# Lead research Turn a target profile or a company name into a ranked, evidence-backed list of prospects with the right person to contact and a reason to reach out. Read-only against the CRM: this skill never creates or edits CRM records. Hand the finished list to the person, who decides what enters the CRM. ## Inputs to confirm first 1. **What we are selling:** membership, a subscription tier, an event sponsorship, a service package, or a partnership. Check your org's own catalog or offerings skill, if you have one, for what's currently open and its qualifying criteria. The offering decides who the buyer is. 2. **The profile or the name:** either an ideal-customer description (industry, region, size, maturity, a problem your organization solves) or one company to qualify. If no profile is given, pull the target profile from the `org-context` template skill. 3. **How many:** default 10 companies, one to two contacts each. Ask one question if the offering is missing. Everything else can start from defaults. ## Sources, in order | Step | Tool | What it gives | |---|---|---| | 1.
