Finding Contact Information?

November 20, 2025

by a searcher from Lafayette College in Boston, MA, USA

Does anyone have access to strong contact information databases (such as ZoomInfo, or other sources) for pulling contact information for owners - mostly direct emails. I've pulled together a very targeted list of business owners for my search process and have mostly used an offshore team for contact information, which has a lot of resources and has been great. But there are still plenty of names with the redacted or redacted email addresses and I want to see if direct contact information can be found. Reply here and I'll send you a direct message.

Thanks for tagging me ^redacted‌. I suppose the answer very much depends on whether you just want an email address, or whether you want to enrich the dataset so you can also qualify your leads. If you have a budget, Zoominfo/Grata/SourceScrub/Apollo are probably your best bet. You could also try Cerco.ai, Inven (heard good things but have never use them). Either way you will want to double check emails before an email campaign with a service like ZeroBounce/NeverBounce/RocketReach to name a few (there are many more service providers out there). If you are on a budget, as Luke pointed out you can work with the Data Axle dataset... You should check LinkedIn... And obviously, you can leverage AI, and work in google sheets (=GPT{"... If you prefer to outsource list building, you could go to Fiverr/Upwork and look for VAs that have experience list building. It's inexpensive. You will obviously want to double check the output. Good luck!
