Building a Predictable Pipeline

 Why It Matters
Strong businesses aren’t fueled by luck—they run on systems. The most important system? A predictable way to bring in new leads. The foundation of that system is your ICP (Ideal Customer Profile): the clear picture of who your best customers are so you stop wasting energy chasing the wrong ones.

What’s an ICP, really?
Think of it as your business bullseye. An ICP usually includes three parts:
 Basic Facts: age, gender, income, location
 Business Snapshot: what industry they’re in, company size, revenue range
 Mindset & Habits: their values, pain points, what drives them to buy, how they make decisions

Example ICP
For a SaaS startup targeting accountants:
– Mid-size accounting firms (10–50 employees)
– Located in North America
– Revenue between $1M–$10M
– Struggle: too much admin work
– Decision makers: partners who value efficiency and want tools to save staff time

With this clarity, you instantly know where to market, what to say, and who not to chase.

The System

✔ Identify 3–5 lead sources where your ICP naturally hangs out (events, referrals, partnerships, ads, social)
✔ Create a “Daily Lead Ritual” (20 minutes of consistent outreach or follow-up)
✔ Use AI to draft first-touch messages that sound human and relevant
✔ Track every contact in a simple CRM or spreadsheet, with AI reminders to follow up
