Directory/Free tiers/Lead generation

Free Lead generation software

Lead generation tools find potential customers and give you their contact data. They search company and people databases by industry, size, location, and technology, then return verified emails and phone numbers. Some also handle outreach and enrichment. They are the top of the sales funnel, the same way sourcing tools are the top of the recruiting funnel. This page lists only permanent free tiers, not timed trials.
