Use this play to turn structured prospect and account research into a specific outreach angle and a reviewable draft for each row. Use it when the output needs to become a campaign. It replaces the old prospect list, account mapping, SMB prospecting, outreach, and multi-signal outreach pages. The workflow has one job: produce a list of people worth contacting, with the context needed to write a specific message.

When to use it

  • Build a prospect list from an ICP definition
  • Find decision makers at target accounts
  • Map multiple roles at the same account
  • Add public or private signals before writing outreach
  • Create personalized openers or sequences from verified context
  • Run local-business prospecting from a category and location

With Codex:

Workflow

1

Define the audience

Start with either target accounts, an ICP description, or a local-business query such as “dentists in Austin.” Write the constraints before asking for contacts.
2

Find companies or accounts

Use search, CRM exports, or a company database to create the account list. Keep the first run small so you can inspect whether the audience is right.
3

Find the right people

Search by role and seniority. For account mapping, ask for a few specific roles per department instead of every possible title.
4

Enrich and verify contact data

Resolve LinkedIn URLs, work emails, and other contact fields. Use waterfall tasks for email and contact discovery.
5

Stack signals

Add the context that explains why now: job changes, hiring, funding, competitor engagement, recent news, CRM status, or product usage context.
6

Write outreach context

Generate the opener or sequence from the selected signals. Include the source so a rep can verify the claim before sending.

Quality rules

  • Ask for the smallest useful pilot first.
  • Keep the ICP constraints visible in the prompt.
  • Prefer role lists over vague phrases like “decision makers.”
  • Do not generate personalization from unsourced claims.
  • Put evidence in a column, not only in the email copy.
  • Separate list building from copywriting if the first pass needs review.
