Business Name Search

What's the best way to perform a business name search?

When you need to research a competitor, find information about a prospect or perform a business name search, what tools will you use? Internet search engines will give you thousands of results, but not a sense of which articles or Web sites hold the most relevant or credible information. That means you can spend hours sifting through mountains of data without finding anything important. And, the content they access is not comprehensive - there are thousands of subscription-based information sources that may hold key intelligence but can't be searched via the free Web. That's why Factiva®, from Dow Jones, has designed Factiva Search 2.0.
