How do you build this list?
- Describe the people in one sentence. On Starter and above, search "CFOs and controllers at manufacturing companies with 51 to 500 employees in the Midwest". Buzz reads real titles and company names instead of relying on industry codes. On Free, use the filters in the table below.
- Use the right titles. CFO, VP of finance, controller, director of finance, head of FP&A, treasurer and finance manager.
- Set the company size. At 1 to 50, the controller or owner. At 51 to 1,000, the CFO or VP of finance. Above 1,000, the CFO plus directors.
- Choose the channel. Email with a number in it. Finance leaders respond to specifics. Scrub numbers against the National Do-Not-Call Registry and your own do-not-call list before calling or texting.
- Save, reveal and reach out. Save the list and reveal only the people you will contact. Each reveal uses one contact from your monthly allowance. Export a spreadsheet, or on a paid plan have Buzz write the emails and send them through Buzz Send once you approve.
