ZooInfo review from BDR perspective.
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I use it to identify the contact info for the right people at the right time. As a business developer, having the correct information to leverage at any time is crucial. Without it, you're blindly shooting in the dark, guessing what an email domain is, and trying to get through the gatekeeping operator.
Pros
- Integration is really important - the sidebar menu and synergy with sales nav is great.
- Providing timely updates on information to be able to have the right info.
- Having the direct dial number for some folks is very helpful.
Cons
- List the subsidiaries of companies, not only the parent company.
- An AI summary on the sidebar to guide you on what kind of titles/personas to target for your product.
Return on Investment
- Far more connected calls. I'd say at least a 15% increase in connected calls with the direct dial number, especially.
- I reduced my research time on a company by 20% since I could quickly view their annual revenue, industry, employee count, etc.
- It helps my reps find the correct numbers/emails for accounts we work on together.
