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

Lead generation
Customer Lookalikes
The best place to start is by targeting companies that closely resemble your ideal customer – those who will benefit most from AI-powered user engagement and measurable revenue lift. Here is why: When you target businesses that match your best users (mobile gaming studios, fintech apps, consumer marketplaces, B2B SaaS with high retention focus), your outreach will resonate better and book more demos. With Leadsforge, you can easily build lookalike audiences — just upload details about your best clients or your vision of an ideal customer, and Leadsforge will find matching prospects for you.
Competitor Followers
Going after your competitors' audience can be a smart move to find engaged prospects. Here is why: People following competitor pages are likely already interested in solutions like yours and may be open to enhanced AI retention automation. All you need to do is provide Leadsforge with the LinkedIn company page link of your competitor or similar companies—just share their LinkedIn page link (and optionally website) in Leadsforge and it will handle the rest for you.
Ideal Customer Profile
Refine your targeting by specifying titles (Head of Growth, Lifecycle, CRM, Product Leads), team sizes (50–500 employees for best traction), industries (mobile gaming, fintech, marketplaces, B2B SaaS) and geographies you want to focus on. Here is why: The tighter your ICP (Ideal Customer Profile), the more relevant and effective your outreach. You can keep refining these criteria inside Leadsforge to surface the most accurate and high-potential leads for your campaigns.
Targeting
Segmentation
Segment your lists by industry, company size, and growth signals. Here is why: Consider building separate lists for 1) mobile gaming studios with high churn, 2) consumer apps/marketplaces with strong LTV goals, and 3) fintech/subscription apps focused on revenue & compliance. This way, messaging can be hyper-relevant to the problems each group cares about.
Vertical Slices
Some actionable vertical slices to consider for initial outreach are: 1) Mobile Gaming Studios (focus: day-1/7 retention) 2) Consumer Apps & Marketplaces (focus: cart recovery, user care at scale) 3) Fintech / Subscription Apps (focus: churn, regulatory guardrails) Here is why: Customizing your approach to each vertical helps set up better conversations and pilot opportunities, aligning your value to what matters most for each segment.
Signals
Smart triggers to prioritize for outreach are: 1) Recent funding (Seed–Series A) 2) New growth/retention leadership hires 3) App store ranking changes or new major release 4) Public churn spikes or social complaints 5) Job postings for relevant roles Here is why: Acting on these signals increases your chance of contacting companies when they are ready to invest in improvement, increasing your conversion from cold email to booked meeting.

Possible combinations
For your sending infrastructure, start with Mailforge for dependable, reputation-safe cold outreach, and add Primeforge if you want to send from Google or Outlook mailboxes for even better inbox placement. Here is why: This setup gives you strong deliverability, mailbox warming, and domain management without technical headaches. If you later scale to high volumes or need dedicated IPs and custom branding, Infraforge becomes valuable — but for now, Mailforge and optionally Primeforge will cover all needs.

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.
Vytas Mikulenas
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."
