๐ ๏ธ Laifaxin's 3 Lead Generation Toolsโ
Laifaxin gives you 3 main ways to "search companies", and the main battlefield is the AI Database:
| Tool | When to Use | Entry |
|---|---|---|
| ๐ AI Database (main battlefield) | Search tens of thousands of prospects with one sentence ยท includes Find Similar + AI Inference | ๐ AI Database |
| ๐ Company Domain Search | Already have customer URL โ enter domain to get full company profile | 2๏ธโฃ Detailed article |
| ๐ข Company Name Search | Already have company name โ enter name to get full company info | 2๏ธโฃ Detailed article |
๐ก Newcomers mostly use the AI Database (includes the two killer features: Find Similar + AI Inference). A single search can return 10,000 peer companies. See 1๏ธโฃ Search for details.
The latter two are good when you already have a small customer list / domains and want quick background-check profiles. See 2๏ธโฃ Filter for details.
๐ฏ Customer Journey ยท 5 Status Stagesโ
Laifaxin splits every customer's sales progress into 5 stages, switchable with one click from the status pipeline at the top of contact details:
| Status | When to Switch Here |
|---|---|
| โช New | Default ยท no outreach email sent yet |
| ๐ก Followed Up | Mass email / Smart Follow-up has been sent |
| ๐ข Inquired | Customer's substantive reply / asks for quote (not OOO (Out of Office ยท auto-reply)) |
| ๐ฆ PI Sent | You've sent Proforma Invoice quote |
| ๐ฐ Closed | Customer paid ยท deal closed |
๐ก Key usage: Filter by Status = ๐ข Inquired on the contacts page โ get your full list of truly interested customers in 1 second, avoiding noise from low-interest leads.
