Your company can gather a wealth of data from businesses and consumers alike to help target your message – but the aim is not always to drive immediate sales. Data should assist in personalised marketing to gain a better picture of who your future customers could be.
How accurate it is depends upon many factors, from the day it was acquired to the last time it was updated.
The cost to your business both in terms of monetary value and reputation can be measured through what data you hold and your customers.
We can assist you by updating, cleansing and validating fragmented databases across various platforms; (Excel , CSV, etc) ensuring they remain concise, accurate and up to date; enabling your company to gain the best competitive edge when you engage with your target audience in line with current & future Data Protection laws.

In many cases, existing data is fragmented and spread over many platforms (e.g. Spreadsheets to CRM systems) and is incomplete. Whilst organisations are acutely aware that data accuracy is important, it is worth considering the actual cost to a businesses bottom line when failing to maintain correct records across many disparate platforms.
This process is essential to ensure that, when utilising your data for marketing campaigns, it is reliable!
For both consumer records and business data (where applicable) – we cross reference your data with National and international consumer and business files.
We offer a global data cleansing service for many countries worldwide.
In the UK alone, the Royal Mail estimates that 37% of business records will be out of date within 12 months – translate that figure worldwide and the cost to your business of relying on old inaccurate data, both in monetary and reputation terms, could be huge!

We use a combination of segmentation analysis, profiling and modelling, in order to:

Our analysis provides everything you need to gain a true insight into the meaning of your data, turning it into a valuable resource for long term growth and profit.

The accuracy of your data is surely the key to marketing your products and services to potential customers.
Data profiling is the method of examining the data available in a database and collecting statistics and information about that data which help to identify its use and data quality. This method is widely used in data warehousing & viewing ‘Big Data’.
Data profiling clarifies the structure, relationship, content and derivation rules of data, which help in the understanding of anomalies and uses different kinds of descriptive statistics including mean, minimum, maximum, percentile, frequency and other aggregates such as count and sum.
The additional information obtained during profiling is data type, length, discrete values, uniqueness and abstract type recognition, which all in all assist with Analysis and future planning. Profiling is an essential activity of any Data Quality, Master Data Management or Data Governance System.
