The claim, plainly

SalesScout works with enterprise clients including CenturyLink, Mitel, RingCentral, Windstream, Iron Mountain, and WeWork.

a quote alone can be ambiguous, so this restates it with the references and context of the conversation around it resolved. AI-written; the tape below the player is the source.

Assessment

The claim bundles multiple client relationships. While public evidence confirms engagements with RingCentral (documented via joint webinars in April and June 2018 with RingCentral executives David Morrison and David Cowings) and Mitel (documented via a SaleScout case study published in September 2018), independent public documentation confirming client engagements for CenturyLink, Iron Mountain, WeWork, and Windstream as of August 2018 is incomplete or absent. CenturyLink, Iron Mountain, and WeWork were mentioned only by then-CEO Chris Lynde in a February 2018 interview without third-party corroboration, and Windstream remains entirely undocumented in public records.

In April and June 2018, RingCentral executives David Morrison and David Cowings co-hosted webinars with SaleScout CEO Chris Lynde detailing RingCentral's use of SaleScout for TAM optimization and demand generation.
SaleScout published a case study in September 2018 titled 'How Mitel's Channel Partners refueled their sales pipeline with SaleScout data'.
Engagements with CenturyLink, Iron Mountain, and WeWork were asserted solely in an executive interview with SalesTech Star in February 2018, while Windstream has no public case studies or corroborating records.

Lynde: 90% of businesses in typical compiler databases have no employees

“Well, if you, the dirty little secret about this business is that 90% of those are non-employer based companies. And companies that are selling B to B services to another company certainly don't want to target other companies with no employees.”
