7,231 verified contacts — mix of MCA debtors identified via UCC filings (high intent: actively carrying stack debt) and MCA digital applicants (self-identified need). After dedup and email validation, 6,799 uploaded to Bison with one bad-format email dropped.

Variables cleaned and normalized: first names stripped of initials and trailing commas, company names stripped of legal suffixes, person-name companies converted to "your business". PS line personalizes with direct phone number (96% of list) or reply fallback (4%).

The SPARK framework is doing what it's supposed to here — E1-A leads with a specific, named case study (third generation pharmacy owner) that names the exact fear the list carries: stacked positions, daily debits, being told "no" by six lenders. It's not a pitch, it's a mirror. E1-B (magic wand) runs as an A/B to test whether curiosity-opener or story-opener pulls better reply rates — the data from this split will inform future RBS campaigns.

The PS line is the strongest personalization lever here: 96% of leads get a direct phone number reference, which turns a cold email into something that feels like a follow-up. The fallback (4% no-phone) maintains tone without breaking cadence.

One thing to watch: this list skews heavily UCC (debt-signal leads). E2's math hook ($40K–$80K/yr savings) is the right move for this audience — they're already aware of the cost, so quantifying it rather than explaining it hits differently than it would on a cold list.

Monitor reply rate at day 5 — A/B read
First meaningful read on E1-A vs E1-B (story vs. magic wand) after ~5 days of sends. If one variant is pulling 2×+ replies, kill the underperformer. Reply scoring via gtm-orchestrator score-replies.
