What is a company contact list?

A company contact list is a tailored list of potential clients or partners, according to the Export.gov website. Several companies, such as Avention and ContactDB, sell pre-created lists or they create lists specifically for the client.

Company contact lists are more effective when they are targeted lists based on the organization's needs and topics of interest, states Avention. Targeted marketing lists lead to greater revenues when compared to general email lists.

Organizations can create their own databases, or they can utilize the services provided by Avention or ContactDB. Some available services include pay as you go lists or subscription packages, according to ContactDB.
