Why CADnet?

What makes us Unique?

There are many firms who provide mailing lists, including engineering and CAD oriented lists. What makes CADnet stand out?

  • Our lists are designed to help you rifle-shoot your message to specific CAD niche markets. We profile CAD software usage information for over 175,000 CAD industry professionals...covering literally hundreds of CAD applications in over a dozen CAD Market segments.....and growing. This is the reason CAD industry vendors come to CADnet.
  • Unlike the many firms that provide broad engineering mailing lists, CADnet's sole focus is the collection and maintenance of information about CAD software users.
  • CADnet offers both a one-time list rental AND an unlimited use 12 month list rental for each of three pricing plans designed to match your budget (see our List Rental Plan Comparison Chart) to assist you in choosing the appropriate rental plan for your marketing efforts.
  • CADnet can verify each and every record in its database so that you receive the most accurate listings possible. We back up the accuracy of our lists with a refund policy that guarantees 95% to 98% deliverability of our lists depending on which plan you choose (read our Refund Policy)
  • CADnet's information is 100% compiled from public industry sources, enabling us to build the most comprehensive CAD database available. We are not subject to the limited number of subscribers, as is the case with most response lists.

 

Why CADnet makes sense for your company
  • It is often said that list selection to direct marketers is what location is to real estate professionals. The mailing list is the most important element in a direct mail campaign, affecting response rates up to 1000% or more. Why? Because a poorly conceived marketing message will get more response from a good list than a well conceived message will get from a bad list. The goal is always to present a well conceived message to a highly targeted list of companies and people with a demonstrated interest in the offer.
  • Since there are over 50,000 lists available on the market, it's critical to find the right one for your business. You don't have the time to keep up with what's available or to know what will work for you. With CADnet you have a single source for everything related to building your prospect list.
  • Half the challenge in marketing high-tech software and services is simply reaching the right prospects to tell them about your offer. Target marketing is among the least expensive and most effective ways to reach potential customers. Why not target recipients by the type of software that they currently use? For example, why waste money contacting all CAD engineering managers if you are selling Solidworks™ plug-in software or design services? Why not limit your message to Solidworks™ users who you already know will be predisposed to your offering. Imagine the possibilities! Would YOUR products or services be of interest to businesses that use a particular brand of CAD software? If so, our lists may be the key to an immediate return on your investment. See more detailed example at  Define your Market
  • Compiled lists are usually better for total penetration of a particular market. For example, say you want to reach every Cadence Allegro™ user in California. Only a compiled list can do that. A response list won't have all the names, because not every CAD user in California has responded to advertising. Besides, CADnet is the only company that collects and compiles information about CAD software usage, whether it be Cadence Allegro™ or any other CAD software platform for that matter. You just can't get that level of selectability with a paid-circulation subscription list.
  • Controlled circulation list demographics can often be inaccurate. For example, say you want to send a mailing to CAD executives that are believed to be using a particular CAD software platform. You want to entice them to either replace their current platform or perhaps you want to offer specific services to assist with that software platform. So, you use a list of CAD executives who responded to a particular publication in the last six months and you furthermore select only those CAD executives who are still using this particular CAD software platform. The problem is this....the publisher had qualified the subscribers within the last six months, but not the demographics (the publisher collected this software information over three years ago). As a result,  the company has long since migrated to a new CAD software platform. NOT a good prospect for your message!

          How do you reach just the people you want to reach? CADnet probably has the list you need!
