Sandra's Prospect Research Blog: August 2005
http://larkinresearch.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html
Sandra's Prospect Research Blog. Tuesday, August 16, 2005. Back (though not fully unpacked) from the APRA conference, which by any standards was a big success, with more than a thousand attendees. I met some great people, attended some highly informative sessions, and even got to see some of San Diego. Steven Hupp. And I talked about blogs and how researchers and nonprofits can, and should, get into this rapidly expanding sector of the web. I ran across an article that mentioned VC blogs. A look at why s...

Sandra's Prospect Research Blog. Wednesday, February 23, 2005. Location, location, location. Real estate assessments are not hard to find. This is public information, and more and more assessor’s offices are making their databases searchable online; at most, it takes a phone call or two. Frequently, a prospect’s real estate holdings are the only asset we can confirm and quantify. Here are some places to find community standards for comparison. Is another company offering free lookups. Links to this post.

http://larkinresearch.blogspot.com/2005_06_01_archive.html
Sandra's Prospect Research Blog. Sunday, June 05, 2005. The New York Times. Calls them the hyper-rich. On Sunday, June 5, the latest article in the Times. Fascinating series on class in America discusses the wealthiest of the wealthy: the top 0.1 percent of income earners - the top one-thousandth about 145,000 taxpayers, each with at least $1.6 million in income and often much more. The average. Income for this group was $3 million in 2002, the most recent year for which data is available. Highlighted th...

http://larkinresearch.blogspot.com/2005/10/business-references_31.html
Sandra's Prospect Research Blog. Monday, October 31, 2005. Today’s discovery is a useful site called Reference for Business. It includes four databases: the International Directory of Business Biographies; the Encyclopedia of Small Business; a collection of Business Plans; and the Encyclopedia of American Industries. Probably the most useful to a prospect researcher is the International Directory of Business Biographies. Which includes relatively detailed biographies of business leaders all over. Is at f...

Sandra's Prospect Research Blog: April 2005
http://larkinresearch.blogspot.com/2005_04_01_archive.html
Sandra's Prospect Research Blog. Thursday, April 28, 2005. A hand up for a handout. As Steven Hupp recently mentioned in his blog. He and I will be making a presentation together in August, at the APRA Conference. Blogs, of course! So I’m blogging about talking about blogging, which I suppose is a sort of meta-blog, but what I really want to talk about is what you take away from a conference session. What do I look for in a handout? Look for in a handout? Especially if you haven’t seen the presentation?

http://larkinresearch.blogspot.com/2004_09_01_archive.html
Sandra's Prospect Research Blog. Monday, September 20, 2004. If any dot-com deserves to be making a profit, it’s Amazon. Second only to Google as the Prospect Researcher’s Friend, Amazon.com can save you time and effort and not just by allowing you to do your holiday shopping from your desk.
