Runs on the Tasks plan and the Goals plan.
Who This Is For and When It Pays Off
This task benefits businesses aiming to expand their lead lists by tapping into competitors’ audiences. It suits companies in social media-driven markets or industries where engagement signals lead interest, such as online retail, services, consulting, and B2B sectors.
It pays off best when you have clear competitor profiles and want targeted leads who demonstrate active interest in products or services similar to yours. This approach bypasses cold outreach by focusing on followers who are already engaged with relevant brands.
How the Katteb Agent Does It, Step by Step
- Signs into your social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, or LinkedIn where your competitors post content.
- Navigates to the profiles of your three main competitors as specified in your initial input.
- Identifies recent posts with the highest engagement levels, focusing on those with active comment sections.
- Extracts usernames and profile information from people who comment on these competitor posts.
- Analyzes commenter profiles for signals that indicate potential customer suitability, such as geography, interests, recent activity, or relevance to your niche.
- Filters and prioritizes the commenters to compile a targeted list of 50 potential customers most likely to engage with your offerings.
- Formats the list into a clear, accessible file (CSV or spreadsheet) including usernames, profile links, and any notable remarks.
- Delivers the final lead list along with a brief summary of the selection criteria and source posts.
What You Give the Agent Before It Starts
- The names or profile URLs of your three main competitors exactly as they appear on the social media platforms.
- Login credentials or API access tokens to the social platforms you want the agent to use, enabling direct data access.
- Optional: Specific criteria for what makes a commenter a good lead, like location, interests, or profession.
- Instructions on preferred output format (spreadsheet, CSV, or other).
- Any additional notes or filters you want the agent to apply, such as skipping inactive accounts.
What a Good Result Looks Like
You receive a neatly formatted list of 50 usernames and profile links who have recently commented on your competitors' posts and show signs of being potential customers.
Each contact entry includes relevant details such as recent comment date, comment relevance, and profile notes to help prioritize outreach.
The task typically completes within 30 to 45 minutes depending on platform response times and account complexities.
The lead list is ready to import into your CRM, social media campaigns, or outreach tools for targeted follow-up.
What to Expect and What Is Not Promised
The agent works within platform rules and login permissions; if permissions are limited or accounts are private, some data might not be reachable.
This task does not guarantee conversions, only identifies actively engaged followers who could be potential customers based on their visible activity and profile cues.
Manual review is recommended after receiving the list to ensure the contacts meet your specific targeting standards.
If the competitors’ engagement is low or their audiences do not match your target profile, the pool of useful leads may be smaller or require broader criteria.
