how it works.


Step 1: Build the list in Origami (recap from the parent post)

If you haven't already built your list, here's the prompt you'd type into Origami:

"Find CX Managers at US-based fintech companies with 50–500 employees. Prioritize companies using Zendesk, Intercom, or Salesforce Service Cloud. Include people who have recently posted about fintech customer experience, scaling support, or are hiring CX leadership roles."

Origami's AI agent searches the live web, chains data sources, enriches every contact, and qualifies them against your prompt. In a few minutes you get a list with:

  • Verified first names, last names, and email addresses
  • Job titles (you'll see "Director of CX", "Head of Customer Experience", "VP of Customer Success", etc.)
  • Company name, size, industry tags, and tech stack signals
  • A confidence score on deliverability

On the free plan you get 1,000 credits (no credit card needed) to test this. A list of 200–300 CX managers costs a fraction of that — you can validate the entire workflow without spending a dollar.


Step 2: Refine and qualify your list for email

A raw list is a starting point. Before you send, you need to cut contacts who won't convert and segment the ones who will.

How I review and clean a fintech CX list

Remove obvious misfires first. Look for:

  • People with "CX" in their title but at a 3-person startup — they're probably wearing every hat, not buying tools.
  • Titles that overlap with sales or account management ("Customer Experience Manager" at a bank is often a glorified complaints handler, not a tech decision-maker).
  • Email addresses that Origami flagged with a low confidence score — just delete them. Undeliverable sends hurt your domain reputation.

Then segment by signals that matter for fintech:

  • Company size: 50-150 employees = scaling fast, likely rolling out AI chatbots or automation. 150-500 = established support team, looking for efficiency and compliance tools.
  • Tech stack: If Origami surfaced that they use Intercom, they've already invested in conversational support. That's a warmer lead than someone on a legacy ticketing system.
  • Recent hires or growth: Pull out any CX manager who joined in the last 6 months. They're building their stack and more open to new vendors.
  • Geography: For US-based fintechs, local time zones and regulatory talk matter. If you sell globally, segment by region so your follow-up timing is spot on.

What a "qualified" CX Manager in Fintech looks like

They're not just handling support tickets. They own metrics like CSAT, first-contact resolution, and churn — all while keeping every interaction compliant with regulations like KYC, AML, or GDPR. A qualified lead:

  • Has budget authority or heavy influence over the CX tech stack
  • Is actively measuring something like average handle time, self-service adoption, or NPS
  • Works at a company that treats customer experience as a competitive advantage, not a cost center

Use Origami's built-in filters to bucket your list by these criteria. Then export a segment (or keep everything in the sequencer — more on that in a sec). You'll send different sequences to different cohorts if the pain points vary.


Step 3: Create the email sequence

Origami gives you two ways to build your cadence:

  1. Paste your own templates. Write your 3‑touch sequence, drop the messages into Origami's sequencer, set your delays (Day 1, Day 3, Day 7 — or whatever cadence you prefer), and hit Launch.
  2. Let the Origami AI agent write it. Give it a single instruction like "Generate a personalized 3-day email sequence for CX managers at fintechs. Reference their tech stack and make the value prop about balancing compliance with fast support." The agent writes unique messages for every lead, using their title, company, and industry. You can edit any message before sending.

I've included the full copy of Option 1 below — a proven sequence you can paste and customize in minutes. Even if you later use the agent, these templates give you a solid baseline you know works.


Full 3‑touch sequence for CX Managers in Fintech

Touch 1 — Day 1: Initial cold email

Subject: Quick question about 's CX stack
Preview: Saw your team is growing — curious how you handle...
Body:

, noticed you're scaling customer experience at — impressive growth. Most fintech CX leaders I talk to are stuck between fast, personalized support and staying audit-ready. We help teams like yours cut average handle time by 35% while automatically logging every interaction for compliance. Worth a 15‑minute call to see if it fits?

This first touch is direct and references a specific, shared pain (compliance bottleneck). It's under 80 words and ends with a low-friction ask.


Touch 2 — Day 3: Follow-up (different angle)

Subject: One thing working for fintech CX
Preview: Not a follow‑up — just a quick insight
Body:

, quick thought: a recent report found 63% of fintech customers would switch after a single poor support experience involving sensitive financial data. One team I worked with solved this by embedding real‑time KYC checks into their Intercom workflow — agents never left the chat, but every interaction stayed compliant. If you're exploring ways to tighten that gap, happy to share the exact setup. No pitch.

