where does everyone get their email database? feeling lost
we been burning through our marketing budget trying different b͏2b emai͏l databa͏se providers and getting pretty inconsistent results. we're a 12-person saas startup doing cold outreach to vps of engineering and nothing's really clicking
right now testing a few tool͏s but the data quality is all over the place. some providers have decent coverage but emails bounce like crazy. others have accurate data but barely any contacts in our icp. my cofounder keeps asking why our reply rates suck and i'm like dude the emails aren't even landing in the first place
also looking at Apo͏llo since they have good technographic data, and someone mentioned Pro͏speo to me last week. but before we commit to anything, curious what everyone else is using for their business email database? specifically need accurate vp/director level contacts at series b/c companies. volume matters less than quality at this point - we'd rather have 200 verified emails that actually land than 2000 that bounce.
