Methods for finding CEOs and CMOs contact details

[maibravo]

Hey all,
I'm a slight newb, trying to find contact details of CEOs or CMOs of corporations that class as potential buyers. I don't know if it's something particular to the adult entertainment industry (I was working on an adult domain) but none of these tactics ever worked:

-Finding the name of CEO or CMO on their website or on online reviews of the website.
That means I can't try the "CEO name @ company name. com" tactic either.

-Looking up the Whois. All protected.

Emailing the info @ company name . com is pretty useless, I hear, and it makes sense that it would be.

Is there some other way to find CEO /CMO contact details that I'm missing out?

Thank you.

I suspect that so much mail addressed to CEOs gets filtered out, that you mail will never get to him.

This is an old tactic I used to use back in my early days when I used to work in sales, doing cold calling.

Would use an introductory email and send it to the person I want to get in touch with..... with some blah blah blah...then a few days later I would call them...so when I call it's not a cold call because they would already know who I am and why I'm calling if they read my email. Anyway..I digress...

What I would do to find a specific persons email address was... lets say I was looking for the IT manager for a company called ABCXYZ .... I would fist head over to their website and see if I can find their "our team page, or who we are" something like that ...to see if his/her name was listed there... if that fails I would do a few google searches... and most of the time would be able to get the persons name and surname at least... (if that failed I would pick up the phone and phone the receptionist and as her...who is ur IT manager they would give me a name - they would be reluctant to give u an email address out the blue but just a name is fine)

Now once u have their name and surname...all u need to do now is figure out what naming convention they use for their emails in the company.... like it is it [email protected] or Initial.Surname or Surname.Initial..or whatever..u get what I mean.. this can often be done by simply doing a google search of @abcxyz.com - then if there are any staff members emails address thats indexed ... u can see how their email naming convention is setup... then simply follow that and email the person directly

You nail it!

Depends on the company, however a publicly held company/corp should have a Board of Directors & Company Officers listed " somewhere " that may ( ? ) include their pertinent/ contact emails.

Nevertheless even with those contact emails it remains highly unlikely the email will be read by that BOD / Officer but rather by a sub-ordinate administrative assistant whose job it is to screen through the daily incomings addressed to the BOD/ Officer.

BUT - perhaps a well written email might ( ? ) get forwarded to the person in the company most likely to deal with the respective matter addressed in the email, though IMO the odds are low.

Email-format.com is quite useful.
