name: Prospect / call-list vetting criteria for ACG
description: When vetting a purchased lead list for an outside appointment-setting firm, dedupe against Syncro (customers AND contacts, by email domain) and strip five categories Mike does not want onboarded.
type: feedback
---
Mike periodically buys a Tucson-area lead list and has it vetted before handing it to an
outside sales / appointment-setting firm. Confirmed criteria (2026-07-22, on
"Arizona Computer Guru New List.csv", 238 rows -> 168 callable / 70 excluded).
**Why:** the setting firm calls on ACG's behalf, so a call into a current client, a
competitor, or a prospect ACG would refuse to onboard is an embarrassment ACG pays for.
**How to apply:**
1. **Dedupe against Syncro, not the wiki.** `wiki/clients/` holds ~75 articles; Syncro holds
~3000 customers + 768 contacts. Match on **email domain** (customer `.email` AND
`GET /contacts` — a lead is often a contact under a differently-named customer record),
then normalized business name, then fuzzy. Domain matching found every real hit; name
fuzzing at <0.86 produced only false positives. Exclude free-mail domains from the map.
2. **Active vs former:** a Syncro record alone means nothing — many have zero tickets. Pull
ticket + invoice counts and max dates per matched customer. Recent invoices = ACTIVE
(exclude). Dormant = FORMER (keep on the list, flagged, as a warm re-approach).
3. **Exclude these five categories:**
- **IT/MSP competitors** — MSPs, IT consultancies, dev shops, ISPs, web/marketing-tech firms.
- **Orgs with in-house IT** — the tell is the contact's own title (Sr Systems Engineer, Network
Administrator, IT Coordinator), plus universities, federal labs, districts, utilities,
hospitals, large law firms, public companies.
- **Micro / consumer-facing shops** — salons, spas, restaurants/bars, fitness studios,
single-chair practices, small retail. Low seat count, low IT spend.
- **Healthcare / HIPAA-heavy** — providers, clinics, hospices, home care, surgery centers,
diagnostic labs. NOTE: medical *device manufacturers* and *distributors* are fine — they
are not covered entities. Keep those.
- **Not Arizona** — verify HQ, do not trust the row's city/state.
4. **`location_type` = "Remote" means the CONTACT is remote, not the company.** The row's
city/state is the contact's location. A Tucson company routinely shows a contact in another
state. Never drop for geography on that column alone — verify HQ (WebFetch the domain).
Flag them `remote_contact` so the setter knows onsite scheduling is harder.
5. **Check whether the file actually contains contact data.** These vendor exports often ship
as previews: `work_email`, `work_phone`, `mobile`, `street1`, `company_revenue`,
`company_employee_count`, `primary_industry` etc. hold the literal strings `Yes`/`No`
(= "we have this field"), not values. Say so before Mike pays a setting firm to work a
list with no phone numbers in it.
Output shape that worked: two CSVs in `~/Documents` — a tier-ranked `VETTED` call list
(A = priority, B = fits, C = qualify first) and an `EXCLUDED` list with a reason per row so
Mike can audit the cuts. See [[feedback-vault-every-credential]] for the unrelated-but-adjacent
rule on anything credential-shaped that surfaces in these files.
