Conversations with the businesses you actually want.
We research companies that fit your ideal customer, find the decision-maker, verify their exact mailbox, and write outreach from real facts about their business. Take the list and send it yourself, or let us run it so you only take the calls.
Harbor Point Dental Group
Most outbound breaks in one of three places.
Bought lists bounce, generic emails get ignored, and the people who could do it well are busy running the business. We fix all three.
Bad data
Purchased lists are stale and full of role inboxes. Bounces hurt your sending reputation and waste every email after them.
Generic messages
"Hope this finds you well" emails get deleted. Owners reply to messages that show you actually know their business.
No time
Founders sell and deliver. Prospecting is the first thing to slip, so the pipeline goes dry right after a busy month.
From "who do you want?" to booked conversations.
Everything happens by email. Most clients spend under 30 minutes getting started.
Define your target
You tell us the customers you want (industry, size, area) and what you sell. We confirm the profile in writing.
Day 1Research & verify
We find matching companies from their own websites and public records, identify a named decision-maker, and verify the exact mailbox.
Ongoing, weekly batchesWrite & send
Each email is written from that company's facts. Pilot: you send. Done-for-you: we send from a warmed-up domain in your name, on business days only.
Week 1 onwardReplies & calls
Interested replies get your calendar link; opt-outs are removed for good. You get a weekly report of what was sent and what came back.
Every weekSimple, published pricing.
Start with a pilot to see the quality, or have us run outreach end to end. No hidden fees, no annual contracts.

- Sources plus a fit note explaining why each was chosen
- A ready-to-send intro email written for every account

We run your outbound
- New accounts researched and verified every month

Founding Partner pricing is for our first five done-for-you clients and is locked for 12 months. A qualified meeting is a call that actually takes place with a decision-maker at a company matching your agreed profile. No-shows and out-of-profile calls are never billed. Meeting fees are added to the next monthly invoice after you've seen the list.

Subject: Your new Harbor Point office Hi Jane, Congratulations on opening the new office this year. A third location usually means the network, phones and security cameras need to be ready before patients arrive, and that's the part we handle for practices around Charleston. Would a short call next week be useful? [Your name] [Your company]
And every week (done-for-you), a plain report

Built to protect your reputation.
Outbound only works if your emails land in the inbox and your brand stays clean. These rules are built into how we work, not optional extras.
Separate sending domain
Done-for-you outreach goes from a dedicated domain in your name (for example getyourcompany.com), so your main domain and everyday email are never put at risk.
Authenticated & warmed up
SPF, DKIM and DMARC are set up before anything sends. Volume starts at 5 a day and grows slowly, during business hours only, spaced minutes apart.
Automatic brakes
If bounces rise, sending pauses until the cause is fixed. A send with an uncertain result is never retried blindly, so no one gets a duplicate.
Opt-outs, instantly
Every email includes a clear way to opt out and a physical address. Anyone who opts out is never contacted again, by us or for you.
US commercial email rules
Every message identifies the sender honestly, with no misleading subject lines and no fake "Re:" threads, following the CAN-SPAM Act.
Your data stays yours
Your prospect lists, replies and results belong to you, and we never sell them.
Hi, I'm Cooper.
"I built Fleckenstein Data because the best service companies I talked to all had the same problem: great work, no time to find the next client. So I built the research engine I wished they had, and I personally review the accounts and emails before anything goes out."
Researched for your industry.
Every list is built around who you sell to. See what we look for in your market:
Questions founders ask.
Who is this for?
B2B service companies that win clients by talking to business owners or managers: managed IT and cybersecurity providers, cabling and security integrators, commercial contractors, marketing and web agencies, staffing firms, accounting firms and commercial insurance agencies. If one new client is worth several thousand dollars to you, the math usually works.
Where do the leads come from? Are these scraped lists?
No purchased or mass-scraped lists. We find companies that match your profile, then research each one from its own website and public records. Every account comes with the sources we used and a note on why it fits.
How do you know the email addresses are real?
We identify a named decision-maker (owner, president, managing director and similar) and verify the exact mailbox with an email verification service before the account reaches you. Catch-all domains and anything we can't verify are left out rather than guessed.
Are these people ready to buy?
Honestly, no one can promise that. These are researched companies that fit your profile, each with a real reason to reach out. That's what makes owners reply. We never claim a prospect is "in the market" when we don't know it.
Will this hurt my email domain?
Not with done-for-you: we send from a separate domain in your company's name, authenticated and warmed up slowly, with automatic brakes on bounces. Your main domain and everyday email stay untouched. With the pilot you send yourself, and we'll share how to do it safely.
What exactly is a "qualified meeting"?
A call that actually takes place with a decision-maker at a company matching the profile we agreed on. No-shows, cancellations and out-of-profile calls are not billed. You see the list of meetings before they're added to your next monthly invoice.
What do I need to provide?
A description of the customers you want and where, what you sell, and (for done-for-you) a calendar link. For done-for-you we also set up a sending domain and mailbox in your company's name; we walk you through it, about 30 minutes of your time.
How fast will I see results?
Pilot: your first batch of 10 accounts typically arrives within the first week. Done-for-you: sending starts after a short warm-up, ramping from 5 emails a day, so replies typically build over the first few weeks. Results depend on your market and offer, and we'll be straight with you about what we see.
What if the accounts aren't a good fit?
Tell us after the first batch and we'll adjust the targeting; one revision is included in every pilot. That's also why the free five-account sample exists: you can judge the quality before paying anything.
Can I cancel?
The pilot is a one-time payment with nothing to cancel. Done-for-you has a two-month minimum so the warm-up has time to work; after that it's month to month.
Do you guarantee meetings or revenue?
No. Anyone who guarantees meetings from cold outreach is either charging for it somewhere else or cutting corners. Instead, you only pay meeting fees for real, held, qualified meetings, and the pilot lets you see the work first.
Which areas do you cover?
Businesses across the United States. You choose the territory: a city, a region, a set of states or nationwide.
How do payments work?
Securely by card through Stripe. Pilots are paid upfront; done-for-you is billed monthly, with any qualified-meeting fees added to the next invoice.
