The Scenario
Your manager forwarded you an Excel workbook this morning with 200 target contacts — names, companies, job titles, no emails. The sales campaign kicks off Friday and the sequence needs to be loaded into Outreach by Thursday afternoon, which means verified emails in every row by end of Wednesday.
You open the workbook and stare at column C. Empty down the entire page.
The bad version:
- Open RocketReach, search the first name and company, find the profile, copy the verified email, switch back to Excel, find the right row, paste it. Repeat.
- Row 40: the search returns two people with the same name at the same company. You guess. You move on. You know you'll have to come back.
- Row 80: you've been at this for two hours and you're not halfway done. You realize you also need to export this to Outreach before you leave today.
You are supposed to be a sales development rep, not a data entry contractor. The emails aren't the job — the emails are what you need so you can do the job.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Excel workbook. It reads your data and talks to RocketReach directly, so you don't have to touch each row yourself. Open the SheetXAI sidebar, then watch the demo:
Here is the prompt for this task:
Enrich all 200 rows in my outreach sheet — name in column A, company in column B — with the RocketReach verified email address written to column C
What You Get
- Column C fills with the verified primary work email for each contact RocketReach found.
- Rows where RocketReach returned no match are left blank or flagged with "No result" so you know which ones need manual follow-up.
- The enrichment runs across all 200 rows in one pass.
- The rest of your columns are untouched.
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
The company name is abbreviated or inconsistent
If your workbook has "SFDC" instead of "Salesforce" or "McKinsey & Co" instead of the full legal name, RocketReach might miss the match.
For each row in the outreach sheet, look up the person using the name in column A and company in column B — if the company name looks like an abbreviation or acronym, try expanding it before searching RocketReach, and note any that still returned no match in column D
Some rows are missing the company name
For each row where column B is blank, search RocketReach using only the name in column A and the domain in column E if available — write the best match email to column C and flag confidence as low in column D
You want to pull the name from a combined full-name column
My workbook has full names in column A formatted as "First Last" — split each into first and last name, search RocketReach using each first name, last name, and company from column B, and write the verified email to column C
Clean the list, enrich, and score in one shot
Trim any extra whitespace from names in column A and companies in column B — then look up each person in RocketReach and write the verified email to column C — if the email domain matches the company domain in column B, mark column D as Verified Match; if not, mark it as Domain Mismatch
The pattern is to combine the cleanup and the enrichment in a single ask rather than running two separate passes.
