Sales and marketing campaigns can be greatly improved by targeting prospects that have specific value issues - and by providing sales teams with the account intelligence they need to engage executives and economic buyers more effectively.

Alinean's Value Finder™ for AppExchange delivers the first targeted account intelligence software specifically designed for technology solution providers. With proprietary IT spending research and corporate financial profiles, the software empowers your sales and marketing teams to effectively research market opportunities, create targeted campaigns, and obtain detailed profiles on any account.

Using the integrated Value Finder software, you can identify and rank - from among 21,400 worldwide companies - the most likely prospects that match specific IT spending or business opportunities, produce engagement reports to profile individual companies, and obtain buyer contacts from a database of more than 150,000 key business and IT decision makers within 38 specific industry segments.

Sales & Marketing Professionals:

How can I research market dynamics to determine the prospects most in need of my company's solutions?

How can I access spending and performance metrics for over 20,000 companies and 150,000 buyer contacts?
How can I easily build campaigns targeted at specific value propositions and buyers?
How can I empower my sales team to better engage executives and economic buyers by identifying unique value issues and improvement potential?



Based on the search results, a target list is generated that can be easily utilized in direct sales and marketing initiatives. For each search, a stack-ranked listing is generated to uncover prospects, and highlight their specific value issues. Value Finder can compile these key company results in a detailed briefing (tear sheet), to help sales professionals better understand and engage executives and economic buyers. The briefing sheet includes an overview of the company, comparative performance assessment and key contacts/buyers.

Value Finder delivers pre-set searches and wizards to build reports quickly and easily on over 200 different key IT spending and financial performance indicators. Reports can include filters by specific industries, company size and location with specific IT spending, IT performance or business performance opportunities such as:

  • Business ratio issues such as low inventory turns or high days sales outstanding (DSO)

  • High IT spenders who are low performers

  • Low IT innovation budgets (candidates for cutting TCO and re-allocating budgets)

  • High IT Performers (to see if they correlate to the companies customer base)

  • And more, as defined by easy-to-customize XML scripts

Using the list and tear sheet, customized calls and direct mail campaigns can be designed to address specific value propositions - which can then be drawn upon to create compelling executive discussions, or direct users to online customized Alinean ROI Calculator™ lead generation tools.

The lists are easily exported to Excel (CSV), while the tear sheets can be exported to Adobe PDF or RTF format for Microsoft Word.
