My wife went to a conference recently and got a back issue of the June 2006 Inc. magazine. Maybe you guys didn’t know it but Jigsaw is an online network that allows business people to buy, sell and swap contact information.
The founder is Jim Fowler who started the company in 2004. He was tired of overpriced business databases loaded with out of date contact info so he basically created his own system. Now he’s helping those of you who need it to get past the web of secretarial and executive assistant gatekeepers for $25.00 a month.
The fee gets you a set of starter leads and then extra contact leads every time you contribute good information to the database. It’s a good reciprocating system from the looks of it. It seems to have a wiki kind of feel to it just from reading about it as you can also correct errors and get more leads for doing that as well.
Check out the rest of the article from the issue and see if there’s some actionist value there for you.
