“It is an honor to be recognized by peers for sales lead management leadership,” said PointClear’s McDade, who was among the SLMA’s 50 most influential the previous four years. The Atlanta-based prospect development firm’s founder added: “this is even more meaningful considering the caliber of the fellow nominees.”

Blalock, who was among the SLMA’s most influential in 2010, 2011 and 2012, and a three-time winner of the SLMA’s Top 20 Women to Watch, added, “PointClear and the SLMA share a similar mission: We too are committed to helping companies become more successful in the important business process of managing sales leads.

Susan Campanale, vice president of marketing for the SLMA concurred, "These people are recognized in the industry as power players in the pursuit of ROI for marketing lead generation."
