Prospect List

A prospect list is the curated set of accounts and contacts you're actively reaching out to — built from ICP criteria, enriched, scored, and ready for sequencing.

What is a prospect list?

A prospect list is the working list of named accounts and contacts an outbound team is currently pursuing. Different from "every name in the CRM" — a prospect list is curated, scored, enriched, and segmented to match an active campaign or play.

Why it matters

  • The unit of outbound execution — every sequence runs against a list
  • Quality of the list dictates quality of the campaign more than copy does
  • Treating it as a project (built, run, retired) prevents the "we've emailed this person 8 times this year" mess

What makes a list great

  • Tight ICP alignment — every name fits the criteria
  • Verified contact info — no bouncy emails dragging deliverability down
  • Enriched with personalization fuel (recent post, hire, funding)
  • Sized realistically against expected reply rate and rep capacity
