By monitoring messages in different Slack communities you may find leads according to your needs. Because it is not an easy process when done manually, it is much better to automate it with appropriate software such as Leadguru. Leadguru is an Automated Social Selling platform that is designed to monitor messages in Slack workspaces to find the most appropriate leads.
