Account Sourcing

Find every company that matches the profile, from maps data, directories, ad libraries and portfolios, so that the top of the list is built from the whole market rather than whoever you happened to think of.

How it runs

Each source finds accounts the others miss

Trigger

Target profile in

Parallel — 5 sources

  • Maps and local business data
  • Industry directories
  • Ad libraries
  • Portfolio and client pages
  • Social engagement

Step 01

Deduplicate

Step 02

Normalise names and domains

Outcome

Raw account list

What it is

One target profile fans out across several independent sources and comes back as a single deduplicated list of companies.

You need this if list building means one export from one tool, so your ceiling is that tool's coverage and your competitors are buying the identical list.

The accounts your source misses are the ones nobody is emailing.

If you already pull from more than one place, the win is the dedupe and normalisation, which is where multi-source lists usually fall apart.

What it does for you

01

Several sources run against the same profile

so coverage stops being capped by whichever database you happen to pay for.

02

Company names and domains are normalised on the way in

so the same account never enters your pipeline twice under two spellings.

03

New sources plug in as another branch

so widening the market later does not mean rebuilding the list.

Built and running

Solar On Steroids

Live

Solar installers across seven Northeast states were sourced from Google Maps and an industry directory in parallel, then deduplicated into a single account list for the US launch. The same sourcing runs as resumable campaigns with city-level filtering, so a run that stops can be picked back up rather than restarted.
