Overview

Point at a champion who worked out and find more people like them. Find Similar Contacts takes one person and returns a ranked list of others with a comparable professional profile, matching on job function, seniority, industry, and the kind of company they work at. Scope it to a single company to find someone's counterpart there, or leave it open to surface matches across many organizations.

What You'll Get

A ranked list of comparable people. Each result carries:

  • Name
  • Job title
  • Company
  • ZoomInfo contact ID

Email addresses and phone numbers come from Enrich Contacts.

Best For

  • Building a persona list from a champion who converted
  • Finding one person's counterpart at a different company
  • Extending outbound into a role you have already sold to
  • Rebuilding coverage after a contact changes jobs

If you can already describe the persona in filters, Search Contacts gives you more direct control. To find comparable companies rather than people, use Find Similar Companies.

How It Works

ZoomInfo Data

Similarity is scored across:

  • Job function
  • Seniority level
  • Industry
  • Company characteristics

Scoping to a company answers the question "who is the equivalent of this person over there." Leaving it unscoped ranks the closest matches wherever they work.

Credits

Automatic Tool Selection

The AI reaches for this tool when you name a person and ask for others like them, usually while building a persona list for prospecting. It may chain into Enrich Contacts when you need email and phone.
