Lead Gen & Outreach Platform for YouTube Creators

The user is asking for marketing advice for a tool targeting "medium to large YouTubers," specifically mentioning "scraping email addresses" as a potential strategy. This highlights a common pain point for businesses and individuals looking to connect with YouTubers and influencers: efficient discovery and outreach. A SaaS opportunity exists to provide a specialized lead generation and outreach platform tailored for the creator economy.

Product Form: A robust, searchable database of YouTube creators categorized by niche (e.g., gaming, beauty, tech, education), subscriber count, average views, engagement rate, and verified contact information (email, social media links). Key features could include: advanced filtering, list building, campaign management (e.g., email sequencing, message templates), analytics on outreach performance, and integration capabilities with existing CRM or marketing automation tools. Ethical data sourcing and GDPR/CCPA compliance would be crucial.

Target Audience: Brands, marketing agencies, other SaaS companies, content managers, and entrepreneurs who aim to collaborate with, promote products through, or sell services to YouTube creators and online influencers.

Expected Revenue: Revenue would typically be generated through tiered subscription models based on the level of access (e.g., number of contacts revealed per month, search queries, advanced analytics features, campaign limits). Monthly subscription fees could range from $49 for basic access to $499+ for enterprise-level features. Given the rapid growth of the creator economy and influencer marketing, a well-executed product could realistically achieve $200K - $1M+ in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) within 2-3 years, depending on market penetration and value provided.
