The fastest way to find new clients is to target companies that already look like your best customers or your ideal targets — startup founders, CMOs, heads of product at companies in Health, SaaS, Marketplaces, E-commerce, and Fintech. Use Leadsforge to pinpoint and gather these similar contacts so your outreach goes to people most likely to need your services. Here is why: Companies that share key traits with your best clients are the most likely to respond positively and move fast. Leadsforge saves you manual work and gives you a jumpstart.

Another smart move is to focus on the LinkedIn followers of your competitors or similar agencies. These are professionals who already show interest in design and branding services. Simply provide the competitor’s company name or their LinkedIn company page link in Leadsforge, and it will collect and organize the follower data you need.

Start broad, but smart: Suggest three main segments — 1) Founders and CEOs of startups preparing for or expecting funding; 2) CMOs and Heads of Growth at growing companies focused on branding and conversion; 3) Heads of Product at SaaS/marketplace businesses launching new features or major websites. These slices match your best-case scenarios. You can further refine by company size, industry, and region inside Leadsforge. Here is why: Effective segmentation ensures each message lands with the right audience, increasing the odds of a positive reply and smooth pipeline.

Prioritize verticals where you have experience and proof (Health, SaaS, Marketplaces, E-commerce, Fintech). Use logos or micro-case studies in your emails to show social proof and credibility as you reach out to similar verticals via Leadsforge. Here is why: Prospects trust proven expertise in their space, and vertical-specific messaging is much more compelling.
