How to leverage this action’s output?
The Extract Sales Navigator Search Metrics action provides a powerful way to collect and refine lead data from Sales Navigator. Once you've gathered your leads, there are several ways you can maximize the value of this data for prospecting, sales outreach, and lead qualification.
First, once you've generated a list of employees from a company, you can start segmenting these leads based on the parameters you set—such as job title, seniority level, or geographic location. For example, if you're targeting decision-makers, focusing on seniority levels like VP or C-level will help you prioritize outreach to the most relevant contacts. The ability to search using Boolean keywords also gives you the flexibility to filter leads even more precisely. For instance, you might want to target "Marketing Directors" while excluding "Assistants" to ensure you're connecting with the right people.
Another way to leverage this output is by integrating it directly into your CRM system. With the Exclude CRM Contacts filter, you'll avoid adding duplicate records, ensuring that your database stays clean and up to date. This is particularly useful for teams using Sales Navigator Enterprise, where CRM integration can seamlessly connect lead data from Sales Navigator with your existing contacts. From there, you can further enrich these leads by adding phone numbers or emails, making your outreach efforts more comprehensive and actionable.
If you're working with larger lead lists, consider scheduling regular extractions to stay updated on employee movements within a company. People change roles and companies, so having the latest information is key to maintaining the accuracy of your pipeline. By automatically extracting new or updated employee metrics, you can keep your lead lists fresh and relevant without having to manually search each time.
In terms of outreach strategy, you can also combine this action with others like Message LinkedIn Profile to send personalized messages to these leads. After refining your search and gathering the right contacts, sending tailored messages through Sales Navigator can significantly improve response rates. When leads see that you’ve taken the time to engage with them based on their specific role or location, it helps build credibility and trust, which is essential for moving prospects down the sales funnel.
In conclusion, this action empowers sales teams to automate their lead generation process with precision. From identifying key prospects to refining outreach strategies, the Extract Sales Navigator Search Metrics action ensures you’re always working with the most relevant data, allowing you to engage leads more effectively and close deals faster.
