Job Post to Sales Lead Pipeline
Every Monday, it scrapes Indeed for hiring companies, finds decision-makers via Apollo.io.
What it does
You automatically build a weekly sales pipeline by finding active hiring companies on Indeed and locating their decision-makers through Apollo.io. The system then drafts personalized LinkedIn outreach messages using OpenAI and saves the ready-to-use leads directly into your Google Sheets for immediate campaigns.
Step by step
- Configure Scrape.do to target Indeed job search URLs with specific keywords like 'hiring' or 'open role'.
- Set up Apollo.io API credentials and define the endpoint for organization and person enrichment.
- Create a Google Sheet with fixed columns for Company Name, Contact Email, LinkedIn URL, and Outreach Message.
- Write code to parse the JSON response from Scrape.do into a structured list of company entities.
Where the LLM does the work
- Generate personalized LinkedIn outreach messages that reference the specific job title and company context found in the scrape data.
- Refine the tone of the generated message to match a professional yet approachable sales development representative style.
- Summarize the key value proposition for each lead based on their industry and recent hiring activity.
Watch out for
Indeed's anti-bot measures can block requests so implement random delays between scrapes to avoid IP bans.
LinkedIn URLs from Apollo can sometimes be outdated or private so verify the contact status before sending high-volume outreach.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use a different Web Scraping than Scrape.do?
Yes. Scrape.do is only the example web scraping in this recipe. The same flow works with Airtop, Apify, Bright Data and Decodo. Swap the web scraping connection and keep the rest of the setup as written.
