Write the buyer the way you'd describe them to a new rep. "B2B companies that hired a new CRO in the last 60 days and have opened SDR roles since." No filter stack, no saved-account list required.
Every query runs against the internet as it is today, not a stored list. Jesse returns companies showing the trigger, with the page it found it on and the date it was posted, including companies not on any list you own.
Pick the sales or marketing leader who owns the budget, enrich an email for 5 credits, and push the list to your CRM or sequencer via API, MCP, or n8n.
Every prompt below is ready to run from the prompt gallery.
| Prompt | Who it finds |
|---|---|
| Find me 100 companies actively building an outbound sales team | Teams choosing prospecting, data, and sequencing tools now |
| Find me 100 companies hiring SDRs without a large sales team yet | First outbound motion, no incumbent tools |
| Find me 100 companies that recently hired a VP of Sales, CRO, or Head of Growth | New leaders with a 90-day plan and a budget |
| Find me 100 startups that just raised funding and are hiring GTM roles | Money and intent arriving together |

| Find me 100 companies with new leadership in sales or marketing | Directors and heads, not only VPs |
A VP of Sales exists at every funded company. Only some of them started last month. Jesse finds the ones where the trigger just fired, so your first line names the event: "saw you joined as CRO three weeks ago."
Apollo and Sales Navigator alert you about accounts you already saved. Jesse finds companies you didn't know to save, because it searches the whole live web for the trigger, not your list.
A new-CRO trigger is worth reaching out to in the first 30 days. Stored lists age from the day they're exported. Jesse has no list to refresh; each search reads the live web and every row carries a date.
"Raised in the last 90 days and hiring SDRs" is one query. Two triggers on the same company is a stronger signal than either alone, and you don't need a scoring table to find it.
ZoomInfo's org-chart tracking, intent topics, and compliance documentation are deeper for that job. Jesse is built for finding who's in-market this week, not for watching a fixed list.
Clay's tables do that. Jesse gives you the stacked query and the sources; the weighting is yours.
Sales trigger events are dated, observable changes at a company that signal a new need or budget: a funding round, a new VP of Sales, SDR hiring, a market expansion, a product launch. Every prompt on this page is one. They matter because they give you a true, specific reason to reach out now.
Type "Find me 100 companies that recently hired a VP of Sales, CRO, or Head of Growth." Jesse returns each company with the announcement, usually a LinkedIn post or press release, and the date. Reach out in the first 30 days, before the new leader's plan is set. The free plan covers about 100 searches.
Within two weeks for hires and funding, and within 30 days at the latest. New sales leaders set their stack in the first quarter; vendors who arrive later are fitting into decisions already made. Expansion and upmarket moves have longer windows. Re-run your search weekly so you catch triggers while they're fresh.
They answer different questions. Jesse finds companies showing a specific, verifiable event this week, with the source and date, including companies not in any list you own. ZoomInfo's intent data scores accounts by inferred research activity, which is broader but can't be pointed to. For monitoring named enterprise accounts at scale, ZoomInfo is stronger. For discovering in-market companies by event, Jesse is.
