Hi guys

i am not from USA or UK, but i am looking to target USA & UK clients to sell my stuff

my questions is- how can i get the phone numbers and what is the method you use to get the numbers of clients targeted to some specific product

i am new to offline marketing, but i can get a big telemarketing staff here of over 50, all i want to know is how to get database of unlimited numbers which we can call all day long without any issues.

thanks in advance.

    There are several services you could subscribe to.
    You could google it even.
    You could get people to send you phone books.

    The key really is finding the best method based on who you are targeting. What niche will you be going after? One of us may have a source for you. If not just google associations for that niche and see if they sell lists. Hell in the RV industry one magazine puts out the whole list to all their subscribers as a special issue.

    Are you looking for B2B or B2C? If it's B2B you can likely scrape the yellow pages or BBB website.

      It is going to be B2B

      do u think we can call these numbers found on yellow pages for selling our products without any legal issues?

      thanks

    If a number is publicly listed for a business you can call it.

      I often use INFOUSA because I can carefully target specific types of business by geo data, biz size, sales size, years in biz, etc.

      This data is also important to monitor your campaign, for example, if you are doing really well with biz of 5-10 employees but getting shut out of larger businesses, then you double your efforts where you are most effective.

      And you may find certain types of business make for better long term customers, for instance a chiropractor being a longer term web dev client than a realtor.

      When you buy a list with all the data about the biz, you can do micro targeting so your R.O.I. is high, versus just blanketing every biz with your efforts without really knowing the demographics, other than say you are targeting dentists.
