Prerequisites
- ✓ A Telegram account (6+ months old, in relevant groups)
- ✓ 24GO account (free trial available)
- ✓ Knowledge of which groups your target audience uses
Step-by-Step Guide
1
Discover relevant groups
Go to Groups → Discover. Enter your niche keywords (e.g., 'real estate Phuket', 'SaaS founders'). 24GO finds public Telegram groups matching your criteria with member counts and activity levels.
2
Add groups to monitoring
Click 'Add' on the groups you want to scrape. 24GO automatically joins public groups and starts monitoring messages for buying signals.
3
Configure intent detection
Go to Settings → Lead Rules. Set keywords that indicate buying intent: 'price', 'cost', 'how much', 'looking for', 'need help with'. 24GO's AI also detects intent from context.
4
Run initial scrape
Go to Targets → Scrape Comments. Enter a post URL from the group. 24GO extracts all commenters with their profiles, messages, and intent scores.
5
Review and qualify leads
Go to Leads → filter by intent (HOT, WARM, COLD). Review the AI classification. Adjust rules if needed. Export leads or start automated outreach.
6
Set up continuous monitoring
Enable the Group Scanner for continuous monitoring. New messages are analyzed in real-time. Hot leads trigger instant auto-replies or CRM sync.
Common Mistakes
- ⚠ Scraping private groups without permission — only scrape public groups you're a member of
- ⚠ Ignoring group rules — some groups prohibit outreach. Respect the community.
- ⚠ Scraping too aggressively — slow and steady wins. High volume triggers Telegram limits.
- ⚠ Not personalizing messages — copy-paste templates get ignored and reported
- ⚠ Skipping the warmup phase — new accounts need 1-2 weeks of normal activity first
Expected Results
- ✓ Qualified leads with contact info and intent scores
- ✓ Real-time monitoring — new leads captured within minutes
- ✓ Automated lead enrichment — profile data, activity history, group context
- ✓ Direct pipeline to CRM or automated outreach sequences
