Reach higher ed leads while the timing is right.
A bought list of universities gives you job titles, not the campuses with money to spend this term. Your agent goes by what a campus just did in public: an award notice with the investigator named, a provost six weeks into the job, an instructional design role opened before a program starts. Describe the institution you sell to, and your agent starts there.

Award notices, campus job posts, comments
One opener, then the reply is yours
Nothing sends without your click
Any institution type, any department
Four things you stop doing yourself.
Who is in the market this week
Your agent watches what campuses publish: an award notice with the investigator named, a provost or CIO appointment, the roles a department opens before a program starts. Each institution comes back with the person who owns that work and what put them on your list.
Only the ones worth your time
Say what a good customer looks like once, in your own sentence, down to the institution type and the department. A campus with nothing open stops reaching your screen, and every one left shows why it made the list.
The first line, already written
Your agent reads the person before it writes, their profile, their department and the announcement that brought them in. Every opener names the real award or the real appointment, in your words, and nothing sends until you approve it.
Sent at a human pace
Messages go out spread through the day, never in a burst. A new sender starts gently and builds up. If anything looks wrong, it stops and tells you.
What a campus publishes before the money moves.
Four things a campus does before the purchase order.
An award just landed
A grant notice names an investigator, a department and money with a clock on it. What that money buys gets decided in the months right after the notice, and your agent brings you the person while the window is open.
A provost or CIO just started
New leadership reviews what the last one signed, and those first months are the only stretch where an incumbent is genuinely up for review. Your agent catches the appointment while that is still true and hands you the person, not the press release.
A department is hiring for the rollout
Nobody posts an instructional designer or an LMS administrator for a program that is not happening. That job post dates the plan months before a database shows the campus changed anything.
They answered under a competitor
A registrar or an academic technology director arguing in the comments under a competitor's post is shopping today, in public. Your agent reads the thread and brings you each person with the line they wrote.
Prefer to work in Claude?
BeReach runs as a connector inside Claude and Claude Cowork. Ask in plain language: it finds the people, tells you which ones are worth your time, and writes the first line. Nothing sends until you say so. See the Claude connector.
Higher ed outreach, answered plainly.
How does BeReach find higher-ed decision-makers?
Your agent reads what campuses publish: an award notice with the investigator on it, a provost or CIO appointment, the roles a department opens before a program starts. Each institution comes back with the person who owns that work and the reason they are on your list.
What tells you an institution is ready to buy?
Money that just landed, a leader in their first months, or a hire that only makes sense if a rollout is coming. Your agent grades each campus against the customer you described, so the ones with nothing open stay off your screen.
Why are these institutions missing from a static database?
A bought list gives you a title and refreshes on its own schedule, so it cannot tell you which department had an award land last week. That is the fact that decides whether writing today is worth anything.
Does BeReach only use public data?
Yes. Award notices, campus announcements, job posts and public profiles, all on the open web, and nothing bought from a list broker.
Can I target by institution type, department, or program?
Yes, in a sentence. Ask for community colleges that won a workforce grant and are hiring in continuing education, and that is what comes back.
Can BeReach write the first message to a dean?
Yes, and that is the difference from a list. Your agent reads the person first, their profile, their department and the announcement that brought them in, then drafts an opener that names the actual award or the actual program.
What happens after I approve one?
Your message goes out from your own LinkedIn account, spread through the day rather than in a burst, and a new account starts small and works up. Replies land in your own LinkedIn inbox, where you answer and book the call yourself.

LinkedIn ABM: $10 in pipeline per dollar spent (how to get there)
Companies doing LinkedIn ABM well generate $10+ in pipeline per dollar spent and 44% higher ROAS than Google. But most ABM on LinkedIn fails because teams treat it like targeted cold outreach. Here's what the data shows actually works.

LinkedIn InMail vs connection request: the data-backed answer
An InMail credit costs about $2.40 inside a Sales Navigator Core seat billed monthly, or about $1.80 on annual billing, and gets a 6.38% reply rate. Connection requests are free and reply higher. The numbers settle this debate - but the answer isn't always the same.
