Making Ranked Lists of Companies in Lexis Nexis

You will use Lexis Nexis. 

Go to LexisNexis and click on search by content type. You want to choose the following option.




 

Now you get to CREATE A COMPANY LIST and define your parameters: sales, place of incorporation, employees, and more:



After getting some results, choose customize list
