Hill & Co. Launches New B2B Buyer Database
Those attending the company’s upcoming Zoom workshop will receive early access to “The List,” its new resource for finding buyers.
“The List,” Hill & Co.’s new database of verified buyers at retailers, brands, manufacturers, and wholesalers, will become available to the industry later this spring.
New York—Hill & Co. has launched “The List,” a database of verified buyers at retailers, brands, manufacturers, and wholesalers worldwide.
The resource, which will be continuously updated, features more than 20,000 buyers.
Subscribers will be able to search and filter by location, business type, certification requirements, purchase preferences, and more.
The database is compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), a European Union law that protects citizens’ personal data. The GDPR applies to businesses that operate in the EU or serve EU residents.
Hill & Co. said the list was curated by industry experts with decades of experience and features AI-driven verification.
“I know firsthand how frustrating it is to reach out to buyers and get no response," said Hill & Co. Founder and CEO Elle Hill.
"It wasn’t until I developed the right methods—understanding who the right buyers are and how to reach them—that everything changed. The List is the resource I wish I had back then. It gives businesses a direct path to initiate meaningful relationships faster and more effectively than ever before.”
