Why Did My Campaign Stop Adding New Leads?

I forgot to turn on the "Add fresh leads daily" toggle

This toggle is off by default when you create a campaign. If you didn't enable it at launch, the campaign contacts the leads it was given once — and stops.

How to fix it:

1. Open your campaign

2. Click Edit

3. Scroll to the Lead Source section

4. Enable the "Add fresh leads daily" toggle

5. Click Save

✅ AiSDR will now search for new matching leads on an ongoing basis and add them to your campaign automatically.

💡 Good to know: This toggle only works when the campaign is Active. If your campaign is in Draft, enable the toggle and launch the campaign — new leads will start flowing once it's live.

I see a message saying the search was paused for 3 days

This is expected behavior, not a bug. When AiSDR has searched through the available database and temporarily can't find new leads that match your filters, it shows this notification:

"The continuous search has no new results and will be paused for 3 days. Please update search filters to start a new search sooner."

The search resumes automatically after 3 days. You don't need to do anything — but if you want to restart it sooner:

How to restart the search early (ONLY if it's too narrow and didn't get results after 5 days):

1. Open your campaign → Add leads

2. Make a small adjustment to any filter (e.g., add one more job title, slightly expand the geography, or remove one filter)

3. Search for new leads

4. Select "Аdd fresh leads daily"

5. Add new leads to the campaign and update filters.

✅ The change signals a fresh search, and AiSDR will start pulling new leads again immediately

My filters are too narrow and there aren't enough leads to find

If your campaign has been running for a while but the lead count is low and growth is slow, the search might be exhausting your audience faster than expected. Very specific filter combinations — like a narrow revenue range, a specific technology stack, and a tight geography — can reduce your addressable pool to a few hundred leads total. For the best search results, use criteria that can be clearly identified and verified through publicly available online information.

How to diagnose it:

1. Open your campaign

2. Go to the Query section

3. Check your search query and identify which filter is most likely limiting your lead search.

How to fix it:

1. Click "Add leads"

2. Remove or broaden the filter that is narrowing your search the most.

3. If you're using a Revenue filter, try removing it — revenue data is often incomplete and cuts out valid prospects

4. If you're using specific Technology filters, consider whether they're truly required or just nice-to-have

5. Test new search

6. Select "Add fresh leads daily"

7. Add new leads to the campaign.

✨If you used Live AI Search, you’ll see a match rate % next to each filter in the Live AI filters section.

This percentage shows how much each filter narrows your audience. A filter with a 5–20% match rate can significantly limit the number of leads available in your search.

How to fix it:

1. Click "Add leads"

2. Remove or broaden the filter with the lowest match rate first

3. Test new search (check the percentage)

4. Select "Add fresh leads daily"

5. Add new leads to the campaign.

✅ Your addressable pool will expand and add fresh leads search will find new leads again.

📄 How to Improve Your Lead Search Results

My campaign is still in Draft — I never launched it

Add fresh leads daily only runs on Active campaigns. If your campaign is in Draft status, it won't add leads regardless of your toggle settings. This is the most common cause for new campaigns.

How to fix it:

1. Open your campaign

2. Confirm the campaign settings look correct

3. Check if you turn on the "Add fresh leads daily" toggle

4. Click Launch campaign to move it from Draft to Active status

✅ Once the campaign is Active and Add fresh leads daily is enabled, new leads will start being added to your campaign automatically.
