In the dashboard, click "Start search run". A run costs 10 credits and delivers 10 finished leads (typically in 5–12 minutes). Fields (all in plain language): <ul> <li>Type of company (required) — e.g. "folding-box manufacturer with its own die-cutter"</li> <li>Region — e.g. "NRW", "greater Hamburg", or "nationwide"</li> <li>Contact person — e.g. "managing director", "head of purchasing"</li> <li>Additional constraints (optional)</li> </ul> Before starting, Leadscraper quickly checks feasibility.

Q: Example searches for your industry

Because you search in plain language, here are a few templates to adapt: <ul> <li>Industry/manufacturing: "folding-box manufacturers with their own die-cutter in NRW, head of purchasing"</li> <li>Trades: "roofing companies in Bavaria, 10–50 employees, owner/managing director"</li> <li>Services: "tax firms in the greater Hamburg area, 3–15 employees"</li> <li>Tech/SaaS: "SaaS companies in the DACH region currently hiring sales reps"</li> <li>Hospitality/retail: "hotels in Austria, family-run, managing director"</li> </ul> Rule of thumb: everyday terms + region + contact person. The more specific, the better — and every rating improves it.
