When Dealmayker is a Better Alternative to LinkedIn Sales Navigator
Your ICP can't be captured by boolean searches
When your ideal customers use diverse job titles or your value prop targets specific pain points rather than demographics, semantic understanding beats keyword filtering. Dealmayker finds prospects based on context and fit even if they describe themselves differently than your search terms.
You're spending too much time on manual research
If you're clicking through dozens of Sales Navigator profiles trying to figure out who's actually a good fit, you're wasting hours that could be spent selling. Dealmayker qualifies 100 leads in 2 minutes with fit scores, buying signals, and conversation starters—research that would take you days manually.
You need deeper intent signals than job changes
When knowing someone changed jobs isn't enough to tell you they're ready to buy, you need signals that indicate actual buying intent. Dealmayker monitors hiring patterns for specific pain points, funding rounds, product launches, and competitive moves that create urgency—not just profile updates.
Do less busywork. Close more deals.
Dealmayker turns your ICP, leads, and accounts into daily activation insights - who to talk to, what to say, and why they’re ready now.

Or use Dealmayker to discover leads, then connect on LinkedIn via Sales Navigator.
How does semantic search compare to Sales Navigator's boolean filters?
