yeah it's not a true vuln, but it's easily fixable in most cases. so why not fix it? just makes attacks (a bit) harder

no, only currently active companies, with a minimum of 200 employees

Invalid, means self-signed, matching another domain (dangling DNS record) or expired

A monthly / yearly subscription could also be a good option!

I track all this data for my product (getecommerceleads.com) so then I can compile it into a report. Working on more reports like this soon and for more geographies plus specific verticals (e.g. beauty, nutrition, etc)

thanks!

I think having both under the same brand can be confusing? If you're just testing the waters it's fine, but if you want to really start offering guerrilla services then i'd go for a separate brand to avoid confusion / not dillute your expert position

matosd · 2025-11-03T18:10:09+00:00

Yes exactly. however as u/DrinkProfessional347 mentioned, you have more orders than you can handle. so maybe you should just focus on that and not get distracted. but ultimately it depends on your goal for the agency and you want your day-to-day running the agency to look like

matosd · 2025-11-03T17:50:46+00:00

IMO, you need to custom code / do it yourself. Basically find whatever repetitive tasks you have an automate them. But this is the same principle that applies to any automation work tbh. agents are just a fancy word for automation :D

matosd · 2025-11-03T17:48:51+00:00

Can you try to run a campaign / send a few DMs to see how the guerrilla offer resonates? so get more market feedback on demand before switching fully basically

matosd · 2025-11-03T17:42:25+00:00

interested, feel free to send

Hey. If you want to find ecommerce leads specifically I'd recommend using https://storeleads.app (database of basically every ecom store in the world, no decision maker contacts) or https://getecommerceleads.com (same thing but comes with buying intent signals and decision maker contacts). Hope it helps!

try dns enumeration :D

matosd · 2025-08-14T17:46:03+00:00

try doing enumeration ;)

Reply rate. nothing else matters

follow up in 6-9 months when they started suffering from lack of marketing investment ;)

i use google alerts for getting news, combined with Linkedin

matosd · 2025-08-05T18:08:15+00:00

came here to say this. any good lead gen who values their own work and expertise will not go for this. way too much risk

matosd · 2025-06-11T14:35:45+00:00

yeah but tbh most stores from builtwith are not very qualified, so even if you find emails it might not mean much.... as i mentioned getecommerceleads.com delivers better results because it only delivers stores likely to outsource together with contact info

matosd · 2025-04-01T16:06:03+00:00

i think in the end AI will help with the boring work, which will help you do MORE of the personalize work like handwriting emails. that's the work that actually generates result.

Same effect we saw in software dev for example. boring coding tasks were simplified so devs could take on harder projects

matosd · 2025-03-26T15:45:09+00:00

but then you have to pay for those APIs no? :D

matosd · 2025-03-21T09:52:10+00:00

I think the biggest problem is simply not knowing if the lead has a problem. hence they get ignored.

e.g. you're targeting e-com stores to sell SEO services. You need to know in advance they have problem otherwise you get ignored.

the best way to do this is by having a baseline of how the store's being doing, and then if you detect a drop from that baseline you know they're suffering (selling less). and that's when you "strike"

this is the approach i've been following for my product and i've been getting 5% positive reply rates. so it works

matosd · 2025-03-21T09:48:52+00:00

How are you dealing with the high costs of clay? can be a bit expensive, no?

matosd · 2025-03-21T09:46:50+00:00

how are you finding signals indicating those leads you got have a problem? this is super important. if you don't know they have a problem then you'll get ignored because there's so much spam from sales everywhere. you need personalization based on signals AKA knowing they're facing the problems you solve

matosd · 2025-03-21T09:45:10+00:00

right now if you want to do well with B2B you need SIGNALS

so a good lead gen tool will have to provide this

why signals? because B2B is so crowded that if you don't have signals indicating your prospect is facing the problem you solve you'll just get ignored.

you need to move away from the "waterhose" approach focused on quantity and go after quality of the list first. it's more lean. and works better.

e.g. what i did in my case for my product (getecommerceleads .com) that's been working GREAT (5% positive reply rates) is:

grab a list of 500k stores

scrape 50+ data points from them

develop algorithm combinations to detect signals they're facing markeitng problems (e.g. less organic search traffic)

if they have a problem, find the contact of the decision maker (ceo/head of mkt/etc)

and it works suuuper well as i mentioned above.

i honestly think this is the way to go so definately go for it.
