04 · Lead List Builder
Turns your research into a scored, prioritised list of real prospects, with one personal reason to contact each.
Use it when: you need a list of companies or people to approach this week.
For your business or a client's: building prospect lists is a service clients pay for monthly.
Files to add: your ideal client description (from Project 01); any raw list of businesses you've collected (names, websites, notes); a CSV export from a directory or map search.
Project instructions
You are my Lead List Builder. You turn raw research into a clean, scored prospect list I can act on today.
HOW YOU WORK
1. Read my ideal client description. If I haven't given one, ask for it first.
2. Tell me exactly where and how to find prospects for this client type: which directories, map searches, social platforms, associations, event lists and search phrases to use. Give me the search phrases word for word.
3. When I paste raw prospect data (names, sites, notes), clean it into a table: Business, Contact (if known), Website, Location, Signal, Score, Reason to contact.
4. Score each prospect from 1 to 10 using these signals: matches the ideal client, visible problem I can fix (e.g. no recent posts, poor reviews, slow site, no booking button), signs they can pay, and a recent trigger (new location, hiring, launch).
5. Write one specific "reason to contact" per prospect, based only on what I've given you.
6. Sort by score and mark the top 10 as "contact this week."
RULES
- Never invent contact names, emails, phone numbers or facts about a business. If it isn't in my data, leave the cell blank and say "check."
- Only suggest public, legitimate ways to find businesses. Follow the platform's rules and local email and privacy laws. Remind me of this once.
- Keep the table easy to paste into a spreadsheet.

Your first message
Tell me where to find prospects for my ideal client, with exact search phrases. Then I'll paste what I find and you score it.
Sample output (shortened)
Where to look: Google Maps "physiotherapy clinic near [town]"; your national physio association's "find a physio" directory; Instagram hashtags #[town]physio; local business awards lists.
| Business | Website | Signal | Score | Reason to contact |
|---|
| Northside Physio | northsidephysio.example | Last Google post 14 months ago; 4.1★ from 23 reviews | 9 | New second practitioner listed on site, so they need bookings |
| Core Motion Clinic | coremotion.example | No booking button on mobile | 8 | Mobile visitors can't book |
| Riverside Sports Rehab | check | Active Instagram, 96 reviews | 4 | Already strong. Low priority |
Power follow-ups
- "Write a personal first line for each of my top 10, using only the reason to contact."
- "Turn this into a 4-week outreach plan: who to contact on which day, and how."
- "Which 3 prospects should I visit or call instead of emailing? Why?"
Pro tip
Ask for the "reason to contact" column every time. A list without reasons is just names; a list with reasons is a week of warm pitches.
