By Sparkforge Support Team ·Last reviewed May 3, 2026

Sparkforge Prospecting comes in Free and Premium tiers. Free runs at the agency level with capped reports. Premium ($29/mo) adds unlimited reports, AI lead discovery, SEO heatmaps, CRM outreach, and workflow automation.

Prospecting is Sparkforge's lead-discovery tool. It identifies businesses that match your target profile, runs marketing audits on them, and gives you a basis to pitch services. Two tiers exist: Free at the agency level, and Premium at $29/mo for full features.

What Free Prospecting includes

Free Prospecting lives at the agency level and is useful for testing the tool or running occasional audits.

  • 5 Premium Reports/month
  • 50 Basic Reports/day
  • Basic Report covers: Business Listings audit, basic Google Business Profile analysis, online reputation snapshot (reviews, ratings).

Free Prospecting is only available at the agency level, not in sub-accounts (sub-account access requires the agency to mark it an Agency Sub-Account on the $497 plan).

How to access Free Prospecting

  1. Go to your Agency Dashboard.
  2. Click Prospecting in the left sidebar.
  3. Click Continue with Free.

What Premium Prospecting adds

Premium is $29/mo and lifts the report caps while turning on the features that drive a real outbound program.

  • Unlimited reports per month.
  • Report refresh once per week on existing reports.
  • AI-powered lead discovery — qualified prospects delivered to your dashboard every few days based on target area and niche.
  • Website performance audits — speed, SEO, mobile-friendliness, with gaps identified to pitch.
  • Local SEO heatmaps — geographical visibility per keyword and top-ranking competitors per pin.
  • Lead generation widget — embed the audit on your site as a branded lead magnet.

Sub-account-only Premium features

These run only inside a sub-account, not at the agency level:

  • Send prospects into CRM, Opportunities, and Workflows.
  • Email and SMS outreach with AI-recommended message templates.
  • Workflow triggers for new prospects (auto-send welcome messages, save contact info, enroll in nurture sequences).

How to enable Premium

At the agency level

  1. Open the Prospecting tab.
  2. Click Unlock Premium or Upgrade Now.
  3. Complete payment and setup.

For one or more sub-accounts

  1. From the agency view, open the Reselling tab.
  2. Enable Prospecting for the sub-accounts.
  3. Set your resale price if applicable.
  4. Sub-accounts activate Premium from their own dashboards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do AI prospecting and CRM outreach run?
AI lead discovery runs at both levels, but CRM outreach (Contacts, Opportunities, SMS, Email, Workflow triggers) only runs inside a sub-account, not at the agency level.
Can I share Premium across multiple sub-accounts?
Each Premium subscription links to one sub-account. To cover multiple sub-accounts, each needs its own subscription or activation through the Reselling tab.
What is in a Basic Report?
Business Listings audit, basic Google Business Profile analysis, and an online reputation snapshot covering reviews and ratings.
Can I refresh existing reports on Premium?
Yes. Premium lets you refresh and regenerate any existing report once per week.
Can I use Premium audits on my own website?
Yes. Embed the lead generation widget on your site to offer the audit as a branded lead magnet, then route the captured prospect into your pipeline.
