The Sales Research Bottleneck
Why Manual Prospect Research Costs More Than Time
The Hidden Costs of Manual Research
- Time Drain: Sales reps lose 5-7 hours weekly navigating between websites, LinkedIn, and other sources
- Inconsistent Data: Manual research leads to varying information quality and incomplete prospect profiles
- Scaling Challenges: High-volume campaigns require proportionally more research time
- Delayed Outreach: Research bottlenecks slow your entire sales cycle
- Competitive Disadvantage: While your team researches, competitors are already engaging
This labor-intensive process creates a significant opportunity cost, reducing the time your sales team spends on actual selling activities by up to 20% while resulting in lower-quality prospect data.
