Welcome to Getleado resource page.
Here you can find tools that are included in my personal marketing stack. Most of the tools I use for the years in my own companies and in consulting projects. I didn't add evident and well-known tools like Google Analytics, WordPress, that many companies use by default.
I created different sections as lead generation, marketing automation, conversion, content marketing, etc. to simplify your navigation and allow you to find the necessary tool.
Marketing Automation
ACTIVE CAMPAIGN
When it comes to marketing automation and email marketing, Active Campaign is my go-to tool.
Active Campaign is a tag-based system with awesome drag'n'drop visual automation builder.
It allows you to:
- Dynamic content depending on behavior and tags
- Create multiple web forms and lists
- Apply lead scoring and create numerous lead nurturing campaigns
- Install website tracking and send campaigns based on website activity
- Add and remove subscribers from the Facebook custom audience
- Send SMS
Highly recommended for every B2B marketing organization who is looking for cheaper alternative to HubSpot.
CRM
ACTIVE CAMPAIGN
An additional feature which I love in Active Campaign is an inbuilt CRM which allows you to track and keep all leads data in one place.
This makes Active Campaign a robust solution for sales and marketing teams of SMB.
CRM allows to:
- Create a sales automation process, unique pipelines, sales stages and tasks
- Integrate it with 3rd-party tools
- Check the social and behavioral data of every lead in the contact profile
- Track your sales process and get comprehensive reports
- Easily connect with Gmail, Outlook, or any other email provider
Lead Generation
Albacross
I use Albacross for my own business and my clients. As we run ABM campaigns, it is mandatory to know what accounts engaged with the ads and visited website. Albacross successfully solves this challenge.
I checked and compared several services, and the Albacross's accuracy was the most precise. You can also see the contacts for some accounts so you can add them to CRM. The most significant benefit is a possibility to add the target company to the Account Based Ad campaign with 1 click.
Albacross great feature:
- Identifying companies that visited your website
- Segmenting and filtering accounts based on the industry, country, revenue, and team size
- Running account-based advertising
- Integration with CRM and cold outreach tools
Voila Norbert
Voila Norbert was elected the most accurate email finder out there according to ahrefs. Whether you’re trying to reach out to influencers, build marketing connections or reach potential recruits, Norbert’s got you covered. They give you 50 leads for free to test out the tool.
Voila Norbert has such feature as:

- Email verifier to check the deliverability of any email address
- Schedule emails, follow-up automatically, set reminders with Norbert Inbox Chrome extension.
- Enrich your email lists with valuable data such as current job title, employer, location and social networks of the person
One of my favorite tools when it comes to target prospecting.
UpLead
UpLead is a high-quality database of contacts where you can find target leads from different countries, industries, job positions, etc.
UpLead team index 40 billion web pages and a team of manual researches make updates to the database daily.
The database also improves as users use it. So if you'll find invalid contact, UpLead won't take credit from your account. As well, their research team will receive notification and update contact manually.

Business Optimization
PieSync
PieSync is a synchronization app that has intelligent 2-way sync between connected apps.
It is very similar to Zapier which I actually also use, but Zapier only pushes data from one app to the other.
PieSync constantly monitors the records in both web apps, and when it detects changes, it updates the data in the other app too, keeping everything in sync.
Very useful to avoid manual labor and sync the data in your marketing stack. Especially great for Marketing and Sales alignment.
