Getting leads: getting a steady flow of leads, fixed in 30 days

One named buyer, one channel run at real volume for 30 days, and follow-up that does the work most first touches never do.

Three ways to run it: do it yourself with the free step-by-step playbook, let the agent run it, or have us run it for you. See the options

The getting leads playbook: 30 days, step by step

The problem

Pipelines depend on referrals and the founder, and outbound burns domains faster than it books calls.

  • “Anyone else burning through cold email domains faster than they can warm them?” source
  • “you literally can't manually scrape google maps, enrich through clay” source

What agencies already pay for

  • Apollo: prospect data and sequences. (Agency Growth review of public agency-owner posts (r/agency, r/digital_marketing, r/gohighlevel), Oct 2025 to Oct 2026: 305 mentions)
  • Clay: enrichment. (Agency Growth review of public agency-owner posts (r/agency, r/digital_marketing, r/gohighlevel), Oct 2025 to Oct 2026: 99 mentions)
  • Instantly / Smartlead: cold email sending. (Agency Growth review of public agency-owner posts (r/agency, r/digital_marketing, r/gohighlevel), Oct 2025 to Oct 2026: 66 and 61 mentions)

The gap

The tools find contacts and send. Nothing decides which prospects deserve a message or writes a first touch specific enough to earn a reply.

The 30 days

  1. Week 1

    Name the one buyer you serve best and write the list: 200 real prospects that match.

  2. Week 2

    Start outbound at real volume: 20 contacts a day, one channel, one offer, no A/B fiddling.

  3. Week 3

    Keep the volume and add follow-up: most replies come from touch 2 to 4, not touch 1.

  4. Week 4

    Review the numbers per stage (sent, replies, calls) and double down on the segment that answered.

The numbers to track

  • Contacts reached per day: Sent count from your sending tool; the plan's floor is 20 a day.
  • Reply rate: Replies divided by contacts reached, per segment.
  • Calls booked per week: Booked calls from your calendar, tagged by source.
