Start your B2B lead list from the tools a website runs

A simple way to build a better B2B lead list: start from the technologies a company's website already runs.

If you sell a Shopify app, your best prospects are Shopify stores. If you offer Stripe consulting, look for sites using Stripe. The fit is usually much tighter than a broad industry or headcount filter.

A few things that help:

  • Pick one technology per list so your message can be specific.
  • Look for a named person, like a founder or admin, instead of a generic inbox.
  • Keep the list small at first, around 100 companies, and learn from the replies.

How do you build your first lists?
