If you source your leads via Apify🙋

Hey HighLevels! 👋

Wanted to share smth I spent a good amount of hours to tackle, and I hope I'll be able to save some of you that time. I discovered it just a few days ago, and it's about finding your prospects 📝

So, I use Apify to get some leads for my business, and in order to do that I used to just paste in some query (e.g. niche: e-commerce; job title: owner, founder, c-suite; size: 1-10 etc.), run the actor, get the dataset and smile to my ears.

But apparently not all the prospects in that spreadsheet are my ICP. Some are from different countries, some are from different niches. Some are not founders, but "helping founders achieve smth...". Overall, the dataset needs filtering.

How I solved this is I set these filters:

1) has website and email

2) is decision maker

3) is my ICP

and if 1) is pretty straightforward, then 2) and 2) is not as easy. But Claude helped me out here as well - we stated the ICP, and Claude analyzed the info about each prospect against that ICP and pasted each lead into Fits or Rejected tabs.

I advice you to do that as well. I have this big n8n flow which helps me source via Apify, filter, and write the messages, but feel free to use whatever's easier for you - can just use Claude or ChatGPT (just beware it will eat up part of your weekly usage). After you do these filterings, you get about 1/3 of the leads you had from Apify, but those are most likely to be your ICP and benefit from your offer.

Another important thing is to check and verify the emails afterwards, but I'll get to it a bit later and keep you updated. Hope the info in this post saves someone a few hours and emails sent to a completely different niche, country, or prospect 🙏😁
