Help sourcing data

[MBPH]

Hi,

I'm wanting to purchase b2c home-owner data. This will be all relevant tps checked and be for homeowners in the south Yorkshire area. I've bought some crap in my time so would need a trial of say 500, with view to purchase in bulk.

If anyone can help me out and quickly that would be great.

Thanks

Amazing how many people want a sample of 500 only never to hear from them again. Do you have any idea of what goes into and the cost to generate 500 leads on average?

 

[MBPH]

If your data was any good you wouldn't have any issues in providing a sample. Also it would be paid. Thanks

 

[Thermodynamic Man]

That's tosh. Nobody has ever come back with any problems or complaints regarding any data we have supplied. But then again none of our clients ever asked for a free ride either

 

[MBPH]

I'm sorry but where on my OP did I state that I wanted a "free ride"?

Are you <removed by mod>? Where the hell does it say free. I actually purchased a trial for £160!and them bought 30k as the data was good. Bet you're a joy to do business with...

 

[Thermodynamic Man]

Am neither. But I bet you are one of those that asks for the 500 as a trial then comes out with something like they weren't that good, we couldn't contact them or only a small percentage were any good. Sorry pal. Have had so many experiences to my cost from people with the same crap as you have spouted.... total wasters

 

[MBPH]

No, I'm not your pal...good night

 

[Thermodynamic Man]

at least you got that one right.. see ya

Wow is that the way you feel it's appropriate to communicate with people within a business context? I'm sure you are a joy to do business with too.

Your original post did look your were asking for a trial (ie free) and then pay if you were happy.

All you had to do was clarify that was not the case, rather than use personal insults.

I suspect many of those appearing rude in here are anything other than polite when speaking on the phone or meeting face to face. On this occasion I did not read the initial posting as anything other than a paid for request and that the poster was not willing to put in a bulk order until the first 500 was viewed and tested. Sounds fair enough to me too. I didn't read it as a request for free as free was not mentioned.

Pretty normal to trial anything or test anything before a big commitment, if you can get it for free do that, no harm in asking, if not you pay whatever you need to pay, simple.

Whether I'm online, on the phone or meeting people face to face - using insulting terms for people with disabilities is never something I am comfortable with.

Certainly for me creates the impression of someone I wouldn't want to do business with.

I agree however as the derogatory term has been removed by the moderator what is left looks like 6 of one and half a dozen of the other.

 

[MBPH]

There was absolutely no reason for him to comment, and get aggressive! The comment was an observation and a commonly used term. You will only be offended if you choose to be. On this occasion he deserved such a remark!

Nothing wrong with paying for a small trial sample. Out of interest - how easy are B2C lists to build? Are these people that specifically opt in to a list, and also confirm they're happy for their details to be passed on to anyone?

 

[MBPH]

Do you mean would it be easier to build your own list?

 

[Rob Gordon]

No I was wondering about the nature of buying a B2C list - since consumers are protected from 'scraping' legally.

As I understand it, as long as they are on the TPS you're free to give them a call for marketing purposes.
