Here's my problem. I am doing a direct mailer and have address, and phone numbers for targets. However, what is a SCALEABLE way of getting owner names to match. Anyone know of a service like this?

EDIT MESSED UP TITLE - multi tasking.

    Hi there,

    How are the owner names stored? How is the phone/address information stored?

    All the best,

    Sasha.

    Manta sometimes has them , accuracy is questionable though, some lead scraper software can get them if they're on the sites in the right format, else call up and get the right persons name

      Hey all, thanks for your responses. It was a rushed question. I am targeting a specific group of retailers that feature themselves - along with address on something similar to a "directory site." So, getting the business name, address, and phone number is obviously easy.

      I want to start shipping out direct mail pieces soon and don't want to write "Owner" on the envelope.

      I actually found a moderately reasonable solution. Hoovers will provide this as a service for 50 cents per record. Being that my lead gen will come from direct mail, it's positive ROI.

      It took me FOREVER to explain and re-explain to the guy at Hoovers who wasn't listening - rather trying to sell me stuff I didn't need, to get this info.

      Tuck this away into Evernote!

      I spent 10 minutes clicking and clicking on things to get no where. Pricing isn't published, there is no support number, is this free? Usually anything free is a royal pain in the end.

        I recognize that name, they used to sell cd's in office depo
        and places like that.

        They might still ... worth a drive or a quick call to find out.
