The pain you recognize

Why buying lists, copying Google by hand, and blasting generic messages does not bring new customers and burns your business line

Paid lists trigger mass blocks, your team burns 2 hours a day copying contacts, and reply rates stay at 3%. Sound familiar?

Bought a list of a thousand contacts and nobody replied

You paid $2,000 for a 'qualified' list of homeowners, shop owners, or property managers. You blasted texts to a thousand of them. You got 30 replies per hundred. Mass blocks, your number flagged as spam by every carrier, and the office manager wasted the morning replying to people who just wanted off the list.

Team time spent hunting leads on Google

Your office manager opens Google Maps, searches 'roofers Tampa', copies 30 phone numbers, opens each one in the text app, copies the company name from the website, saves the contact, sends a message. Two hours, 15 contacts. A full week of that and you still have barely any leads.

Generic message never gets past 'Who is this?'

'Hi! We are [company name] and we offer the best painting services.' The recipient reads it and blocks. No name, no context, no reason. A potentially good lead thought it was spam and you will never get another shot, even when you are the right contractor for their actual job.

Good leads come in but get lost without a tag

You prospected 200 contacts this month. 30 responded. With no campaign tag they piled up in the inbox. Next month, 'that customer who wanted a paint quote' is buried under fresh requests. You cannot remember which one was which.

You type the business type + city, Deco AI scans Google Maps and builds the list. Pick the ones that make sense, send them to the pipeline, and each lead opens with name, address, phone, hours, and rating already enriched.

1

Step 1: You define the customer profile you want

Your industry pre-configures the starting point (homeowners with a listing stale for 60+ days, auto shops with low Google ratings, retail owners considering a new mall location, homeowners in zip code X). You adjust radius, budget band, keywords, and the situation that qualifies them.

2

Step 2: Deco AI scans public sources and enriches the contact

Google Maps (custom radius), Zillow, Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, Nextdoor, public Instagram, open business directories. Deco AI dedupes, validates phone numbers, cross-checks against your existing pipeline so you do not pitch a current customer, and builds a list with name, number, context, and angle.

3

Step 3: Personalized message by context, not a generic blast

Each outreach uses the lead's specific angle: 'Saw your listing on Zillow has been up for 73 days, would you be open to a quick chat about pro photos and a refreshed listing?'. No 'hi, we are [company]'. Daily volume capped (50, 100, 200) to keep your business number in good standing with carriers.

4

Step 4: Responders drop into a tagged pipeline

A reply lands straight in the Kanban tagged with the campaign, the angle that triggered it, and the source. The dispatcher sees the full thread, knows exactly why this lead arrived, and picks up from the right step. No 'hi, what is this about?' from your side.

Real example

Prospecting in action: two real scenarios

How Deco AI found a tired homeowner and a frustrated car owner without anyone copying contacts all afternoon.

Real estate team reaches out to a stuck seller with a specific angle and signs the listing in 2 days

Persona

Mike listed his condo on Zillow 73 days ago. Bad photos, a one-line description, 12 saves per week. Sarah's real estate team prospects for sellers in exactly that situation.

  1. Monday 10:00 AM
    Deco AI

    Scans Zillow within a 30-mile radius of Tampa, identifies 47 listings stale for 60+ days. Filters by price band and seller motivation. 18 contacts left.

    Hub
    Prospecting list ready: 18 owners with Zillow listings 60+ days stale, $200-600k band, Tampa + The Villages.
    10:00 AM
  2. Monday 2:00 PM
    Hub

    Sends a personalized text to Mike referencing his listing.

    Hi Mike, hope you are doing well. Saw your condo on Zillow (listed Mar 24) and thought that with pro photos and a refreshed description it might move a lot faster. Open to a quick chat about an exclusive listing partnership?
  3. Monday 2:08 PM
    Mike

    Replies interested. Lands in the pipeline tagged 'Zillow 60+ days · Tampa'.

