The difference

What hand-checked means

Filters find lookalikes. A person reading the website finds the real fits.

Sample, masked
Nor*** Payroll Inc
nor***payroll.com
In the file
  • Website opened · Loads, product page live
  • Sells what the brief says · HR software, sold to companies
  • Size band · 51 to 200 staff
  • Location · United States
  • Contact role · VP Sales
  • Email · SMTP valid
Bri*** Talent Group
bri***talent.com
Left out
  • Website opened · Loads
  • Sells what the brief says · Staffing agency, not software
  • Size band · 11 to 50 staff
  • Location · United States
  • Contact role · Founder
  • Email · SMTP valid

Brief used here: US B2B software sold to HR teams, 20 to 200 staff, VP Sales or founder. The second company passes every filter a database can run, but a person reading its website sees it sells staffing, not software. It stays out.

Your brief

Write a brief that builds a targeted lead list

One paragraph is enough. Here is how we read it.

Your brief, as typed in the order form
US B2B SaaS, 20 to 200 staff, selling to HR teams. Contact: VP Sales or founder.
Optional: one great customer, for example bestcustomer.com. We use it as the yardstick for fit.
What each phrase becomes
  • US Country filter
  • B2B SaaS Industry filter
  • 20 to 200 staff Size band
  • selling to HR teams Fit rule, checked by hand
  • VP Sales or founder Contact role

Filters narrow the pool. The fit rule is the part software cannot judge, so a person checks it on every company.

FAQ

Lead list building questions

What does a lead list building service do?

It turns a description of your ideal customer into a spreadsheet of companies and the right person at each, with a working email. With Getlead you write the brief in the order form, the Getlead team builds the list from our database and public sources, checks every company by hand against your brief, verifies every email and sends the CSV to your checkout email.

What does hand-checked mean?

A person on the Getlead team opens each company's website and compares it with your brief: what the company sells, who it sells to, its size and its location. If it does not fit the brief you wrote, it does not go in the file. Database filters cannot tell a software company from a staffing agency with a similar description; a person reading the site can.

How much does the lead list building service cost?

$99 for 500 hand-checked leads, $149 for 1,000 and $399 for 5,000. That is $0.20, $0.15 and $0.08 per lead. It is a one-off payment through Stripe checkout, with no subscription.

How long does it take to build my list?

The list is delivered within 2 business days, by email, to the address you pay with. The confirmation email arrives right after checkout; reply to it if you want to add an exclusion list or a detail you forgot.

Where do the leads come from?

From the Getlead database (177M+ people records and 21.6M company profiles) plus public sources such as company websites. The Getlead team builds each list. We do not log into LinkedIn or Apollo to scrape it.

Are the emails verified?

Yes. Every email is checked with a live SMTP handshake by our own verifier before delivery, and the result sits in its own column. Verification lowers bounces but does not guarantee delivery, so keep sending volumes sensible.

What should I put in the brief?

Country, industry, company size, who they sell to and the job title you want to reach. Add one great customer of yours as an example and any companies or industries to avoid. The more specific the fit rule (for example selling to HR teams), the more the hand check is worth.

How is this different from buying leads or an Apollo export?

A bulk lead purchase or an export gives you every row that matches a filter, fast and cheap. A list building service adds a human fit check, so you send fewer emails to companies that were never going to buy. If volume matters more than fit, see the buy leads guide or the Apollo export.
