Blacksburg Business News   

Blacksburg, VA, --(PR.COM)-- Attaain Inc. today announced a new partnership with 88owls.com to provide business and market intelligence for the consultants using the new 88owls.com service that matches experienced consultants with the companies that seek them.

AttaainCI is a leading web-based solution for competitive intelligence and market intelligence research and tracking. The AttaainCI software/service provides powerful tools for researching, analyzing and real-time tracking of competitive intelligence and market intelligence about companies, people and markets crucial to the success of a business. The system tracks the latest intelligence on key competitors, sales prospects, customers, potential partners, target markets, industry people and more, across single or multiple lines of business. In addition, it provides powerful web marketing analytics to improve the effectiveness of clients’ web marketing strategies.

88owls.com provides a unique new web-based service where businesses and recruiters search for experienced consultants with specific qualifications. 88owls targets businesses with at least $300k in annual revenues to encourage leads with established companies. The match created when businesses search for consultants based on functions, skills, industries, and experience ensures a great fit. Businesses can search for free and find a qualified consultant matching their criteria in seconds. The wealth of up-to-the-minute business intelligence included with each consultant lead prepares consultants to address company problems and plan strategy in advance.

According to Daryl Scott, President and CEO of Attaain, “88owls.com fills a real need in the market for matching high-quality consultants with the companies that are seeking them. The system provides the best approach that we have seen for companies to locate and contact deeply-experienced consultants with the exact qualifications that they require. We are very pleased to be working in partnership with 88owls.com to power the real-time competitive and market intelligence that they provide to consulting members.”

Allan Tsang, Co-founder of 88owls.com, states, “The client inquiries that consultants receive as 88owls members go above and beyond those previously available from any other method. We think they are also much more likely to result in a contract for work. The unique AttaainCI-powered company intelligence portion of the leads generated through 88owls also provides consultants with rich insights into the current market positioning of inquiring companies. This enables 88owls consultants to more fully understand a company’s current situation, and provides a significant competitive advantage for them in winning choice new consulting assignments.”

88owls.com is a new method of client search for business consultants that provides them not only with contact information about companies, but provides the following benefits:

• Since businesses come to 88owls.com seeking consulting, the consultants are assured that the business is willing and able to hire them. 88owls.com also provides background checks on businesses to ensure that they are in a position to hire the consultants they find at 88owls.com.
• The match created when businesses select consultants based on their functions, skills, and experience provides a great fit and allows the business and the consultant to hit the ground running with the required work.
• The business intelligence included with each lead prepares the consultant to identify problems and to familiarize themselves with the current state of the company, resulting in a more successful engagement and more secured contracts for work.
• 88owls.com members are consultants with over 10 years of industry experience and education. This allows businesses to choose a consultant with confidence, knowing they are experienced and knowledgeable in their field of expertise.

88owls.com allows businesses and consultants to save time, energy, and money in getting the required work done.

The new AttaainCI-powered business intelligence reports provided to 88owls members includes a comprehensive profile of a company’s current business activities. A quick review of these intelligence reports provides 88owls consultants with an immediate advantage in having a complete snapshot of a company’s current business activities, including:

Company Profile – address, location map, website address and homepage thumbnail, industry categories, overview description, company rankings, mergers/acquisitions, key management people, consultant connections to company via LinkedIn, etc.

Company Announcements and Developments – recent news coverage, search results, blog mentions, videos, Wikipedia articles, patent activity, hiring activities, etc.

Company Website Statistics – web traffic and trends, inbound and outbound links, website documents and collateral materials, website keyword usage, etc.

Company Paid On-line Advertising and Organic Competitors – pay-per-click ad spending, top targeted ad keywords, top organic search keywords, leading paid and organic competitive sites, etc.

The AttaainCI-powered company intelligence enables 88owls consultants to quickly assess a company’s current market positioning and strategy, to understand the company’s product/service offerings, to gauge the market awareness and perception of the company, and to uncover important recent company developments.
