Relationships and the ability to form them – not simply reams of contact information – matter more than ever for those charged with closing deals. Research has shown that more than 90 percent of executives never even respond to cold-call sales or unsolicited emails. At the same time, more than 80 percent do engage when referred by a connection – whether through a friend, colleague, customer or industry peer. InsideView People Insights uncovers and delivers such effective connections to sales professionals, empowering remarkably more intelligent sales work that drives sales productivity and revenue. "The biggest business impact comes from knowing how best to connect to prospects, what is top of mind for them and their business, and when you should pick up the phone."

Editor's Notes
- But Sales Intelligence is Not About Contact Data, As Many Vendors might Claim.Think about it...just because someone has your email address or phone number, does that entitle them to your time?When was the last time you agreed to meet with someone who only knew your name?According to a UNC Study, 92% of prospects never take a meeting from a cold-call or sales rep email.

- Sales Intelligence is a lot more than just contact data. It’s about connecting with the prospects through mutual connections (warm calls), knowing the right conversation starters (using the relevant news about the prospect’s company, their competitors, their industry), and building rapport with them.It’s about Finding/Connecting with the Right Person, Delivering the Right Message (how can you address their business challenges), and Knowing the Right Time to reach out to them (when a compelling event happens – key exec change, new initiative, etc)
