How to Generate an Industry Contact List
Method 1: Generating an Industry Contact List by doing a Company Name search.
- Accept the default Search Type, Company Name
- Under Keywords, enter the name of the most important company you can think of in your industry of interest.
- Click once on the "Jump" button to perform the search
- When the company loads, the Click for Content area fills with keywords, indicating what information we have available for that company
- Click once on the first item in this area, "Address"
- You will see the address for the company you searched for. But wait! Now look on the bottom of that Address window, and you will see a button called "Industry Address Book". This is where you can generate a list in one click.
- Click once on the "Industry Address Book" button
- To copy these companies to the Windows Clipboard, and then paste them into Excel (or any other program), do the following: (note that you can only copy one page at a time, currently)
- Click once on the first company in the list
- Hold down the Shift key on your keyboard
- Click once on the last company in the list
- Click the "Copy" button once
- The contents of the list are now in the Windows Clipboard, an invisible memory buffer. You can now Paste the contents of the Clipboard into any other application.
Method 2: Generating an Industry Contact List by doing a SIC Code search.
- Change the Search Type to SIC Code, and a new window will launch
- Double-click on the industry folder that appears to perform a search
- A multi-page listing of companies in the industry will appear.
- Go under the "Data" menu to export one page at a time
