I am looking for a comprehensive list of all Vice Presidents of
Marketing and/or Public Relations for all Technology companies in the
Atlanta and DC area.  Focus is on the small to mid-size business, but
am open to enterprise companies as well.  If there is a way to find
out if those companies currently have a PR firm, that would be most
helpful...obviously, I am looking for companies that do not currently
have a firm.

Request for Question Clarification by czh-ga on 02 Dec 2002 11:41 PST

Could you please clarify what you mean by the geographic limits for
Atlanta area and DC area? "All technology companies" is also difficult
to translate into a search. What fields do you include as "Technology
companies"? How many companies/names would be acceptable to you? ALL
may be impossible and we would definitely like to help you get what
you need. Thanks for the clarification.

atlanta area would be any company in atlanta or the surrounding
area...say 20 miles (as there are many outlying areas) - dc area would
be dc, the northern virginia area and maybe a bit in the baltimore
area closest to dc...Regarding technology companies, those would be
companies who provide enabling technology - for instance: telecom
(both equipment suppliers and carriers), information security,
supply-chain management, etc... - i DO NOT want any companies that
deal with pornography...just the back-end technology.  I am looking
for technology companies that would be in need of high-tech public
relations counsel.

Regarding the number of companies, I am not entirely sure.  I want a
comprehensive list, and obviously, as I don't have that now, I don't
know the number.   I will tell you that 1000 companies would be too
many.

You might find this service interesting for meeting your needs.
