Start by focusing on companies that most resemble your best customers or your ideal targets. Leadsforge helps you quickly identify businesses that fit the characteristics of your top-performing clients—think founders, heads of sales, or RevOps leaders at SaaS, martech, or fintech companies with 10–200 employees. Here is why Lookalike targeting helps you replicate past success, making every outreach more likely to convert. By starting with warm, proven buyer types, your first campaigns gain traction and produce data to refine your next move.

Grow your outreach list by seeking out followers of competitor company pages on LinkedIn. You only need to submit the competitor's company name and website to Leadsforge and it will handle the rest, finding their audience for you. Here is why This approach allows you to directly reach individuals already interested in products or services similar to yours, increasing your response rates with minimal extra research. Share their LinkedIn company page link in Leadsforge and it will find it for you.

Segment your outreach using industry (SaaS, Martech, Fintech), company size (10–50, 51–200, 200–1000 employees), geography (e.g., North America, EMEA), and role (e.g., Head of Sales, SDR Manager, Founder). Here is why Strategic segmentation allows tailored messaging, improving reply rates and ensuring you speak to the right people about the right challenges for their business size or stage.

Experiment with vertical slices like SaaS, martech, fintech, or agencies. Each segment will respond best to messaging that uses examples, results, or hooks relevant to their space. Here is why This approach helps test which markets are quickest to respond, so you can double down on the highest-performing verticals.
