VC Database Scraping → Lead Scoring → CRM Enrichment
Scrape investor data from funding databases, score leads based on investment criteria, and automatically populate your CRM with qualified prospects for fundraising.
Workflow Steps
Apify
Scrape investor databases
Use Apify's web scraping actors to extract investor data from platforms like Crunchbase, AngelList, or PitchBook. Configure scrapers to collect VC firm names, investment focus, check sizes, and portfolio companies.
Google Sheets
Consolidate investor data
Import the scraped data into Google Sheets and clean/standardize the information. Create columns for firm name, partners, investment stage, industry focus, geography, and recent investments.
ChatGPT
Score investment fit
Use ChatGPT to analyze each investor against your startup's profile (stage, industry, geography, funding needs). Generate a fit score (1-10) and explanation for why they're a good or poor match.
Zapier
Filter and enrich top prospects
Set up Zapier to automatically identify high-scoring investors (8+ fit score) and enrich their records with additional data like recent news, email addresses, and LinkedIn profiles using Clearbit or similar services.
HubSpot
Import to CRM with scoring
Automatically sync the scored and enriched investor data to HubSpot CRM. Create custom properties for fit score, investment focus, and last funding activity. Set up workflows to prioritize outreach to top prospects.