    Mike
    Hey! Yeah, it's been sitting a while. Can you walk me through how the exclusive listing works?
    2:08 PM
  4. Wednesday 11:30 AM
    Sarah

    In-home appointment booked Wednesday, exclusive listing signed via the digital contract.

    Mike, your exclusive listing agreement is ready to sign by text. Our photographer is booked for tomorrow at 10 AM.
Outcome

Mike became an exclusive listing in 2 days at $480k. The relisted property with pro photos sold in 26 days. $14,400 in commission from a lead that cost $0.

Before vs. after

Purchased list vs. human team on Google vs. paid ads vs. Reimagine Hub: four ways to find new customers

Without Reimagine Hub

  • Team spends 2 hours a day copying contacts from Google Maps into the text app.
  • Purchased lists trigger mass blocks and your number gets flagged as spam by carriers.
  • Generic message gets a 3% reply rate. Good leads do not realize the offer is for them.
  • With no tag, responders pile up in the inbox. Next month nobody remembers which is which.
  • Dispatcher opens a conversation with no context, wastes 5 minutes asking 'what is this about?'.
  • Business line throttled by the carrier for excessive messaging outside normal patterns.

With Reimagine Hub

  • Deco AI builds the list, validates phone numbers, and enriches context with zero human effort.
  • Daily volume capped, number stays in good standing, message stays within carrier-compliant patterns.
  • Personalized message with a real angle (Zillow listing, low Google review, Nextdoor post) lifts replies to 18%.
  • Each responder tagged by campaign, angle, and source. Nobody gets lost in the pipeline.
  • Dispatcher opens the thread already knowing why the first message went out. Picks up from the right step.
  • Number stays clean: volume and message pattern stay inside carrier and TCPA-style rules.

What sets us apart

Reimagine Hub vs. paid list vs. human team vs. paid ads: what makes active prospecting different

There are several ways to find new leads today. Here is why Deco AI prospecting is not the same as buying a spreadsheet or running paid ads:

Buy a lead list

What it is
Marketplace of lists sold as a spreadsheet (Excel), delivered with name, phone number, and email. Price range $500 to $5,000 per list.
Limitation
Lists arrive cold, recipients never expected your message, reply rate below 3%, your business line gets flagged or throttled by carriers within weeks because of mass blocks. Lists are frequently stale, with numbers that are no longer in service.
Hub
Deco AI builds the list from scratch using public sources updated today. Every lead has a specific angle (listing, review, post). The message is personalized and the daily volume is capped to keep your number healthy.

Human team prospecting on Google

What it is
The traditional model: a dispatcher opens Google Maps, copies a number, saves the contact, sends a generic message, repeats all day.
Limitation
Burns 2 hours of payroll per day to do what AI does in 5 minutes. The message is generic because there is no time to personalize. Good leads slip through because there is no tagging.
Hub
Deco AI builds the list, validates each number, writes the message with a real angle, sends at the right cadence, and tags every responder in the pipeline. Your human team focuses on closing the people who replied, not typing lists.

Paid ads on Google or Meta

What it is
Investment in paid advertising to pull in inbound leads (customers find you via search or social).
Limitation
Cost per lead is high ($30 to $200 per contact depending on the industry and market). Requires continuous spend. People who click are not always serious; the qualification cost compounds at the top of the funnel.
Hub
Outbound prospecting via Deco AI does not replace paid ads, it complements them. Marginal cost per lead is near zero, and conversion is higher because every outreach has specific context. Mixing outbound + inbound outperforms either approach alone.

Technical honesty

When AI prospecting does not fit and outreach should stay human

Deco AI covers the top of the funnel at scale, but some situations need a different path.

Deals with an average ticket above $100k (luxury real estate, large commercial contract) need consultative prospecting, not automated outreach. Hub generates the list, but a human handles the conversation.

Clients that require maximum privacy compliance (government, healthcare, regulated B2B). Hub uses only public sources and respects opt-outs. If a market requires zero outbound outreach, this is not the right use case for the feature.

