Andrew Fogg helps get you 10,000 leads in 10 minutes at Hustle Con
About this video
Andrew Fogg, founder of Import.io, presents a strategy for generating high-volume, high-quality leads by combining web data extraction with personalized outreach. He demonstrates how to identify where target users congregate online, build APIs to scrape that data, and execute automated yet personalized messaging campaigns across multiple channels without writing code.
Key takeaways
- Traditional lead sources trade off quantity for quality—databases offer scale but poor data, while trade shows and social media offer quality but limited volume. Andrew proposes web data extraction as a way to achieve both.
- Andrew’s recipe involves finding websites where users congregate, extracting detailed data via Import.io, pulling results into a spreadsheet, creating highly personalized message templates, and automating outreach across channels while managing cadence to avoid appearing spammy.
- Andrew describes using Import.io to target 13,000 developers on Odesk who list scraping as a service, building an API to their profiles, and automating personalized job invitations with trackable links to measure conversion from outreach to account creation.
