Start with your best current customers. If you’re new or don’t have many, think of your ideal buyer profile: what size company, what roles, and which industries benefit most from what you solve. Leadsforge makes this easy: simply provide details of your top customers—or an imagined ‘dream customer’—and Leadsforge will help you uncover similar companies and contacts to target. Here is why: Starting with your best or ideal customers increases your chances of getting replies that turn into real business, because they’re already a proven fit for your offer.

If your competitors have company pages with active followers, you can target these engaged prospects too. Share their LinkedIn company page link in Leadsforge and it will find the people who follow that page for you. Here is why: People who follow your competitors are likely interested in solutions like yours and may be looking for better alternatives.

Segment your outreach using a smart structure: 1) Industry (choose your top 2–3 most relevant sectors first) 2) Company size (employee range, e.g. 50–1,000 employees) 3) Location (start with regions you can serve best) 4) ICP fit (the right job titles or decision-makers)

After your core outreach, you can branch into specialized verticals for quick wins. For example, focus on tech scaleups, fintech, or agencies if your product is a fit—each group has different pain points and budgets. Adjust your messaging for each vertical.
