How To Use Powrbot to Automate Your Search For Company Revenue Data
Revenue data has influenced every business decision that’s ever been made. It’s determines how we target, value, approach, merge, advertise, purchase, and liquidate. The problem is that revenue data can be challenging to find and harder still to ascertain if it’s accurate.

The bot only crawls trusted sources of data to increase the likelihood that the data it gets back is accurate and up-to-date. Revenue is often self-reported so it’s important to distinguish between good sources and bad source of information when making business or investment decisions.

To start a Powrbot search, simply fill out the first column of a csv file with all the companies that you are interested in like this.
