A proactive GTM agent should watch for signals that can trigger a concrete next step, not just collect interesting noise.

Direct answer
Start with signals that lead to a specific action:
- job changes in target accounts
- funding or hiring spikes
- new product launches
- open pipeline records with stale or missing data
- expansion or champion-risk signals inside existing customers
The filter that matters
The signal is only useful if it changes what the workflow does next. Good signals route into:
- enrichment
- account scoring
- research generation
- CRM task creation
- outbound or success follow-up after review
Bad signals create dashboards people glance at once and ignore.
Current pattern
Recent GTM workflow discussion keeps coming back to the same operating model: daily monitored signals, then a narrow downstream action. That is the connective tissue between "proactive agents" as a demo and proactive agents as a real GTM system.
