Buying signals

Six ways to find B2B prospects from buying signals

Most platforms let you filter by title and industry. hubsell also reads behaviour.

People following your company page or a competitor’s, engaging with a LinkedIn post, changing jobs, attending events, or hiring for specific roles.

Signals tell you who is worth contacting this week, not just who matches a filter.

LinkedIn prospecting

LinkedIn prospecting, signal by signal

Each signal starts from a link, a search or your ICP. hubsell collects the people, checks them against your ICP and enriches the ones that fit, ready for outreach.

  1. LinkedIn post engagement

    People who react to, comment on or repost a LinkedIn post have already shown interest in the topic. hubsell collects them from the post, checks each one against your ICP and enriches the ones that fit. Use your own posts, a competitor’s or those of a known voice in your industry.

    Starts from: A link to any LinkedIn post

  2. LinkedIn event attendees

    Everyone who registers for a LinkedIn event has signed up to a topic. hubsell collects the attendee list, qualifies it against your ICP and enriches the contacts that fit, so you can reach them before, during or after the event.

    Starts from: A link to a LinkedIn event

  3. Company and competitor followers

    People who follow your company page already know you. People who follow a competitor’s page are interested in what you sell. hubsell collects both groups and keeps only the people who match your ICP.

    Starts from: Your company page or a competitor’s

  4. Job changes

    Someone new in a role is building their stack and their team, which makes the first months the best time to reach them. hubsell finds people who recently changed jobs in your target accounts and roles.

    Starts from: Your ICP: roles and target companies

  5. Companies hiring for specific roles

    A company hiring SDRs or account executives is investing in sales right now. hubsell takes a LinkedIn search filtered on companies hiring for those roles and finds the decision-makers there.

    Starts from: A LinkedIn search with the hiring filter

GDPR

GDPR-compliant B2B data

hubsell sources and processes data ad hoc, for a purpose you set before a single contact is sourced, and does not keep it to resell. You stay the data controller and hubsell is your processor. A database vendor works the other way round: it collects data to sell it again.

Outreach to business contacts rests on legitimate interest under the GDPR. hubsell is based in Berlin, Germany, and the platform runs on Amazon Web Services servers in Frankfurt.

Every customer can sign hubsell’s data processing agreement, which sets out how personal data is handled, which sub-processors may work with it and how requests from the people in your data are answered. When a contract ends, the data in your account is deleted within 30 days.

B2B data FAQ

Questions about live B2B data

Live-sourced data is collected at the moment you ask for it, for your search, instead of coming from a database that was captured months or years earlier. hubsell builds a fresh set of contacts for each request, matched to your ICP and verified at the point of use. A contact database sells access to records that have been ageing since the day they were collected.

B2B decision-makers change jobs about every 2.5 years, so a static database loses 25 to 30% of its accuracy every year. Emails bounce, titles change and people move to another company. Data sourced on the day you use it avoids that decay.

hubsell sources data live from LinkedIn and company websites, and creates data itself, for example by generating and validating work email addresses. Phone numbers come from partners chosen for accuracy and quality, not price.

Yes. hubsell sources and processes data ad hoc for each customer and does not keep it to resell. The customer is the data controller and hubsell is the processor, under a data processing agreement. hubsell is based in Berlin, runs on servers in Frankfurt and deletes account data within 30 days after a contract ends.

For outreach to business contacts, the legal basis is usually legitimate interest. With hubsell, the customer stays the data controller and sets the purpose before a single contact is sourced, and hubsell processes the data for that purpose only. Rules for cold email differ by country, so read our guide to B2B data compliance.

hubsell can source people who engaged with a LinkedIn post, attended a LinkedIn event, follow your company page or a competitor’s, recently changed jobs, or work at companies hiring for specific roles. You can also start from a LinkedIn or Sales Navigator search, or import your own list.

Paste the link to the post or event into hubsell. It collects the people who reacted, commented or registered, qualifies them against your ICP, and enriches the ones that fit with verified contact data. They can then go straight into a flow of LinkedIn, email and call tasks.

hubsell’s data is 95% accurate, catch-all domains included, and covers 80 to 90% of a target market. Every record is verified at the point of use, not when it was first collected. hubsell is happy to run a comparison test against your current provider.

You pay for processing results, step by step: sourcing, then enrichment, validated email addresses and phone numbers. Because each step is charged on its own, you can review the sourced contacts first and suppress the ones that are not relevant, so you only pay to enrich the contacts you keep. See pricing.

ZoomInfo, Apollo and Cognism sell access to a database. hubsell sources data fresh for each request, so it is current, qualified against your ICP and relevant to the signals you choose. hubsell also runs the outreach and syncs it to your CRM, where those tools mostly stop at the data. Compare: ZoomInfo, Apollo, Cognism.
