Fenestration database hits over 20,000 decision-maker contacts
» FOLLOWING AN INTENSIVE PERIOD of investigation from Insight Data ’ s research team , the firm ’ s nationwide fenestration database has now surpassed a remarkable 20,000 decision-maker contacts .
These 20,000 contacts all hold senior positions within 13,800 fabricators and installers that make up the fenestration database , giving suppliers into the glass and glazing sector unprecedented market intelligence .
Alex Tremlett , Operations Manager at Insight Data , commented : “ While the number of fabricators and installers has continued to decline over the past few years , which is partly down to factors such as Brexit and the pandemic , the Insight research team has successfully managed to increase the number of decision maker contacts we hold . This means our clients have more opportunities to promote and sell their products and services than ever before .
“ Our data contains a host of valuable business and financial information , including what products and brands each company manufactures or buys-in , the number of frames per week , their turnover , net worth , credit rating and whether they ’ ve had any Count Court Judgements . Essentially , all the key information you need to see if a company is a worthwhile prospect is at your fingertips , helping our clients make better business decisions .” Like all of Insight ’ s databases , the fenestration database is accessed through Salestracker , an online CRM platform that includes a host of features including integration with Google Maps and a powerful email marketing platform .
Salestracker has over 700 users , including major systems companies , fabricators , and component suppliers , all of which can use the data to create highly targeted marketing lists for email campaigns , direct mail , telesales and call lists for in-house sales teams .
Other databases available through Insight Data include local builders , architects and specifiers , builders merchants and construction file , which contains a range of construction industry companies such as main contractors , house builders and property developers .
Alex added : “ Like fenestration , all our databases have seen a growth in business information over the past 12 months and I would urge any suppliers that are looking to target local builders , architects or the wider construction industry to get in touch .”
