OpenClaw Multi-Agent Setup for Beginners: How to Build and Connect Subagents

OpenClaw is the fastest-growing open-source AI agent in 2026 — and in this tutorial, you'll learn how to set up a full multi-agent system to automate real sales and marketing work. Instead of one overloaded AI agent trying to do everything, this setup uses a main "orchestrator" agent that delegates to specialised sub-agents — one for sales, one for marketing. Cleaner context. Faster execution. Actually scalable. By the end of this video you'll have: → A working multi-agent architecture inside OpenClaw → A new agent created via terminal (no code needed) → Anthropic API connected + model configured → Telegram bot integration for real-time control → A live sales prospecting workflow running via Apollo → A 3-touch email campaign live in Lemlist → A 14-day plan to book 10 meetings using coordinated AI agents This setup works whether you're an agency owner, sales rep, or founder who wants AI doing the prospecting legwork. Also works great alongside: n8n, MCP tools, Apollo, Lemlist, and any Telegram-connected workflow. 📌 Formerly known as Clawdbot / Moltbot.
