Company Finder - Step by Step Guide

With your ideal target identified, this tool helps you transform your ICP and location into actionable search segments.



Step 1 -
Generate Queries - Location and details about your ICP

  • Select the locations (cities, regions, or districts) you want to include

  • Add product description, and specify good and bad match criteria

Step 2 - Generate Queries - Search Matrix Setup

  • Based on your earlier input, SAAS First generates a list of relevant categories (keywords) and locations.

  • You can select any number of categories and locations to tailor the query.

  • The system calculates estimated credit usage. You only pay for verified results found. Unused credits are refunded.


Step 3 - Deep Email Verification

  • Email statuses are verified using MillionVerifier. Alternatively, you can integrate other verification services, such as ZeroBounce, NeverBounce or BounceBan.

  • Each email receives a quality rating (good, risky, etc.) and result label (ok, unknown, etc.).

  • Duplicate entries are removed.


Step 3: Enrichment (you can skip this step)

  • Optionally add more details to leads such as:

    • Company information

    • Connection (URLs, phone numbers)

    • Operational (Industries, SEO, keywords)

    • Location

    • Revenue and Founding

    • Personal Information

    • Social Media

    • Job position

      etc.

    This step is powered by Apollo. If you have not connected Apollo yet, please find more information here.


Step 5: Export - Choose how you want your file exported

  • Export your cleaned list as a CSV file.

  • This step can be automated with CRM systems and outreach platforms integrations (e.g. Instantly, as shown below).


After this initial setup, click on the "Run" button, and wait for the result. Depending on the size of your file, this can take up to a several minutes.

If you wish to discard your file and quit the process, you may use the "Delete" button.


Step 6: Download

After the process finished running, you may download your file from the main Lead to Deal screen where you can view all your lead lists.



Your new, verified list filtered to your unique business needs is now ready to work your magic with!
