Go to Market Strategies has a great short
article on how to qualify leads by profiling your current customer base. This is one of the first things we do when creating a
marketing plan for a new client. It's amazing the amount of information you can glean just by looking up your existing client's profiles (guerilla marketing hint: most local libraries have online business databases containing Dun & Bradstreet info)
