Prospect List Building Tools Review Vol. 13: Management-Finder from eGrabber

It’s about time for another prospecting tool to be reviewed. I was approached by eGrabber’s team who proposed to me that they would do a demo of their tool, Management-Finder, to see how it works and how a prospecting team can use it.

I invited Luke from the Business Growth Team and we spent some time playing with the tool. It’s an unusual app but highly advanced and Luke got very excited about it. He said that he would save a ton of time with this tool.

I spoke to Clinton Rozario and his colleagues at eGrabber. Let’s find out more about the tool.

About eGrabber:

eGrabber has been working in sales and marketing automation for two decades now. Their first ever invention – the business card reader – was invented and sold way back in the 1990s. After 100,000+ customers in 5 of the 7 continents, 9 brands, and many patents, eGrabber currently sells tools for automated list building and research.

eGrabber tools help those who cannot find ready-to-buy prospect lists; or have in-house starter-lists that need to be updated with decision makers, title, email, phone & other demographic information.

Clinton Rozario

I was curious enough to ask Clinton a couple of questions about eGrabber’s Management-Finder too see how it stands against other tools for prospecting that we’ve reviewed so far. For what I’ve gathered, eGrabber has a bunch of tools for list building. Management-Finder is just one of them.

1. How would you describe eGrabber’s Management-Finder in 4-5 sentences?

Clinton: Management-Finder is an Account-Based Lead Generation tool. If you have a list of Companies, typically you have to manually research for Decision Makers and then their email and phone. This manual process takes a long time. Besides you need an Internet-Research expert. Or worse, you need to designate someone with valuable skills to this manual process.

Management-Finder automates this entire process. You don’t have to spend any time in manually building Account-Based lists. It goes one step further compared to other lead gen tools.

Our experience with eGrabber’s Management-Finder

THINGS WE LOVED

A huge email campaign created in seconds

When the eGrabber team did a demo of Management-Finder for us, Luke couldn’t get over the fact that the tool would make his job a lot faster. And this is the biggest selling point of eGrabber’s Management-Finder — you can build an enormous list in just a few seconds. The team marked the criteria Luke and I chose for our next campaign in LinkedIn Sales Navigator and there we had it, a mountain of prospects who matched our ICP profile.

At first, I didn’t get the impact the tool would have on the job of a prospecting specialist like Luke. But he explained to me that the most ponderous thing for him in his job was manually copying and pasting prospect data from a tool like LinkedIn Sales Navigator into the CSV file.

With a Management-Finder, Luke would just pick choose a website he wants to prospect on, pick a target position of a decision-maker, be it a director, VP or any executive, and he would get a ready-made list of prospects. He could devote the rest of the time on coming up with a personalized copy. That sounds really convincing for us to invest in it.

All in all, Management-Finder automates a really time-consuming process, namely, list making. But you need to have an idea who you’re looking for before you put the tool to work.

The data is accurate

eGrabber’s Management-Finder verifies data before it puts it on the list. Therefore, you don’t get a ton of email bounces. That is very convenient – you pay for what you get. You can be sure that you don’t waste your resources.

THINGS THAT STILL COULD BE IMPROVED

It’s a downloadable program

For those of you who prefer using web apps (like I do) that would be a bummer. You need to download a zip file and install the program on your computer. There’s no alternative. Still, it’s not a deal breaker as the software is pretty intuitive and it does its job – finds prospects for you to reach out to. I suggest you try it out to see if such a solution suits you.

It can be costly for a small team

Luke observed that eGrabber can be quite costly for the team like ours. The trial lasts only 7 days but you can get the most of it. It’s a real time-saver so if you’re on the fence whether you should try it, I encourage you to give it a spin.

To sum up:

eGrabber’s has been around for some time and the team is very experienced in lead generation. Their Management-Finder is a testament to that. It saves you the most tedious part of an outbound sales rep job – list building.
It’s very easy to use. You’re just a two-click away from a list full of potential customers. You can type down the website and filter the upper-managers by the position you want to target.
It can be quite pricey, but it’s worth the money.
