PeopleSmart is a Data Broker website that gives its users the ability to find leads and business contacts using a variety of criteria. They claim to help their users' businesses by searching for new leads in their target market and reaching out to new prospects.

The website works just like any search engine. Users simply select attributes of the people they'd like to reach and receive a list of potential matches. This means that the more of your data existing in PeopleSmart's database(s), the more information they can sell to their users.
