Why LGM can’t identify the gender of some of my leads?

Automate but keep it personalized

How a lead’s gender is identified?

We compare and match the lead’s first name in a huge database > GenderAPI that will tell the gender of that specific first name.


3 situations can prevent LGM from finding and telling the right gender :

  • Some people reverse their first name and last name on Linkedin. So we’ll test the family name and won’t be able to find it in the database.

  • Unisex first names like Charlie or Camille for instance.

  • Non common first name that we don’t have in our database.

If you have doubts about your audience, play safe and use first names instead of Gender + Last Name, or enrich your audience and fill up manually leads that are missing a gender.
