Small Business Lead List: 9K Verified, 3K New Owner Contacts

Overview

The client needed to strengthen its lead generation process by building a comprehensive database of small business contacts across the USA. The project focused on both validating existing leads and finding additional contacts within target companies.

We researched decision-makers such as owners and co-founders and verified their contact information to ensure the database was accurate and up to date. The result was a more reliable contact base for targeted outreach and business development.

The challenge

Outdated lead lists — existing contact lists often contained outdated information and lacked proper validation, making outreach less efficient.
Hard-to-reach decision-makers — identifying owners and co-founders within small businesses was difficult due to limited and incomplete contact data.
Unreliable contact information — inaccurate or outdated details made it harder to connect with relevant prospects and reduced the efficiency of outreach.

What we did

1 Validated existing leads — reviewed existing lead lists to check contact information for accuracy and reliability.
2 Found targeted contacts — researched additional leads, focusing on decision-makers such as owners and co-founders.
3 Sourced contact details — used web scraping, database searches, and manual research to collect relevant lead information, including emails and phone numbers.
4 Verified contact data — checked acquired information to maintain data accuracy and integrity across the contact database.

Results

9,000 contacts verified — improving the accuracy and reliability of the client's existing lead database.
3,000 new contacts found — expanding the pool of prospects available for targeted outreach.
More accurate contact data — giving the client up-to-date information for reaching relevant prospects.
More targeted lead generation — making it easier to identify and engage decision-makers within small businesses.
