SalesLobe: B2B content with Clyde, voice first.

Since 5 October 2026, Clyde has made the Instagram of SalesLobe and the LinkedIn of its founder, Paul den Hartogh. Every post in SalesLobe's own voice and house style, approved in the app and then published at the scheduled time.

One topic, two voices.

On 23 October Paul explained on LinkedIn why "not right now" is not a no. Four days later the same idea went out as a carousel on the Instagram of SalesLobe. On LinkedIn Paul speaks himself, in the first person and with a story from his own work. On Instagram the brand speaks: shorter, on slides and with hashtags.

When I was cold calling, "not right now" was one of the best answers I could get.

It wasn't a no. It was a door someone left open.

In email it's the same. "Not right now" and "not interested" look alike in a busy inbox, and they need completely different follow-ups. One is a nurture. The other is: stop, remove, move on.

Mix them up and you either lose a deal that was coming, or keep emailing someone who asked you not to.

The post is shortened here.

First slide of SalesLobe's Instagram carousel: Not right now is not not interested.

"Not right now" ≠ "not interested"

One is a door left open. The other is a clear stop. Treat them the same and it costs you either way.

Save this for your next inbox session.

The carousel, slide by slide.

One thought per slide, from the difference between "later" and "no" to what it costs when you mix them up. The last slide says what SalesLobe does.

Slide 1: Not right now is not not interested. In a busy inbox they look the same.

Slide 2: One means: ask me later. The other means: stop.

Slide 3: Mix them up and it costs you.

Slide 4: So give later a real date.

Slide 5: Now do that across every client inbox.

Slide 6: SalesLobe sorts every reply and drafts the answer.

Voice first, then content.

Before the first content month we captured the voice of SalesLobe. Paul got three real posts from his first week, each in two or three versions that differ on one point, and six choices that come back in every post. Only then did the content month start.

The opening of the same LinkedIn post in three tones. The message is the same, only the tone differs.

Version A · tight and businesslike

Most AI reply tools give you one switch. On or off.

Version B · tight but personal · chosen

I've sold phones in a shop, made cold calls, sold software, and today I run email outbound for clients.

Version C · loose and short

"Can AI answer our cold email replies?" Yes. In seconds.

Real voice round for SalesLobe, September 2026. For all three posts Paul chose version B.

Six choices by Paul.

They apply to every post written since, on both channels.

How a post goes live.

The same work as for skincare, with a different voice: in English, for businesses, and on LinkedIn with the founder as the sender.

  1. Clyde makes the draft

    In the voice and house style of SalesLobe, from what Clyde remembers about the brand.

  2. Approval in the app

    Every draft stays in the app until it is approved. Editing or skipping it is possible too.

  3. Published at the scheduled time

    Then the app publishes the post on Instagram or LinkedIn, at the time from the calendar.
