How to Find Your Exact Leads Using Scravio

A complete guide to turning your ideal customer into the perfect search.

You already know who you want to reach. A fitness coach in LA. A marketing agency owner in the UK. A restaurant owner in Vietnam.

The question isn't "who" — it's "how do I find them?"

This guide shows you exactly how to turn your ideal customer into the perfect Scravio search. No guesswork. Just leads.

How Scravio Works: Two Types of Scraping

Scravio uses two different methods to find leads. Understanding this will help you choose the right approach.

Type 1: Profile-Based Scraping

Available on: Instagram (Followers, Following, Hashtag, Likers, Commenters)

How it works: Scravio scans public profiles and extracts emails from bios, about sections, and linked websites.

What you get:
  • Full profile information (name, username, bio, follower count, etc.)
  • Email (if publicly listed)
  • Profile URL

Email rate: 20-60% depending on your target audience. Not every profile has a public email — and that's normal. Coaches, agencies, and business owners tend to have higher rates because they want to be contacted.

Type 2: Keyword Scraping

Available on: All platforms (Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, TikTok, X)

How it works: Scravio searches for public content (posts, bios, descriptions) containing your keyword AND an email address. Only results with emails are returned.

Email rate: 100% — every result has an email because that's the filter.

What you get depends on the platform:

PlatformData included
YouTubeFull profile info + email
InstagramFull profile info + email
LinkedInEmail, post title, snippet, source URL
FacebookEmail, post title, snippet, source URL
TikTokEmail, post title, snippet, source URL
X (Twitter)Email, post title, snippet, source URL

Which Type Should You Use?

Your goalBest method
Full profile data for personalized outreachProfile-based (IG) or Keyword (YouTube/IG)
Maximum emails, less profile detailKeyword scraping (any platform)
Highest quality, engaged leadsProfile-based: Post Commenters or Likers
Fastest results with 100% email rateKeyword scraping

Before opening Scravio, answer three questions:

  1. 1. What do they do? (fitness coach, realtor, agency owner, recruiter, e-commerce founder...)
  2. 2. Where are they located? (US, UK, Vietnam, or anywhere)
  3. 3. Where are they most active? (Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, YouTube...)

That's it. Once you know this, finding them is just a matter of picking the right method.

Other Platforms: Keyword Scraping

For YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, TikTok, and X — Scravio uses keyword scraping only.

Enter a keyword → Scravio finds public content containing that keyword + an email.

Note

Remember: YouTube & Instagram keyword give you full profile info + email. LinkedIn, Facebook, TikTok, X give you email + post title + snippet + source URL.

How to Find the Right Keywords

This is where most people get stuck. Here's the formula:

Step 1: What Do They Call Themselves?

Not what you call them. What they write in their bio and posts.

You thinkThey write
"Personal trainers""Fitness coach", "Online trainer", "Transformation coach"
"Marketing agencies""Agency owner", "We help brands grow", "Full-service marketing"
"Real estate agents""Realtor", "Helping families find home", "Your local agent"
"Software developers""Full stack dev", "Building things", "Code & coffee"

Pro Tip

Go to Instagram or LinkedIn right now. Find 5 people who are your ideal customer. Read their bios and posts. Write down the exact words they use. Those are your keywords.

Example Instagram bio of a fitness coach with keywords highlighted - "personal trainer"

Step 2: For Profile-Based Scraping — Who Do They Follow?

Find 3-5 popular accounts in your target's industry. Scrape the followers.

Examples:

  • Fitness coaches follow: @fitnessbusinesspodcast, @onlinetraineracademy
  • Agency owners follow: @garyvee, @hormozi, @agencysavages
  • E-commerce founders follow: @shopify, @oberlo

Step 3: For Profile-Based Scraping — What Hashtags Do They Use?

Go to Instagram. Search a hashtag you think they use. Look at "Related hashtags."

Choose hashtags with 10k - 500k posts:

  • Too small (under 10k) = not enough leads
  • Too big (over 1M) = too broad, lots of spam

Using Country and Language Filters

Scravio lets you filter by country and language. These filters aren't 100% accurate, but they remove 80-90% of irrelevant leads.

Match Your Keyword to the Language

If you're targeting a non-English speaking country, use keywords in their language.

Think about it: A fitness coach in Vietnam doesn't write "fitness coach" in their bio. They write "HLV thể hình" or "PT cá nhân."

TargetCountryKeyword to use
Fitness coaches in VietnamVietnam"HLV", "PT", "gym", "thể hình"
Restaurants in FranceFrance"restaurant", "chef", "cuisine"
Marketing agencies in GermanyGermany"Agentur", "Marketing", "Werbeagentur"
Real estate in SpainSpain"inmobiliaria", "agente", "pisos"
Vietnamese market search with HLV thể hình keyword

Example search for Vietnamese market - showing "HLV thể hình" as keyword with Vietnam selected as country

Pro Tips for Better Results

1. Choose Method Based on Your Priority

PriorityBest method
Need full profile for personalized emailsProfile-based (IG) or Keyword (YouTube/IG)
Need maximum emails, fastKeyword scraping (any platform)
Need highest quality leadsProfile-based: Commenters or Likers

2. Run Multiple Small Campaigns

Don't scrape 10,000 leads from one source. Instead:

  • Run 5 campaigns × 2,000 leads from 5 different sources
  • Compare which source gives better results
  • Double down on what works

3. Profile-Based: Followers > Hashtags for Quality

Hashtags attract spam accounts. Followers of a reputable account are usually higher quality.

  • Need volume → hashtags
  • Need quality → followers

4. Profile-Based: Post Commenters = Hottest Leads

Someone who commented is more engaged than someone who just liked. They're already interested in the topic.

Find a viral post in your niche → scrape the commenters → warm leads.

5. For Profile-Based: Target People Who Want to Be Contacted

Some audiences have higher email rates:

Higher rates (40-70%)

  • Coaches, consultants
  • Agencies, freelancers
  • Business owners
  • Influencers, creators

Lower rates (10-30%)

  • Consumers
  • Employees
  • Students
  • Private individuals

6. Always Preview Before You Scale

Start with 100-200 leads. Check the results. If good, scale up. If not, adjust.