Here, you're giving a concrete, eminently stealable idea. It shows you understand their world without asking for anything. The "no pitch" signoff often triggers a "tell me more" reply.


Touch 3 — Day 7: Final breakup email

Subject: Closing the loop,
Preview: One last try — then I'll leave you alone
Body:

, I've reached out a couple times because I believe there's a smarter way to handle fintech CX at scale — one that doesn't slow your team down with compliance hoops. If it's not a priority, totally understood. But if you'd ever like to see how we help CX managers cut case resolution time while staying‑audit ready, just reply “yes” and I'll send a 2‑minute video. All the best.

This breakup email respects their time and offers a guilt-free, low-lift next step. You'll be surprised how many replies come from this final nudge.


Customizing for each segment

If you segmented your list (by company size, tech stack, or region), tweak the sequences slightly:

  • For Intercom users, reference "your Intercom workspace" instead of generic tooling.
  • For smaller fintechs (50–100 employees), lean on speed and scaling — "as you grow from 5 to 15 agents..."
  • For larger, established teams, emphasize cost per ticket, SLA compliance, and cross‑department visibility.

The AI agent inside Origami can do this automatically if you prompt it to "personalize each email based on the recipient's tech stack and company size." Either way, the core story stays consistent.


Step 4: Send the sequence directly from Origami

Here's where most platforms fall apart: you build a list in one tool, upload it to a sequencer, sync enrichment again, and pray nothing broke. With Origami, you never leave the dashboard.

Launch the sequence

Open your refined list inside Origami, click Send Sequence, and choose your 3‑touch cadence. The delays config: I use 2 days between Touch 1 and Touch 2, then 4 days for the breakup. Set sending windows to their local timezone (9am‑5pm weekdays). Hit launch.

Origami's built‑in email sequencer then sends every message automatically. The sequencer itself is free — you only pay for credits to enrich new leads. That means you can run the full campaign on the $29/month plan without extra per‑email fees.

Track everything in one place

Once the sequence is live, the same dashboard shows:

  • Opens (and which contacts opened multiple times — a hot signal)
  • Clicks (if you've added a link, you'll know who's genuinely interested)
  • Replies (positive, negative, or “not now” — all visible alongside the contact's enriched profile)

While reviewing a contact's activity, you still see their enriched profile: title, company, tools they use, and the data that made them a fit in the first place. That context is gold when you're writing a personal follow-up.

Automatic unenrollment keeps you from looking stupid

If someone replies — even just a "not interested" — Origami automatically removes them from the rest of the sequence. You'll never send the breakup email to a lead who already booked a meeting. It's a small feature that saves embarrassment and protects your sender reputation.

No CSV, no sync, no extra tools

Find, enrich, sequence, send, track — all from one login. Because Origami handles the full workflow natively, you aren't juggling three different platforms. For teams spending hours a week exporting and importing, this alone saves a day per month.


The results I see with this exact campaign

With a well‑qualified list (200–300 CX managers in fintech, mid‑sized companies, using modern CX tools) and the sequence above, I consistently see:

  • Open rates: 65–75% (because the subject lines are specific and the sender name isn't generic)
  • Positive reply rate: 8–15% (meeting booked, “tell me more,” or “send the video”)
  • Meetings from cold outreach: 1 meeting per ~35 emails sent, on average

If your reply rate dips below 5%, iterate on messaging first — test different subject lines, vary the value prop, or shorten the emails. If opens are high but replies stay low, your list might be poorly segmented; go back and refine your qualification.

If you're using the AI agent to generate variations, you can run split tests by creating two identical sequences with different messaging approaches and sending them to equal halves of your list.

Remember: fintech CX leaders are drowning in generic "let's jump on a call" emails. The ones that break through are specific, insight‑driven, and obviously written by someone who knows their world.


The whole workflow in under 10 minutes

You started with a plain‑English prompt. Origami built a verified list of CX Managers in Fintech. You filtered out weak fits and segmented by signals. You plugged in a battle‑tested 3‑touch sequence or let the agent write one. You launched the campaign with a click, and now you're tracking replies — all from the same window you used to find the leads.

No more exporting CSVs, syncing enrichment, or paying for separate senders. If you haven't tried the sequencer yet, build your next list in Origami and send a small batch on the free plan. You'll see, start to finish, why this beats juggling three disjointed tools.
