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
A vendor shortlist is hard to act on when no one has time to find the appropriate contact at each company.
- Search for relevant decision-makers when a vendor is named.
- Keep the contact search grounded in the evaluation discussion.
- Reduce the effort of starting a lookup for every shortlisted company.
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 conversationally.
- 3Describe in a single prompt how Notis should search for relevant vendor contacts when a Slack channel message adds a vendor to consideration.
- 4Select Slack Channel Message Received and pick a reporting channel.
- 5Test with one real vendor shortlist post and inspect the search.
