    Hi there,

    We have a recently updated list of over 850,000 business contacts across the UK - each contact has an email address; TPS checked. Let me know if you would like some samples and more info - we are currently selling the data for £249.

    Cheers

    850,000 ....each with email addresses....

    Great value. Equally great quality too, I bet!

    Just how do you manage to do it for 0.03p when most others are 20p++++?

    And just how do you manage to have so many more email addresses than any (and I mean any) of the large data houses? Are they just really rubbish at getting them?

    We use marketing file - they are really good, not the cheapest but they are good.

    As we offer email marketing we see lots of email lists - you can spot the cheap ones a mile off - they are generally complete rubbish. The cheaper the list the higher the bounce rate, the lower the click throughs.

    A decent list is one thing you really can't skimp on, if your data is old or bad then your marketing will be a waste of time.

    I have to say i'm amazed by some of the responses on this forum, but reading this I can understand why so many companies think that direct marketing doesn't work or the people in these lists are fed up with being spammed.

    The data that you use is probably the most important element of your direct marketing campaign. Everything else is based on the quality of your data so why scrimp on this as it can cost so much more in the long term.

    I've always been a great beliver in segmenting your target market and delivering a targeted message that is relevant and of interest to the segment that you have chosen. Not sending a generic message to a whole market. It doesn't matter what medium you use to communicate the data has to be good.

    As Mike W said bad data can cost so much more than the initial cost, you can be open to prosecution, damage your brand, waste valuable time and effort. I don't know anybody who has done well with bad data.

    Thanks Katie.

    So do you also get data from other sources, reason I ask is that Thomson Local are so small they have anywhere near the amount of data compared to Yellow Pages.

    Give me some idea, if i wanted 250 records just for telemarketing what would the cost be please?

    I look forward to hearing from you

    Thanks

    A startling thread and so many mis-conceptions and inaccurate information its unreal. Too many areas to handle in one reply but just to respond to Jamie's last post as its new.

    Thomson Local are the biggest single data source in the UK - Try not to think of the size of the book compared to Yellow Pages book! I am not saying Thomson Local are the best or recommending anyone here. ( I know where they stand ). All the supplier have different strengths and weaknesses.

    When it comes to B2B data there are only two sources that I can recommend B2B Datalists and Experian. Mark and steve at B2B have been a great help and any issues the rectified straight away everytime. So I would give them a call.

    A cliche but you do get what you pay for with and most things.......

    Expect low quality for mass data volume at a low cost per record i.e 0.01p per record.

    Expect good quality on records which are 0.15p per record.

    Check testimonials, ask for a sample and find out some recency rates.


    Hope this simple advice helps with your purchase.

    I would strongly advise against buying data from a call centre or any company that uses their own call centre from my experience of editing and updating and amending records that the majority of other operators had already used. Their data comes from telesales and teleappointers and many of these people will not put the work in to correctly update records, many of them will and would only update an entry correctly in the event of a sale.

    I have purchased B2B Data from b2b-data.
    They provided me with high quality data at a very cost effective price, i couldn't be happier with the service i have received. They also offered me comprehensive records that include detailed data for a reasonable - slightly higher price.

    Kind regards.
