SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Turning an ICP definition into a verified, outreach-ready lead list is slow and error-prone: data sources disagree, emails bounce, and scraping platforms risks account bans. This Skill structures the entire list-building and qualification workflow so every prospect is scored, sourced, and compliant before outreach begins. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Four prospecting branches: SaaS (technographic + funding signals), general B2B (trigger events + firmographics), Local SMB (website-status classification via Google Maps research), and Demand-signal discovery (finding first customers from public pain signals). - Five-phase workflow: ICP definition, candidate discovery at 2-3x target volume, evidence-backed qualification with confidence levels, Hot/Warm/Cold scoring, and lead-sheet output in chat table or CSV. - Compliance guardrails: GDPR, CAN-SPAM, and CASL guidance with source-URL lineage capture, email deliverability validation via Truelist, and strict no-bulk-scraping rules for LinkedIn and Google Maps. - Use Case: A founder asks for 25 mid-market manufacturers in the Midwest who recently hired a CMO; the Skill selects the B2B branch, defines the ICP, recommends Apollo plus LinkedIn Sales Navigator for trigger detection, and ships a scored table with verified contacts and top outreach targets. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to build a list of 25 qualified prospects for your product, describing your target customer, geography, and any buying signals you care about.

Frequently Asked Questions about prospecting

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build a qualified B2B prospect list?▼

Define your ICP first (industry, size, geography, buying signal), then source 2-3x your target count from Apollo or ZoomInfo, cross-verify with LinkedIn or company websites, and score each candidate Hot, Warm, Cold, or Skip. Always validate emails with a tool like Truelist before outreach.

How do I find local businesses without websites?▼

Use browser-assisted Google Maps research for your category and area, then run an exact business-name web search to confirm no standalone site exists. Classify each business as no site, social only, weak site, or has site, and prioritize no-site and social-only businesses as hot prospects.

Apollo vs ZoomInfo vs Clay for prospecting?▼

Apollo is best for broad firmographic and contact discovery, ZoomInfo for enterprise B2B with intent data, and Clay for multi-source waterfall enrichment and custom scoring. The Skill recommends combining two or three sources for cross-verification since individual databases are often stale.

Can I scrape LinkedIn or Google Maps for leads?▼

No. Bulk scraping LinkedIn or Google Maps violates their terms of service and risks permanent account bans. The Skill permits manual browser-assisted research on these platforms and programmatic extraction only from individual prospects' own websites via Firecrawl or Browserbase.

Why validate prospect emails before cold outreach?▼

Bounce rates above 2% damage sender reputation and are hard to recover from. Data from Apollo or ZoomInfo is typically only 60-80% accurate, so running contacts through a validator like Truelist to catch invalid, disposable, and catch-all addresses is non-negotiable.

How do I find my first customers before product-market fit?▼

Use the demand-signal branch: mine public forums, reviews, GitHub issues, and job posts for people explicitly describing the pain you solve. Score prospects on a 0-100 demand-fit rubric requiring a cited public signal, and ship an evidence report with a seven-day manual outreach plan.
