Frequently Asked Questions

How many town halls can I export with the Free plan?

You have 200 free credits. Since 1 credit = 1 town hall, you can export 5,000 complete town halls. This is enough for an entire region or several departments. After that, you can switch to a paid plan or wait for your monthly credit renewal.

Are town hall emails up to date?

Yes. IBLead updates its database monthly by scraping the official Google Maps listings. When a town hall changes its email or phone number, the update is automatic. Unlike files purchased from brokers (often outdated after 6 months), you always have current data.

Can I filter by specific service (civil status, urban planning, etc.)?

Not directly by service. However, you can export all town halls in a region, then in your CRM or Excel, add a column to note the target service. You can also call the general town hall and ask to be transferred to the appropriate service.

Does the data include addresses of deputies or municipal councilors?

No. IBLead provides the main contact of the town hall (general number, general email). For specific contacts of deputies or councilors, check the town hall's website (often listed in your export) or call the main number.

Can I use these emails for cold emailing?

Yes, provided you comply with GDPR and CNIL rules. Town hall emails are public addresses (local authorities), so you can contact them. However: - Respect communication preferences (some town halls may request to unsubscribe) - Always include an unsubscribe link in your emails - Segment your lists to avoid spam (targeting by region, by service)

IBLead integrates with Lemlist, Instantly, and other cold emailing tools. Simply import your CSV and launch your campaign.

What is the best plan to prospect town halls?

It depends on your scope: - 1 department: Free plan (200 credits) - 2-3 regions: Starter plan (€44/month, 10,000 credits) - Entire France: Business plan (€179/month, 40,000 credits)

You can test for free with the Free plan. If you need more, switch to Starter. No commitment, you can change plans every month.
