BUSINESS ACCOUNT DISCOVERY · Workflow idea

Turn a market question into a shortlist worth investigating.

Describe the type of organization, location, and business context you are researching, then organize public company candidates with their websites and brief relevance notes. Keep the criteria visible, flag uncertain matches, and have a researcher verify each organization before adding it to business records or considering outreach.

The handoff

A structured company shortlist with public website links, match notes, and verification status.

Keep in mind

Search results can include unrelated, inactive, or incorrectly identified businesses. Use job- and company-relevant criteria, preserve source links, and verify identity and suitability with a person. Treat the result as research rather than a customer record, and require separate approval of any contact purpose, recipient, and message before outreach.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define eligible research criteria

Use necessary company-level characteristics and exclude unrelated or sensitive personal criteria.

Limit shortlist size and sources

Choose an appropriate number of candidates and retain the public source behind each match.

Set verification and retention practices

Flag uncertain results, limit access, and remove research records when no longer needed.

Keep outreach under human approval

Require a person to verify contact preferences and approve every exact recipient and message.
