Instead of relying on traditional lead generation or cold outreach with basic intent data, signal-based selling with ZoomInfo Copilot uses a layered, AI-fueled analysis of multiple high-value signals. Early users report a 58% increase in engagement, 62% increase in email response rates, and nearly 25% more pipeline secured.
Real-Time Signals Transform Sales Strategies
In B2B sales every lead counts, so recognizing and acting on these signals can mean the difference between a deal won and an opportunity missed. Since launch, ZoomInfo has added more real-time signals in ZoomInfo Copilot that help businesses reach out to prospects with personalization and context before they show traditional buying intent.
Personalization Signals provide a better opportunity for connection and conversion
Comprehensive Context gives users the ability to select context-rich insights to incorporate into AI-crafted emails, including C-suite and buying group changes, and hiring plans.
