“As prospecting efforts have evolved from mass-emailing to Account-Based Prospecting, there are often concerns from the sales teams that they don’t know what accounts to target – or that by not blasting out emails, we might be missing out on low-hanging fruit. DiscoverOrg’s OppAlerts has helped us identify accounts that we should be targeting in our prospecting efforts,” said Jeff Austin, xMatters Vice President of Sales Operations.

“We’ve already been relying on Company Surge Data™ from Bombora to deliver significantly warmer leads from emails and ads to our lead qualification reps.  Making the data available seamlessly in DiscoverOrg means that our outbound prospecting can be aligned to the same strategy,” noted Mike Ballard, Lenovo Senior Manager of Global Digital Marketing.
