How agencies, recruiters, exporters, and suppliers use Global Database to build faster, more reliable outbound pipelines.
Orbit Digital was spending 8–10 hours per week per account executive manually building prospect lists for new-business outreach, pulling names from LinkedIn one at a time and verifying emails by hand, a process too slow to scale alongside their growth targets.
The agency purchased the Marketing Database filtered to mid-size B2B companies across three target industries, combined with the CEO Database for a decision-maker layer, replacing manual list-building entirely.
Their team imported the verified list directly into their existing outreach tool, segmented by industry, and launched three parallel outbound sequences within the first week, instead of the usual month-long ramp-up.
New-business meetings booked increased 3x within the first quarter, while list-building time dropped from 8–10 hours to under 1 hour per week per account executive.
312% increase in booked new-business meetings within 90 days
"We went from spending most of a day per week just building lists to spending that time actually talking to prospects. The ROI was obvious within the first month."

TalentBridge, a boutique technical recruiting firm, was relying entirely on cold LinkedIn outreach to source both candidates and new client companies, response rates were under 3%, and sourcing new clients was inconsistent month to month.
The firm purchased the CTO Database to identify technology leaders at companies likely to be hiring, using company-size filters to prioritize outreach to mid-market technology companies matching their placement specialty.
TalentBridge's business development lead ran a structured 4-email outbound sequence to the CTO Database list, paired with a LinkedIn connection request, over a six-week period.
The CTO Database cut sourcing time in half and generated direct, warm conversations replacing cold LinkedIn outreach almost entirely for new client acquisition.
50% reduction in average sourcing time per placement
"As a boutique recruiting firm, the CTO Database cut our sourcing time in half. We went from cold LinkedIn outreach to warm, direct conversations."

Bluepeak, an HR tech SaaS startup, needed to reach HR Directors at mid-market companies to fill their sales pipeline, but their existing CRM was full of outdated contacts inherited from a previous data vendor with bounce rates exceeding 20%.
Bluepeak replaced their stale vendor list with the HR Database, filtered to companies with 100–1,000 employees across their target verticals, and integrated it directly into their CRM via CSV import.
The sales team launched a fresh outbound motion targeting the newly imported HR Director contacts, running a 5-touch sequence over three weeks with personalized messaging by industry vertical.
Bounce rates dropped from over 20% to under 4%, and the team booked their strongest pipeline-generation quarter to date.
80% reduction in email bounce rate; strongest quarterly pipeline on record
"Our previous data vendor's list was actively hurting our sender reputation. Switching to Global Database fixed our deliverability and our pipeline in the same quarter."

Harborview, a mid-size manufacturing exporter, wanted to expand distribution into new European markets but had no local presence or existing relationships to identify credible distributors and buyers in each target country.
The company purchased a custom manufacturing distributor database spanning five European countries, scoped through the Custom Database service to their specific product category.
Harborview's export manager used the verified distributor list to run a direct outreach campaign in each country, prioritizing companies with import/distribution experience in adjacent product categories.
The custom manufacturing database helped identify distributors across Europe in a fraction of the time their old research process took, leading to three new distribution partnerships within the first two quarters.
3 new distribution partnerships signed within 6 months
"The custom manufacturing database helped us identify distributors across Europe in a fraction of the time our old research process took."

Clearwater, a medical device supplier, struggled to reach procurement directors and clinical leadership at hospitals and private practices directly, most outreach was getting filtered by general practice front-desk staff before ever reaching a decision-maker.
The company purchased the USA Healthcare Database, filtered to hospitals and mid-size practices, giving them direct verified contacts for administrators and procurement leads instead of general practice inboxes.
Clearwater's sales team ran a targeted outbound campaign directly to procurement directors and CMOs, referencing specific equipment categories relevant to each practice type.
The database generated over 150 qualified meetings within three months, with data quality that exceeded the team's expectations relative to previous data sources.
150+ qualified meetings generated within 3 months
"We purchased the USA Healthcare Database and generated over 150 qualified meetings within three months. The data quality exceeded our expectations."

Northgate, a structural steel supplier, wanted to expand into new US states but had no efficient way to identify construction companies and general contractors actively operating in each target region.
The company purchased a state-filtered segment of the USA Manufacturing/Construction database, prioritizing general contractors and structural engineering firms in three target states.
Northgate's regional sales reps used the verified contact list to run territory-specific outreach, coordinating with each state's list to avoid overlap between reps.
The team was able to prioritize outreach to specific state markets instead of buying a bloated national list, saving both budget and ramp-up time on their regional expansion.
Full 3-state expansion outreach launched within 2 weeks of purchase
"Being able to filter by state instead of buying a national list saved us both money and time on our expansion."

Cedar Grove, a commercial real estate brokerage, needed to identify business owners and companies actively expanding their physical footprint, but had no systematic way to prioritize outreach beyond referrals and inbound inquiries.
The firm purchased the Real Estate Business Database combined with company-size filters, targeting mid-size companies likely to be in a growth or relocation phase.
Cedar Grove's brokers used the list to run a quarterly outbound campaign to business owners in their target segments, offering a free space-needs consultation as the initial hook.
The firm generated a consistent stream of qualified leasing conversations each quarter, supplementing their previously referral-dependent pipeline with a repeatable outbound channel.
Consistent quarterly lead flow added alongside existing referral pipeline
"Having a repeatable, verified list to work from each quarter took the guesswork out of our outbound, it's now a core part of how we prospect."
