Best Practices

Read all about the prospects to identify high potential prospects based on their profile and other details.

You can use LinkedIn or the company website to identify the right team of people that will make a buying decision. Target multiple people in a company. Once you identify the people in a company, use a service to find their email address and contact information.
Create a list of companies and assign those companies to a particular salesperson or virtual sales assistant.
Create a tailored offering for each segment and content to get them interested.
Start emailing those you have in common and then expand to their team.
