2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

analyzing the third party unstructured text information to generate the fitness characteristics of the plurality of target clients.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein crawling the plurality of web pages, hyperlinks, and link structures further comprises:

traversing a target client website to collect target client unstructured text information;

categorizing the target company website pages into one or more categories; and

analyzing the target client unstructured text information per each of the one or more categories; and

extracting target company fitness information.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 3 , further comprising adjusting parameters of the crawling based on automated machine learning of the target client unstructured text information.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 4 , further comprising presenting a plurality of leads with the recommendations of engagement.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , further comprising: determining predictive values of one more feature of the features matrix; determining a regularization function based on the feature matrix;

adjusting feature weights based on the regularization function; and

applying the adjusted regularization function to an objective function to generate a new objective function.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 6 , further comprising optimizing the new objective function.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising traversing, using one or more application programming interfaces, a plurality of the entity's internal data sources to generate the fitness characteristics of the entity's existing clients.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , further comprising:

determining various engagement characteristics of the plurality of the entity's existing clients based on analysis of data collected by the application programming interfaces.

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein presenting the plurality of leads with the recommendations of engagement further comprises presenting the plurality of leads with the recommendations of engagement using a graphical user interface (GUI) at an application layer of a leads management system.

11. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , wherein the recommendations of engagement of the target client is an observed purchasing pattern of the target client determined based on analysis of the publicly available unstructured text related to the target client.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the intent characteristic of the target client is based on a publicly available browsing behavior of one or more employees of the target client.

13. A physical article of manufacture including one or more devices encoding computer-executable instructions for executing on a computer system a computer process, the computer process comprising:

generating recommendations for engagement with a plurality of target clients, wherein components of the recommendations for engagement are based on determined similarities between (a) a fitness, engagement, and intent characteristics of the plurality of target clients and (b) a fitness, engagement, and intent characteristics of an entity's existing clients;

generating a feature matrix for the target client and comparing one or more value of the feature matrix of the target client with one or more values of a feature matrix for the entity's existing clients to generate the recommendations of engagement;

categorizing a plurality of web pages, hyperlinks, and link structures located over the Internet using a trained classifier that uses features from content and code on web pages;

crawling, by a computer, the plurality of web pages, hyperlinks, and link structures based on the categorization of the plurality of web pages, hyperlinks, and link structures to collect third party unstructured text information.

14. The physical article of manufacture of claim 13 , wherein the computer process further comprising analyzing the third party unstructured text information to generate the fitness characteristics of the plurality of target clients.
