- Built the world's first US business listings database in the industry in 2004 and I was the main supplier to big corporations for their telemarketing purposes. (I'm the inventor of "business list" / "business listings" / "business database" terms in the industry as I promoted them alone on search engines at that time; there was nobody else to reference from)
- Built the world's first US business email contacts list in 2005 when cold emailing was rising for the first time.
- Built the world's first international B2B prospecting lists in 2007. Many international marketers (the majority of whom didn't know the meaning of cold emailing at that time) faced my data set for the first time for cold emailing due to my invention in the industry.
- Built the world's most stable and highly accurate global B2B email contacts pool at the beginning of 2008.
- I've crafted the ultimate plan to dominate the B2B prospecting industry with my newest venture, Bookyourdata.

Chief Data Scientist

Following my success as the world's first car specifications data provider, I decided to pivot to creating a mobile phone specifications database. This database included every single detail of all mobile phones in the world. As with the car database, I was the only one offering this type of data at the time. Many of my clients were well-known and popular news websites focused on mobile phones. Like the car database, I offered monthly updates to my private clients via a subscription model.

Chief Data Officer

Pluup

In 2004, I single-handedly created the world's first car specifications database and began providing monthly updates to my private clients, many of which were leading tire manufacturers and OEM parts providers in the automotive industry. The database contained three types of car specs data: US cars, UK cars, and international cars. I arranged the data sets in this way because some car models were produced differently in each region. At the time, I was the only one in the world offering this type of data, which made it extremely popular. As a result, my one-man business experienced significant growth within just two years.

Data Aggregator

ServerMaestro

I co-founded ServerMaestro, one of the world's first hosting companies. ServerMaestro was acquired by SadeceHosting in 2005.

Co-Founder

Baris Zeren is the CEO and founder of Bookyourdata, a leading B2B data provider trusted by over 20,000 clients worldwide.

His journey in data innovation began in 2004, when he built the world’s first car specifications database. In 2005, he developed a comprehensive U.S. business listings database. These early achievements laid the groundwork for founding Bookyourdata in 2015, with a mission to make premium, accurate B2B contact data accessible to all businesses—large and small.

At Bookyourdata, the team is redefining standards in the B2B data industry:
	•	97% data accuracy—significantly higher than industry benchmarks
	•	Real-time email verification ensures only working contacts are delivered
	•	500M+ B2B profiles across 200+ countries
	•	Intelligent job categorization for precise targeting

This commitment has earned Bookyourdata the trust of major brands including Oracle, SpaceX, and Pepsi, and helped it become the #1-rated B2B data sales intelligence platform on G2.

Beyond running Bookyourdata, Baris is passionate about sharing his expertise on data-driven growth strategies, compliance, and modern sales prospecting. He’s always open to connecting with businesses—whether startups or Fortune 500s—to explore how clean, targeted data can fuel smarter decisions and stronger sales outcomes.

Let’s connect and grow together.
