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

Lead generation
Customer Lookalikes
Start by prioritizing your best, most engaged customers—those who consistently benefit from improved email deliverability or have scaled their outbound efforts successfully. Use Leadsforge to identify similar companies—such as digital agencies and SaaS teams—so you can build prospect lists that mirror your ideal clients. Here is why: Targeting lookalikes of your best customers allows you to focus on leads that are most likely to value your solutions, helping you generate reply rates and demos more efficiently.
Competitor Followers
For a powerful outbound strategy, find the followers of competitor LinkedIn pages—specifically those in cold outreach and sales infra spaces. You only need to provide the competitor's company name and website. Leadsforge will take care of the rest and deliver a relevant list. Here is why: Followers of competitor pages are often decision-makers or practitioners actively interested in similar solutions. Share their LinkedIn company page link in Leadsforge and it will find it for you.
Ideal Customer Profile
Define your Ideal Customer Profile clearly: prioritize US and UK digital agencies (5–200 employees), SaaS companies (SMB and mid-market) with RevOps or Growth leaders, and B2B tool providers relying on cold outreach. You can refine targeting by role, company size, and geography as you go—then send these criteria straight to Leadsforge to generate accurate lists. Here is why: Refining by teams, size, and location ensures your campaigns target those most likely to be interested and able to benefit from robust outbound infrastructure.
Targeting
Segmentation
Segment your outreach by industry (SaaS, agencies, martech, B2B eCommerce), company size (micro, SMB, mid-market), and the key job roles (Head of Growth, Head of Sales, Agency Owner). Consider targeting companies showing tech signals—such as those using Lemlist, HubSpot, or relying on cheap reseller mailboxes—and use deliverability pain as a conversation starter. Here is why: Segmentation improves relevance. When you customize your approach to industry, size, and ICP fit, your message resonates more strongly, yielding better engagement from prospects.
Vertical Slices
Break your campaigns into vertical slices: 1) SaaS (developer tools, martech, B2B) 2) Agencies (marketing, lead gen, creative) 3) eCommerce platforms with B2B sales functions 4) Fast-growing teams (hiring, launching new products) Here is why: Focusing on these slices enables you to craft highly relevant messaging and outreach offers, making it clear why your product solves their specific pain points.
Signals
Use timely triggers to prioritize prospects: 1) Recent hiring or funding (signal for scaling needs) 2) Product launches or event participation 3) Changes in tech stack or new domain registrations 4) Engaging with competitor or industry content Here is why: Acting on real-time signals helps you reach out when prospects are most likely to need your solutions, driving higher response and booking rates.

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
