n8n Crowdfunding Lead Scoring: Sheets + AI + Lemlist

Turn Crowdfunding Leads into Prioritized Outreach Targets (Sheets + AI + Lemlist)

This n8n workflow automatically researches crowdfunding campaign prospects from your Google Sheets, enriches contacts with Lemlist, verifies emails, and then assigns each lead a 0–100 score with a TOP/HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW priority label—so your team knows exactly who to contact first.

What this workflow does

Daily lead research run (1am):

• Reads unresearched rows from the Google Sheets “Leads” tab and processes each product one at a time.
• Scrapes the campaign page using Firecrawl, cleans the markdown, and uses DeepSeek to extract key campaign details (e.g., amount raised, backers, campaign dates).
• Runs a LangChain research agent (DeepSeek with OpenAI fallback) to research the company and decision maker, using Jina AI, Perplexity, and Hunter as needed.
• Extracts structured contact signals (name, LinkedIn, domain), enriches the person in Lemlist to find/verify email and phone, then retrieves the enrichment results after waiting.
• Combines research + Lemlist into a fixed schema (including converting non-USD amounts via a currency conversion API), verifies the email when present using QuickEmailVerification, and updates the matching row in Google Sheets.
• Appends a summary row to Google Sheets → “Dashboard & Reports”.

Daily scoring run (5am):

• Reads enriched leads from the sheet and scores each lead using DeepSeek.
• Writes results back to Google Sheets: a 0–100 score and TOP/HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW priority, plus a scoring summary to “Dashboard & Report(s)”.

Use cases

• SaaS and agency teams qualifying crowdfunding leads for higher-conversion outreach.
• Automation engineers maintaining a “research → enrich → verify → score” pipeline in n8n.
