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

Lead generation
Customer Lookalikes
The best way to find companies similar to your top customers is to start with your happiest clients or the types of companies you want more of. Leadsforge can help you identify and reach organizations that closely resemble these ideal customers. Here is why: Going after lookalikes ensures your outbound focus is on companies most likely to reply and convert because they already match what works for you. With Leadsforge, simply define your ideal customer profile, and it will uncover similar accounts for you to target.
Competitor Followers
To quickly build a high-value prospect list, target followers of your competitors’ company pages. This helps you connect with people who are already interested in similar products. Here is why: Followers of competitor pages are already primed and relevant for what you offer—they’ve shown interest in your space. Just share their LinkedIn company page and website in Leadsforge, and it can gather the list for you.
Ideal Customer Profile
Start by specifying which roles, team types, and geographies are the best fit. For example, agency owners, Heads of Growth, Revenue Operations leads, and Sales Leaders in SMBs and mid-market companies are a strong ICP for your business. You can refine even further by filtering on company size or region, then send these criteria to Leadsforge to generate a clean, targeted lead list.
Targeting
Segmentation
Group your prospects by: 1) Industry (SaaS, Agency, Fintech, Edtech) 2) Company size (Startups, SMBs, Mid-market) 3) Location (US, UK, EU, Nordics/Baltics) 4) Role (Head of Growth, RevOps, Sales, CTO/Platform Owner) Here is why: Breaking your audience down this way allows you to tailor your outreach to what matters most to each group—leading to better deliverability and more replies.
Vertical Slices
Focus on specific verticals where you see traction, such as SaaS, performance marketing agencies, and innovation-driven SMBs. Here is why: Targeting by vertical means you can use testimonials or case studies relevant to their business, showing you understand their specific needs.
Signals
Monitor triggers like new funding rounds, hiring for growth/sales roles, product launches, press mentions, or changes in email platforms. These moments increase the chance they’ll be open to new outreach solutions. Here is why: Contacting companies when they are in a growth phase or just made an infrastructure switch makes your approach timely and more likely to get a positive response.

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.

“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."
