Lead list
A lead list is a list of people who fit your ideal customer, with their name, company, role and contact details.
Each row is one person, not one company. Good lists also hold a reason to contact them now, such as a new job, a funding round or a post they wrote. You build it from LinkedIn, company websites, industry lists and communities.
The list must match your volume. At 100 messages a day you need about 3,000 names a month. Build it from your ideal customer profile, aim at the decision-maker, and keep it in your CRM. Create a B2B lead list for free and check every email before your cold email goes out.
