Where the list stands today

Outreach lanes

Every qualified person sits in one of four outreach lanes — the angle your team leads with. Direct Buyers own an internal function (the economic buyer); Referrals are senior asks; Operators are hands-on; AI Champions lead internal adoption.

Company fit strength

Qualified accounts are graded strong or plausible on ICP fit. There is no "weak" band — weak firms never entered the account universe.

Lead confidence

How sure the scoring engine was about each person, based on the strength and agreement of the evidence in their profile.

Who they are

Function leaders lead an internal function (Head of / CxO of a team) — these are the buyers. Company leaders are firm-top (CEO/MD/Founder) and are used for referrals, not pitched. Operators are hands-on. "Function leader" does not mean company owner.

Internal vs external

The core of the rubric: people who own their firm's internal knowledge/AI, not client-facing sellers.

Depth vs breadth

Contacts per covered firm — where you have one contact vs a cluster.

Outreach so far

How many of these have already been touched via email or LinkedIn.

Top geographies

Where the qualified people are based. Full world map on the Coverage page.

From raw universe to qualified list — the funnel

Every enriched profile was read; only genuinely-qualified internal decision-makers were kept. This is a quality filter, not a headcount cut.

The Refresh — what this rebuild uncovered

The list was re-read end-to-end against a stricter, evidence-based rubric. Here is what changed, and why it is an upgrade.

Net-new vs retained

The rebuild surfaced genuinely-new internal owners and confirmed the strongest originals.

Net-new by origin

Undercover owners hiding in the original set, plus the fresh expansion firms.

Outreach history & performance

Campaigns run to date across email (Instantly) and LinkedIn (HeyReach). Reply rates are early — most sequences are still live.

Coverage & world map

How much of your qualified-account universe now has at least one real decision-maker — and where those firms sit.

Covered vs still open

Open firms are on the Coverage Gaps page — where you may want to dig manually.

Coverage gaps — firms with no lead yet

Qualified accounts where the search found no qualifying internal decision-maker. Worth a manual look — a good title may exist that isn't publicly visible.
These firms passed account qualification but returned nobody who met the person-level bar (right seniority + genuine internal remit). That is expected for a strict decision-maker filter. Use this list to decide where to dig by hand.

How this was built

The full journey from a blank slate to this qualified list — the logic at each stage, kept deliberately high-level on the underlying tooling.
This is the process, not the recipe. The specific tools, data sources and model configuration behind each stage are Acumen's own method and are intentionally not detailed here.

How to use these files

Taking this list live — email and LinkedIn — plus getting phone numbers yourself.

1 · Build a campaign list

On the Lead Explorer, filter to the people you want (e.g. Direct Buyers, UK, never contacted), then Download view — or tick individuals into the basket and download just those.

2 · Email — upload & map

Upload the CSV to your email sequencer, map the columns (first name, company, email, LinkedIn), and drop in approved copy. Suggested cadence is in the SOP pack on Downloads.

3 · LinkedIn — HeyReach

Upload the same list (LinkedIn URL column) to HeyReach for connection + message steps. Keep to a sensible daily limit per seat.

4 · Phone numbers (do this yourself)

Phones bill per lookup, so they are your call: download the leads you want to dial, upload to FullEnrich to append numbers, then work the list.

5 · The Loom send

The Loom walkthrough approach (recording + embedding in email) is in the SOP pack.