Lists purchased from a third party are outside any carrier or TCPA rule. Hub does not import outside lists, it only builds lists from scratch with a traceable source and a specific angle.

Industries with no relevant digital footprint (the end customer never advertises, never reviews, has no public profile) limit what the AI can extract. Workaround: combine with human referrals.

What Hub does instead

When a case does not fit, Hub flags the alternative (consultative prospecting, human referral, paid ads) and keeps tracking leads coming in through other channels inside the same pipeline.

Comes with the Hub

AI prospecting is the top of the Reimagine Hub funnel, connected to triage, pre-estimate, and the digital contract

AI lead prospecting is the top of the funnel inside the Reimagine Hub. A discovered lead becomes a conversation tied to the job, feeds the AI triage (emergency, field visit, estimate, support), and triggers the pre-estimate, the scheduler, and the digital contract. The whole pipeline connects, from the first 'hello' to payment, with no orphan spreadsheets anywhere.

Glossary

Active prospecting terms explained

Plain-English definitions for how AI prospecting works in practice.

Ideal customer profile
A description of the type of person or business most likely to become your customer. Includes region, budget band, situation, and behavior. Your industry pre-configures it; you fine-tune.
Angle
The specific reason you are reaching out to this lead. e.g., 'Zillow listing stale 73 days', '2-star review at a competitor', 'Nextdoor post asking for a painter'. With no angle, the message becomes spam.
Public sources
Data available without a login or a paywall (Google Maps, Zillow, Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, Nextdoor, public business directories, public social profiles). Hub never accesses private data and never imports a purchased list.
Daily volume
The number of fresh outbound texts Hub sends per day. Starter default is 50 new outreaches. To scale without triggering carriers, you buy lead packs of Deco-enriched contacts that flow into the send queue at a controlled cadence.
Lead pack
An add-on bundle of Deco-AI-enriched leads on top of the daily Starter base. Packs do not expire for 6 months. Available in 500 ($297), 1,500 ($697), or 5,000 leads ($1,997).

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about AI lead prospecting

Will my business line get flagged by carriers for mass texting?

No, because Hub does not blast. Volume is capped (50-200 new outreaches per day depending on number reputation), every message is personalized with a real angle, and Hub auto-pauses if the block rate climbs above 5%. In 6 months of pilot operation, zero customer numbers were throttled when the default config was followed.

Is this legal? Am I using personal data without permission?

Hub uses only public sources (Google Maps, Zillow, Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, Nextdoor, public social profiles). That data is available to anyone with a browser. You are not buying lists or accessing private databases. Every outbound message includes automatic opt-out: a recipient replies 'not interested' or 'stop' and never receives another message. The flow respects TCPA, CAN-SPAM, and state-level privacy laws (CCPA, Texas DPA, etc.).

Does the AI write the message, or do I?

Both. You write a template with the structure ('Hi {name}, saw {angle} and wanted to offer {value proposition}') and Deco AI fills each placeholder with data specific to the lead. You review the first 5 outreaches before opening the campaign. After that, it runs automatically with sampling-based approval.

Does it work for B2B (selling to a business) or only B2C?

Both. For B2C (end consumer), Hub pulls from Zillow, Marketplace, public neighborhood groups. For B2B (business), Hub pulls from Google Maps, business Instagram, association directories. The angle changes, but the structure is the same.

What if the lead is already my customer or I already reached out last month?

Hub cross-references your pipeline and your prior outreach automatically and blocks duplicates. The same phone number shows up as 'already reached out on' with the date and the campaign. There is no chance of sending the same message twice to the same contact.

How much does this prospecting cost per month?

Included in the Starter plan at $397/month (base volume of 50 new outreaches per day). To scale, you buy lead packs of Deco-AI-enriched leads: pack of 500 ($297), pack of 1,500 ($697), or pack of 5,000 ($1,997). Packs do not expire for 6 months. No per-reply or per-message fees.
