Founder&CEO, The Patriot GroupGreat LinkedIn hack. I found it very useful. So much less expensive than other lead generation options.

Business Relations Specialist, Northeast ColorCustomer success team has been suuuuper helpful, generous and patient. After comparing Apollo, Lusha, RocketReach Upleads it became clear that SignalHire had the best value and consistent helpful communication. I am only getting started and have raised my momentum forward 2xs because I have the phone #, mostly cell to reach the most obscure CEO.
