What Whitelight does

Whitelight ISD Limited (trading as Whitelight) is a UK-based B2B sales and marketing services firm founded in 2006 by Patrick Mason. The company provides an integrated suite of professional services spanning four core disciplines: Consulting and Professional Services (market segmentation, positioning, proposition development, sales process audits, CRM management); Data Services (data health checks, cleaning, custom build, acquisition, and analysis); Research and Insight (market research, company profiling, client pre-qualification, qualitative and quantitative surveys); and Messaging, Content & Communications together with Sales and Business Development (demand generation, teleprospecting, lead qualification, pipeline development, partner recruitment, plus email, direct mail, HTML templates, SEO, PPC, and social). Operations are delivered through experienced in-house business developers using what the firm describes as one of the most sophisticated communications and technology platforms in the industry, with the website citing real-time distribution reporting and closed-loop campaign tracking.

The business model is professional-services based, charging for time-and-deliverable campaign execution either as fully integrated end-to-end programmes or as discrete à la carte work-streams. There are no publicly disclosed pricing tiers or fee structures, no software licensing, no API/SDK product, and no data product monetisation. The customer base is horizontal, segmented across IT and software companies, professional services and management consultancy, telecommunications, financial services, healthcare and biotechnology, and "solutions and services businesses" in general. Notable named customers include TechTrac, Gigamon (which won the Sirius Decisions EMEA ABM Programme of the Year in 2016 under Whitelight's campaign), Global Crossing, Attenda Managed Services, Mi-Voice, and a Galileo-related European risk-management software project spanning more than 100,000 seats across six countries. Whitelight is privately held by founder Patrick Mason, has never reported funding, has no parent entity or subsidiaries, and operates registered offices in Farnborough (HQ, Abbey House) with addresses in Guildford and Kingston upon Thames; the firm trades across the UK and EMEA.
