I don't really see anything that makes this company notable. The article is vaguely promotional in tone and I can't find any substantial coverage of the company. Ducknish (talk) 20:32, 23 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - The two references that the article currently provides never mention ContactDB and Google News found one mention here. It's not surprising that I found few results, considering that they are a mailing list company and this line of work wouldn't receive any significant news coverage or sources. To help broaden my Google News search, I added "Callbox" and "2004" but failed to find additional sources. Additionally, the article reads like an advertisement, focusing with promotional and unreferenced statements such as "The company is known to provide targeted contact databases" (known by who?).
