Here's what Mailforge should do to generate more qualified meetings every month.

Lead generation
Customer Lookalikes
Start by finding more companies that look like your best customers: successful software platforms or agencies that prioritize deliverability and run large-scale email outreach. You can use Leadsforge to find these by identifying similar company profiles based on size, industry, and tech focus. Here is why: Focusing on your top-performing customer segments increases the likelihood of positive responses and maximizes ROI. Leadsforge helps discover high-potential lookalikes fast.
Competitor Followers
A smart approach is to target the followers of your main competitors' LinkedIn company pages. Just share their company page link and website in Leadsforge, and it will gather these for you – these followers are likely your most relevant audience. Here is why: People who already follow competitors are interested in this type of solution, which shortens your sales cycle.
Ideal Customer Profile
For ICP targeting, think in terms of teams (like Sales Leadership, RevOps, Growth), company size (10–1,000 employees), and geography (regions you want to serve or support compliance for, e.g., EU/US/ROW). You can also add industry focus (SaaS, agency, FinTech), and emphasize company types that already invest in deliverability or tech automation. You can further refine and send these attributes into Leadsforge to build your contact lists. Here is why: ICP targeting makes your outbound far more focused, and ensures your emails land in front of people who care about deliverability or multi-client outreach.
Targeting
Segmentation
Segment your outreach by: 1) Industry (SaaS, FinTech, MarTech, Agencies) 2) Company size (e.g., 10–200, 50–500, or 500+ employees) 3) Geography (Tallinn-based, broader EU, or US targets) 4) Role (Head of Growth, VP Sales, RevOps, IT/Compliance) 5) Triggered behaviors (e.g., recent hiring, funding, product launches) Here is why: Effective segmentation helps you personalize campaigns with relevant messaging for each specific group.
Vertical Slices
Target well-defined verticals – SaaS platforms with outbound teams, growth-focused performance agencies, FinTechs investing in compliance, and any company showing high outbound intent. This focus allows repeatable messaging and sequence templates, while still leveraging Salesforge’s dynamic personalization.
Signals
Good triggers to use for timing your outreach include: 1) Funding events (especially Seed to Series A) 2) Recent hiring of outbound/BDR roles 3) Announced product integrations or launches 4) Switches from competitor platforms 5) Conference participation by growth or ops teams Here is why: Real-time signals let you reach companies when they are most open to new infrastructure or improvements, increasing response rates.

Here is why: This setup protects your sender reputation, keeps your emails landing in primary inboxes, and enables easy scaling as you grow.

Case Study
“Salesforge and your other products, and your fast support team were crucial in my first 2 years running a lead generation agency. As a solo founder, generating leads for myself and my clients is challenging. Salesforge helped me create a "lean and mean" pipeline. With a small investment of time and money, I often receive so many leads that I have to pause my campaigns.

Founder, Lean Sales Systems
“I've used many platforms and no one beats Salesforge on email deliverability and ease of use. Every week the team adds new features and the support is excellent!
Sam Momani
CEO, LinkedDNA
"Salesforge's new infrastructure is a game-changer. Big boost for my deliverability and sending capacity. I've tried multiple outreach tools and let me tell you: it's a must-have for everyone that is serious about cold emailing at scale."
Roman Hipp
Co-founder, bettercontact.rocks
"Our CAC is currently $2.86, and we expect it to decrease even further. We’re currently onboarding 4 to 5 new music creators every day. We truly believe in what you’re building at Salesforge. Your guidance on how to scale and reach the right customers has been a game changer for us. Tying your strategy of setting up domains + inboxes + warming up + daily limits with our royalty audit lead magnet has allowed us to grow efficiently, bringing in strong results without excessive effort. It’s made a real difference."
Carlos Palop
CEO, UniteSync
"I only uploaded 40 contacts and I've had 3 positive replies."
