ZoomInfo Recognizes 100 Most Influential Sales, Marketing, and Talent Professionals in the U.S.

Executives From Microsoft, Delta Air Lines, Adobe, and Verizon Selected From More Than 15 Million Eligible Leaders

ZoomInfo (NASDAQ: ZI), the go-to-market platform to find, acquire, and grow customers, today announced the inaugural ZoomInfo Awards, which recognize the Most Influential Professionals in Sales, Marketing, and Talent across the U.S.

Honorees were selected from more than 15 million eligible leaders based on their prominence among industry peers and their company’s prestige. The honorees are scattered across 30 states and represent 278 companies, from industries including telecommunications, insurance, software, airlines, pro sports, and food & beverage.

“The ZoomInfo awards honor the most in-demand business professionals across the country,” ZoomInfo Founder and CEO Henry Schuck said. “It’s exciting to finally share these insights with the broader business community. Congratulations to all of the honorees.”

The same best-in-class company and contact data that powers sales, marketing, and recruiting teams also sits at the heart of these competitive lists. ZoomInfo used a weighted formula centered around the tens of millions of profile views that its platform users and the general internet-browsing public consume each month. It then augmented those rankings by factoring in several attributes of each professional’s company – such as revenue, headcount, and social media following – to produce the final rankings.

Here are the top 10 honorees from each of the inaugural lists of the 100 Most Influential Professionals across three key business verticals:
