Purchasing B2B contact data is an investment. Here's how to calculate whether that investment will pay off for your business.
The ROI Formula
ROI = (Revenue Generated - Data Cost) / Data Cost x 100
Working Through the Math
Step 1: Calculate Contacts Used
From 175M database, filter to your ICP:
- Target industries: ~20M contacts
- Right company size: ~5M contacts
- Decision maker titles: ~1M contacts
- Your usable universe: 1,000,000 prospects
Step 2: Estimate Conversions
Conservative cold email benchmarks:
- Send to 100,000 contacts
- 2% reply rate = 2,000 responses
- 25% meeting rate = 500 meetings
- 20% opportunity rate = 100 opportunities
- 25% close rate = 25 customers
Step 3: Calculate Revenue
- 25 customers x $10K average deal = $250,000 revenue
- Database cost: $4,999
- ROI: ($250,000 - $4,999) / $4,999 = 4,900%
Break-Even Analysis
At different deal sizes, break-even requires:
- $50K deals: 1 deal pays back 10x
- $10K deals: 1 deal covers cost
- $2K deals: 3 deals to break even
Hidden Cost Savings
- No recurring fees: Save $6K-$50K/year
- No per-seat costs: Free team expansion
- Research time saved: Hours per rep daily
- Export freedom: No additional fees
