Clean up the list before outreach
Remove accounts in insolvency or mass layoffs, so your reps do not spend time on deals that will not close.
Set payment terms
Finance and sales ops check new accounts before they grant invoice payment or credit.
Spot accounts that need a different pitch
A company with layoffs or bad press may need cost savings or reputation help, not growth tools.

Where does the data come from?

From public insolvency notices, company websites, press releases and news articles. Compelling shows the source with each answer.

Is this a credit rating?

No. The columns show public signals. They do not replace a credit report from an agency such as Creditreform or SCHUFA.

What counts as significant negative press?

Compelling looks for reports about fraud, product recalls, legal action or similar. Edit the question if you want a narrower or wider definition.
