Trigger

Action
Create Lead Finder Search
Tool to create a new Lead Finder search to discover leads based on company and people criteria. Use when you need to find prospects matching specific job titles, departments, seniority, company size, industry, or technology stack.
Why this helps
Research findings and company names often accumulate faster than a founder can identify useful people to contact.
- Search for relevant contacts at companies surfaced in research discussions.
- Keep the reason for each search close to the Slack context.
- Avoid recreating research criteria in a second tool.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Bettercontact to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3Tell Notis in one instruction to search for relevant people when a channel post identifies a company for market research.
- 4Select Slack Channel Message Received and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real company mention and review the search results.
