ACCOUNT RESEARCH · Workflow idea

Give new account records useful context—with a person checking first.

When a new company is added, gather relevant business information and compare it with your team’s ideal-customer criteria. Prepare a review of potential fit and any available contact details, then wait for an authorized owner before changing records or adding a person.

01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

A company newly entered into the team’s customer database

“Research the company, compare the available information with your agreed customer profile, and prepare verified suggestions for an owner to review.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

6 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps a sales team add consistent business context to new company records and identify which ones may merit further attention.

  1. Notice a newly added company

    Start with a company record the team has chosen to assess and confirm that it is not a duplicate.

  2. Gather relevant business context

    Collect only information useful to the team’s stated customer profile and retain its source for checking.

  3. Compare the account with your criteria

    Show which agreed fit criteria appear to match and leave uncertain or missing information clearly unresolved.

  4. Review any proposed contact details

    Check that a person is correctly associated with the company and that your team has a valid basis to retain their information.

  5. Approve record changes with an owner

    Require an authorized teammate to approve the exact company updates or new person record before anything is saved.

  6. Keep outreach behind explicit permission

    Do not treat a company match as consent to contact; check preferences and require approval for any message.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

Keep in mind

Research can be incomplete, outdated, or about the wrong company. Verify every proposed field and the basis for storing personal contact information; a profile match is not permission to contact someone. Require approval before changing customer records, creating a person, or sending any outreach.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define your ideal-customer criteria

Document the business signals that count toward a potential fit and how uncertain findings should be presented.

Set research and privacy boundaries

Choose permitted information sources, fields, retention expectations, and rules for personal contact details.

Name account and contact reviewers

Choose who verifies company research, approves record changes, and confirms permission before outreach.

Test incomplete and conflicting profiles

Review a strong match, a weak match, a duplicate, and a profile with uncertain contact details before using real records.

Keep exploring

Review account fit signals

Compare company research with a documented ideal-customer profile for a human-led sales review.
