How We Acquire Our Data

Constantly gathered! Constantly verified!

SK&A’s databases are comprised of the most up-to-date information available in the industry today. Unlike other list and database companies, SK&A employs a full-time, in-house staff of research associates who call and verify 100% of our data. Our trained experts verify names, titles, phone, and fax numbers. We also gather supplemental information such as public and private ownership, organization size, practice specialty, and affiliations.

Acquiring new data is a vital part of ensuring that our information is the most current available. Because we go to many different sources for our data, we’re able to offer specialized databases that other list companies just can't offer. Our diverse mix of industry information comes from such sources as:

Company and corporate directories
Internet Web sites
State licensing information
Mergers and acquisitions announcements
Trade publications
White and Yellow Pages directories
Professional associations
Government agencies
