lead-researcher

What This Skill Does

The lead-researcher skill is a powerful, automated B2B sales engine designed to streamline the top-of-funnel prospecting process. By utilizing advanced web-scraping and intent-monitoring capabilities, it identifies prospective clients based on specific pain points and industry signals. Unlike static databases that grow stale, this skill performs real-time discovery across social platforms like X (Twitter), Reddit, and general web sources. Once a lead is identified, the skill performs enrichment to extract key contact information—such as names and decision-maker roles—before calculating a proprietary lead score based on urgency and qualification. Finally, it uses AI to draft hyper-personalized outreach messages that reference the specific problems the prospect recently voiced, significantly increasing your chances of starting a meaningful conversation.

Installation

You can integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment by executing the following command in your terminal or ClawHub interface: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/rjrileybuisness-ai/lead-researcher. Ensure your environment has the necessary API keys configured for external search and enrichment providers to enable full functionality.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for agencies looking to identify prospective clients who are actively voicing marketing struggles, SaaS companies building outbound pipelines, and consultants who need to find firms dealing with niche operational issues. Freelancers can also use this to automate the "cold reach" phase of their business, ensuring they only pitch clients who have a demonstrated, present need for their services.

Example Prompts

1. "Find 15 e-commerce brands on Twitter that have recently expressed frustration with high cart abandonment rates and draft a brief outreach email."
2. "Research 10 SaaS startups in the healthcare space currently hiring for customer success managers and identify their primary pain points regarding user retention."
3. "Find 5 local boutique fitness studios in Seattle that do not currently feature video content on their social media pages and prepare a value-prop summary."

Tips & Limitations

To maximize the quality of leads, prioritize specific pain points over broad industry categories. For example, instead of searching for "e-commerce brands," search for "e-commerce brands struggling with Shopify integration errors." Be aware that while this tool automates discovery, high-volume outreach should always be verified against your internal email deliverability protocols. The accuracy of the enrichment data depends heavily on the availability of public information; in some cases, the contact field may require manual validation. Always review the generated outreach messages to ensure they align with your brand voice before sending.
