TL;DR

What did B2BFreelanceWriter use Claude for?

A B2B freelance writer wrote a Claude prompt that screens for good-fit SaaS companies to pitch and leaves out giants that hire in-house. The creator says the results were very accurate once the prompt was tuned. Each run returned only a few companies, so getting 10 to 20 meant running the prompt several times.

What they did

After a poor result with ChatGPT, the creator tried Claude to find prospects for B2B writing in the CRM software niche. The prompt describes good and bad clients, requires a blog and an online presence, asks for a contact person, and excludes big companies like HubSpot, which Claude listed before that rule was added. Claude returns each company's name, website and why it passed.

How it went

The creator says the results were very accurate once the prompt was tuned. Each run returned only a few companies, so getting 10 to 20 meant running the prompt several times.

Worth knowing

  • Each run gives only two or three companies. The creator says you need to know your ideal client well to judge whether the matches are right.
  • Price check: Claude: free plan; Pro: US$20/month, or US$17/month on a yearly plan (US$200/year) (checked Nov 1, 2026).
