Decision Makers/Contacts
The Platinum Database contains some 3.75 million contact names and position titles. Our publisher partners’ cooperative relationships with the firms they profile allow them, on average, to receive:
- More contact names per business profile, and
- More mid and lower level management contacts (“key influencers”)
Compared to the leading mega compilers, our Contacts have:
- 34% more contacts, on average, per record
- 9% greater contact name accuracy
- 28% greater contact title accuracy
- Approximately 42% of the decision makers and contacts in the Platinum Database differ from those provided by mega compilers
Data Elements
Our profiles contain 15 core data elements plus dozens of specialty data fields. We break the core data elements into 3 categories: Communicative, Selective and Descriptive.

Communicative Data Elements
These are the most important. If they are incorrect, you can’t reach the listed business or the desired decision maker.
Selective Data Elements
These enable selection and sorting of target businesses.
Descriptive Data Elements
These data elements help you better understand each business that you have selected.
Specialty Data Fields
The Platinum Database also includes two types of specialty data fields: Non-industry specific and Industry Specific.

Industry-specific
Over 45+ fields in all, these data fields are not generally available in mega compiler databases.
