I have 1,000 companies I would like to find their advertising
contact's email address.

How can this be done?

The companies in question are in the mortgage banking industry.

Sure, it "can" be done. But it will probably cost a maximum price to
"get" it done. That would require a LOT of work. I guess it all
depends on who these companies are and how difficult it will be to
work it up.

Why don't you post a few samples and show us what it is you are
looking for exactly? Then consider breaking your question up into
smaller groups so several researchers might work on your questions at
the same time.

Let's estimate. Looking up any kind of detailed contact info is likely
to take at least two minutes of a Researcher's time, even if the
information is easily found.

One thousand such lookups = 2000 minutes. That is 33 hours of work.

Thank you for the reply. Cost should be fine if the results are what I want.

Here is an example of what I am looking for:

Company Name: "CBCInnovis"
Marketing Manager: Bob Evely
Email: bob.evely@cbcinnovis.com

1. My thinking is that many of these companies will not have their
marketing contact's email on their site but somewhere in the web (past
postings, pubications, etc have supported this theory). I believe
Google can search the web for this information instead of manually
visiting each site. Is this how it would work?
2. How much do you estimate 33 hours worth of work to cost?
3. Would I pay by the job or by the hour (some searches may take more
than 2 mintues if you guys are searching by hand.
4. Would the contact's email be name-specific or generic as in
"marketing@abccompany.com"

Thank you!

it's telling me to please respond to the clarification request but I
don't see one. Just wanted to make sure the next step wasn't with me.

Thanks!

gatsby8870,

The clarification request to which the system was asking you to
respond was that of tutuzdad, posted above, which asked whether you
would consider breaking your question into smaller groups. That is, I
suspect, the only way that you'll be able to get what you're looking
for, considering the huge amount of work that is involved in gathering
so much information.
