FAQs

Do I have to use all the filters to find leads?

No. We recommend starting with a few key filters and then gradually adding more to narrow your results. Using too many filters at once can over-restrict your results.

Which filters should I start with?

Start with Job Title (or Department + Seniority), Location, Industry, and Employee Headcount. These core filters define your ideal customer profile quickly. Layer in additional filters like Contact Details, Technologies, or Buying Intent to refine further.

How come I can't access a specific filter?

Some filters are restricted by plan. For example, Duplicate Control and Job Change require Growth or Pro, while Revenue, Funding, and Technologies require Starter or above. See the Premium Filters Summary table above for full details. To view all our plans and features, go to https://prospeo.io/pricing.

Why am I getting no results when I apply filters?

Your filters may be too narrow. Try removing one filter at a time to see which one is over-restricting results. Common causes include combining too many specific job titles with a small location or low headcount range. Also make sure you're not accidentally excluding your target audience via the Duplicate Control filter.

I built my list, how can I export them with contact data?

Select the leads you want, then click Export (for CSV) or Push to CRM from the top action bar. During export, you can choose to enrich only emails, mobiles, or both. Credits are only charged when verified contact data is found. See How to Export People Search Results for a more in-depth walkthrough.

Can I export leads without contact data to save my credits?

No. Exporting leads triggers mandatory email enrichment, so you’ll be charged 1 credit per email found (0 if none is found). There’s no way to export leads without contact data.

Can I save my filter combination to use again later?

Yes. Click Save Search at the top of the filter sidebar. You can name and access your saved searches anytime from the Saved Searches button in the top right action bar.
