B2B Prospect Research & Company Lists

Find the right prospects. Keep the reasoning visible.

I research companies against your target criteria and organize the findings into a reviewable shortlist. Source links, inclusion notes and uncertain fields stay visible so you can assess the list before deciding your next action.

Discuss your project

Start with your task

What you can hand over.

Examples of work we can scope together. The source material and intended result determine the approach.

Target-account shortlists

Research companies by sector, location, size and fit; explain why each record qualifies or needs review.

At handover A qualified shortlist with source links, exclusions and unconfirmed fields.

Business contacts and enrichment

Research relevant roles and appropriately sourced business contact details. Availability and freshness vary; contact data does not grant outreach consent.

At handover Agreed contact fields with source dates and clear verification limits.

Client-authorized research tools

Manual LinkedIn, Apollo or Sales Navigator research where legitimate access and permitted use are confirmed. Subscriptions are not included.

At handover Organized research records; approved segmentation or campaign preparation can be scoped separately.

A useful fit

What the work includes.

For founders, sales teams, and agencies with a defined market to research and a clear use for the resulting list.

  • A structured company or contact list with agreed fields and segmentation.
  • Source references, qualification notes, and a clear status for unresolved information.
  • Duplicate review, field definitions, and a spreadsheet or agreed CRM import file.

Scope boundaries

A researched list does not guarantee meetings, sales, or consent to outreach. Information can change. Sources, permitted access, and verification limits are agreed before research starts.

Inspect the workflow

Self-initiated demonstrations with synthetic data, created to make the process and deliverables inspectable.

A clear starting point

What to include in your brief.

  • Target sectors, geography, company size, and buyer roles.
  • Required fields, exclusions, intended use, and output format.
  • A sample of a suitable prospect, if you have one.

Start with a description. Please don’t send passwords, tokens, private contact lists, or full client datasets through the enquiry form.

From brief to handover

How we can approach it.

  1. Define targeting criteria and useful fields.
  2. Agree a small sample and qualification rules.
  3. Research, organize, and review records against those rules.
  4. Deliver source notes and items that still need a decision.

Useful to know

Before you send the brief.

Can you research a specific industry or location?

Include your target market and exclusions in the brief. I’ll review the available sources and confirm a practical scope before committing to the task.

What happens when a field cannot be confirmed?

It stays clearly flagged as unconfirmed. A blank or review note is more useful than an unsupported guess.

Does this include outreach or booked meetings?

This service covers research and list preparation. Outreach, messaging, and appointment setting are separate scopes and are not implied by a research brief.

Your next step

Tell me what a useful result looks like.

Share the task, your current tools, and any constraints. I’ll review the brief and let you know how I can help.
