FAQ

WHO WE ARE, WHAT WE DO.

1. What exactly does Hail Mary do?

We secure warm intros and discreet meetings using insider leverage. You tell us who you need. We activate operators who have proximity, context, or credibility with that account. If they can make the intro happen, they will. Incentives make strangers useful.

2. Are the targets real people or just theater?

Yes. Titles and companies are real and accurate. Names are withheld until an operator confirms a viable intro path. This isn’t a role-play forum. It’s a list of accounts people actually want and need access to.

3. Why not just use LinkedIn or other sales tools?

You should. Use everything you’ve got. We’re not here to replace your stack. We exist for the moment your stack stops working and you’re desperate.

4. What counts as a successful intro or meeting?

A successful intro is one that gets a response and opens an actual conversation, not a dead drop into someone’s inbox. A successful meeting is one that lands on the calendar and actually takes place. Nothing else qualifies.

5. Who actually makes these intros?

Two kinds of operators:

(1) People with real access. Colleagues, ex-teammates, investors, old roommates, etc. Anyone close enough to get a message taken seriously.

(2) People who are simply better at opening doors than you. Elite outbound operators, agency killers, freelance BDRs, and other professionals who don’t know your target personally but can break in cleanly and credibly.

Hail Mary combines both sides of the market: Network + Skill.

Access when it exists. Precision when it doesn’t.

6. Who are you people?

We’re former sales operators who’ve eaten the same shit you’re eating now. We’ve chased ghosts. We’ve burned through every sequence known to mankind. We’ve believed every “try this” post from people who haven’t sold a damn thing in years. Eventually we realized the only thing that actually moves deals is access, and most people don’t have it.

So we built the thing we wished existed: a quiet backchannel where the right intro from the right person actually lands.

No theory. No fluff. Just operators, incentives, and leverage.

7. How do you choose which targets appear on The Hit List?

Most requests never reach the public Hit List. Preferred Operators get first pass. The rest surface here when we need additional coverage or new angles.

8. Do I need a relationship with the target to get paid?

It depends on the request type. Some Hail Marys require a warm intro. Others accept anyone who can open the door. If your path matches the request, you get paid.

9. What happens after I submit a lead or intro?

You submit the target. Operators review it. If someone has real influence, they’ll step in. Once an insider agrees to make the intro, we validate the details with you and prepare the delivery and payment details. When the intro or meeting happens, the job is considered complete. If it doesn’t work for whatever reason, you owe nothing. You only pay if it works.

10. How long does it take?

Some land in hours, some take days, some never land. This is a Hail Mary after all, and not a guarantee. Outcome depends on relationships, timing, operator availability, and some luck.

11. Can I become an operator?

Maybe. Operators aren’t hired, they’re useful. If you can open doors, start with The Hit List. If you want to be considered for deeper work, email operators@hailmary.xyz with a short note on what kinds of accounts you actually have pull with.
