About signal-detection

A sales research skill that organizes 30 buying signals into reliability tiers and links detectable signals to ColdIQ marketplace endpoints. It guides signal stacking, freshness-based outreach timing, and message relevance.

Key features

  1. 01Organize 30 signals across six categories
  2. 02Rank signals by reliability and urgency
  3. 03Map detectable signals to ColdIQ endpoints
  4. 04Guide multi-signal prioritization and timing
  5. 05Apply a relevance test to outreach copy

Use cases

  1. 01Prioritize prospects after funding or hiring events
  2. 02Combine independent signals before high-effort outreach
  3. 03Time follow-up based on signal freshness

Install

Details

From the project README

Signal Detection

30 sales triggers across 6 categories, tiered by reliability, each mapped to the ColdIQ endpoint that surfaces it. Blend ≥2 independent signals before high-effort plays.

Where a signal is detectable, this skill routes it to a ColdIQ marketplace endpoint; the rest stay as research guidance.

Reliability tiers

  • Tier 1 — highest intent (same-day): Series A+ funding, expansion into new market, leadership change in the buyer's department. Budget approved or imminent. → GET /v1/signalbase/funding-signals · ? cr · signalbase.funding_signals (unverified)
  • Tier 2 — strong (30–90d): competitor tech adoption, partnership/acquisition, hiring surge (5+). → GET /v1/signalbase/hiring-signals · ? cr · signalbase.hiring_signals (unverified)
  • Tier 3 — moderate (nurture): 1–3 job postings, award/recognition, product launch. → GET /v1/predictleads/discover/job_openings · 0.18 cr · predictleads.discover.job_openings
  • Tier 4 — weak (context only): social activity, traffic spikes, general news. → POST /v1/serper/news · ? cr · serper.news (unverified)

The 30 triggers → where to source them

  • Funding & financial: Series A+ (signalbase.funding_signals), M&A (signalbase.acquisition_signals), financing events (predictleads.discover.financing_events).
  • Hiring & team: new exec / champion move (signalbase.job_change_signals), hiring surge (signalbase.hiring_signals), SDR/BDR or dept expansion (limadata.jobs, predictleads.discover.job_openings).
  • Technology & digital: new tech adoption / stack removal (predictleads.company.technology_detections), buying intent (theirstack.companies.buying_intents), running ads / launches (serper.news).
  • Competitive & vendor: competitor reviews / contract expiry / comparison shopping — no native endpoint; use serper.news / predictleads.discover.news_events as proxies.
  • Product & business events: geographic expansion, new office, partnership, regulatory change (predictleads.discover.news_events, serper.news).
  • Marketing & reputation: LinkedIn post engagement (limadata.posts.reactions), PR/media mention (serper.news).

Freshness windows (outreach timing)

Funding 90d (weeks 2–8) · Series C deployment 180d (weeks 5–12) · LinkedIn posts 30d (0–7d) · hiring 60d (14–30d) · new exec 90d (days 14–30) · tech change 60d (0–30d) · champion job change 30d (0–14d, fastest decay) · event attendance 21d (±7d).

Multi-signal stacking

  • T1 + T1 = white-glove (immediate): funding + hiring surge; new exec + tech removal; champion job change + ICP fit.
  • T2 + T2 = priority sequence: hiring (1–3) + LinkedIn engagement; competitor review + your pricing-page visit; industry-news impact + geographic expansion.
  • T3 = templated nurture.

"So what?" test for copy

Every signal you reference must be: recent, connected to your offer, something they'd care that you noticed, tied to a specific pain. Go deeper than the obvious — "hiring SDRs but no rev-ops lead yet" beats "you're hiring SDRs". Hand off to crawford-method for the actual opener.

Tips

  • Automate Tier 1 with same-day triggers (/v1/limadata/watch); batch Tier 3–4 weekly.
  • Cheapest source first: serper.news / predictleads.* (0.18) before 3-credit intent calls.
  • Track signal→meeting conversion, not detection volume.
