Business Sales Leads

How to find business sales leads

With the advent of the Internet and the information age, finding business sales leads is both easier and harder. Information is much more readily available, but managing it and sorting the relevant from the irrelevant can consume a lot of time. Frequently, sales people will spend a great number of hours scouring the Internet looking for leads and business news. But their efforts can be unproductive since much of the critical information on potential sales prospecting and industry developments is not available on the free Web; plus, performing a comprehensive search of the thousands of proprietary information sources is prohibitively costly and time-consuming. That's why Dow Jones Companies & Executives, a cost-effective and highly productive solution for sales lead generation.
