Scrupp: Smart LinkedIn Lead Filtering for Sales Navigator

Valeria / Updated 23 may

Up to 40% of your Sales Navigator search results don't match your filters.

This discrepancy often arises because LinkedIn profiles are self-reported, and titles or industries can be broad, outdated, or even misleading. For instance, someone might have 'Marketing' in their headline but primarily perform sales functions, or their listed company might have changed its primary industry focus. These nuances make precise targeting challenging without an additional layer of verification.

According to a recent study by Gartner, inaccurate data can cost companies an average of $12.9 million per year. With LinkedIn Sales Navigator, this translates to wasted time and resources spent on unqualified leads. Scrupp helps you avoid this by ensuring the data you export is accurate and relevant, saving you valuable time and money. By using Scrupp export features, you're investing in data quality.

Scrupp Automatically detects the false positives in your search results.

Scrupp goes beyond simple filtering. It leverages advanced algorithms to analyze profile data and identify discrepancies between stated information and actual roles or industries. This ensures that the leads you export are genuinely aligned with your target criteria. For example, someone might list 'Marketing' in their headline but their experience clearly indicates a sales role. Scrupp catches these nuances.

Here's a quick tip: Before running a large Scrupp export, test your filters with a smaller sample. This allows you to fine-tune your criteria and ensure you're targeting the right audience, maximizing the efficiency of your lead generation efforts.

General Best Practices for Sales Navigator Filtering

  • Be Specific with Keywords: Beyond standard filters, use precise keywords in your search to narrow down results. Think about job responsibilities, specific technologies used, or niche industry terms.
  • Leverage Boolean Search: Combine keywords with AND, OR, NOT operators to create highly targeted searches. For example, "Marketing AND (Director OR Manager) NOT Intern".
  • Utilize Advanced Filters: Explore less common filters like "Years in current company," "Seniority level," or "Company headcount" to refine your ideal customer profile (ICP).
  • Save Searches: Save your most effective searches to quickly revisit and update them, ensuring consistent lead flow.
  • Regularly Review Results: Even with robust filtering, periodically review a sample of your leads to ensure they still align with your evolving ICP.
