ListKit’s smart filtering system makes it simple to generate high-quality lead lists tailored to your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP). This quick guide will walk you through your first export — from setting targeting filters to downloading a lead list you can immediately plug into your outreach campaigns.

Let’s get started!



Step 1: Define Your Target Using Filters

The first step is choosing the right filters that match your desired buyer persona or company profile.

Carefully configure your filters to pinpoint the industries, roles, technologies, geos, or company sizes you want to target.

Once satisfied, click “Next Step” at the top-right corner of your dashboard.



Step 2: Set Export Preferences

Choose What Contact Info You Need

Depending on how you plan to reach out, select one of the following:

  • Email leads → Ideal for email-first outreach

  • Phone leads → Best for sales teams doing cold calling

  • Email + Phone → For hybrid, multi-channel outreach



Configure Export Settings

Fine-tune your export with:

  • Contacts per company → Limit how many contacts you want from each company

  • Total leads volume → Set the number of leads you want in the export
    Then click “Redeem Credits” to start processing your list.




Keep Your List Clean with Exclusion Logic

To avoid duplicates from previous orders, make sure the “Exclude existing leads from past orders” box is checked. This ensures your export contains only fresh contacts.


📥 Step 3: Download Your Leads

Once your export finishes processing, you’ll be able to retrieve your lead list in just a few clicks:

  1. Head to Order History from the navigation menu

  2. Locate your completed order in the list

  3. Click the three dots menu next to that order

  4. Choose “Download” to save your lead list locally



Launching Your First Campaign

The leads you’ve exported are Triple Verified, ensuring top-tier accuracy, low bounce rates, and better results from your campaigns — whether you're sending emails, making calls, or both.
