Qualifying & Ignoring Prospects
Quickly triage prospects to focus your time on the best-fit companies.
When to use this
- You’re doing the morning prospecting sprint. Open a segment in Dashboard view and hit Qualify/Ignore on 50 companies in 15 minutes — each click surfaces the next card, so your momentum doesn’t break.
- You want qualified work to auto-flow into your CRM pipeline. Pair triage with list actions: “Qualify” moves the company into your “Ready for Outreach” list, which auto-exports to CRM. Your triage becomes the whole pipeline-building workflow.
- You want the team applying the same bar. Use organization-wide Qualification Criteria (e.g., “In Nordics,” “Has outbound SDRs,” “Uses a CRM”) so every rep checks the same 3 boxes before qualifying — no more debates about what counts as ICP.
- You’re cleaning a segment so it stops showing noise. Ignoring a company removes it from future segment views, so a segment you’ve been working for weeks gets progressively tighter instead of showing the same rejects on every pass.
Before you begin
- You should be viewing a segment or list in Dashboard view.
Steps
- Navigate to a segment or list and switch to Dashboard view.
- For each company card, you’ll see two action buttons:
- Qualify — Marks the company as a good prospect. If your list has a “Successful list action” configured, the company will be automatically moved or added to the designated list.
- Ignore — Marks the company as not a fit. If your list has an “Unsuccessful list action” configured, it will be handled accordingly.
- Qualified and ignored companies are tracked, so your segment view stays focused on untriaged prospects.
Tip: Set up list actions in Advanced Options when creating a list, so qualified companies automatically land in your pipeline list and ignored ones are archived.
Using qualification criteria
Your organization can define up to 3 global Qualification Criteria in Settings. These appear on each company’s Overview tab as checkable criteria (e.g., “Outbound,” “Sales reps,” “Nordics”), helping your team apply consistent standards.
