Claude Prompt: Find IT Directors at Agencies

Paste one prompt into Claude with LeadOcean connected and get a sized list of agency IT directors before you spend a single record. Connect the server at https://api.leadocean.io/mcp first. Setup is on the MCP page.

The prompt

Find IT directors at marketing and advertising agencies in the United States.
1. Call leadocean_list_enum_values for industry and pick the marketing
   and advertising agency values.
2. Call leadocean_count_leads with jobFunction Information Technology,
   jobLevel Director, those industries and country US.
3. Tell me the count and the filters you used.
4. Do not call leadocean_search_leads until I say go.

What it resolves to

"Agency" is not an industry value, so the prompt maps it to the three marketing and advertising strings. Enum values are exact strings, which is why step 1 looks them up. Advertising Services holds most of the matches: 1,001 of the 1,217 below.

How many match

1,217 mailable people matched on 2 October 2026. Filters: jobFunction Information Technology, jobLevel Director, industry Advertising Services, Marketing Services or Marketing and Advertising, country US.

Mailable means verified, catch_all_valid or catch_all, the count_leads default. The count is free. The facets show 278 sit at companies with 51-200 employees and 239 at 11-50. An IT director at a 150-person agency buys differently from one at a 10,000-person network, so set employeeRange before you write copy.

What you get back

Search rows carry the fields below. These are placeholder values, not real records.

Variations

• Add "only companies with employeeRange 51-200 and 201-500" to focus on agencies large enough to run an IT function.
• Swap jobLevel Director for VP to reach heads of technology at larger agencies.
• Change country to GB and ask Claude to count again before searching.

Records it spends

The count and enum lookups are free. leadocean_search_leads costs 1 record per person returned, so a limit of 25 costs 25 records. Free gives you 1,000 records one-off with no card. Pro is $499 a month. See pricing.
