Telephone Preference Service
Responsiva's business information supplied as telephone marketing data is pre-screened against the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) as standard. This ensures that telemarketing lists are compliant with data protection requirements.
Statistics for business data registered with the TPS file across the universe of UK businesses:
- 27% of telephone data is registered with the TPS file.
- If only telemarketing data with 5+ employees are considered, the figure drops to 16.5% of company data registered with the TPS file.
- And for the telephone data lists with 20+ employees, only 12% of the universe is registered.
Smaller businesses (especially sole traders) find excessive inbound telemarketing calls obtrusive to their operation and daily trading. Therefore a higher percentage of the smaller companies are registered.
Geographical Requirements
All b2b data requires a geographical specification, even if this is the full UK.
When ordering marketing data lists the geographical aspect should be the first point of consideration. B2b mailing lists may be segmented geographically by:
- Town
- County
- Postcode AREA (e.g. "M", "WA", "SK")
- Postcode DISTRICT (e.g. "M1", "M3 - 5", "M8 & 9")
- Postcode SECTOR (e.g. "M12 5", "M12 7 - M12 9")
The value of targeting marketing data to a tight catchment area is the reduction of travelling time (and petrol costs) for your sales team.
There are 124 postcode areas in the UK, and a mailing list may be segmented by territories (e.g. "North West", "Scotland", "London" etc).
Counts of available mailing lists may be supported with maps.
Customer Profiling
One of the strongest methods of identifying perfect prospect lists is to profile your existing customers. A business mailing list is ideal when the prospect data therein "looks like" your existing customers.
A customer profile has three stages:
- Match the customer database to the business universe.
- Review all variables (from the universe) of the matched customers, and identify trends.
The most common trends typically occur with the industry classifications, market sectors and company sizes. Customer profiling yields a targeted database list specification for your key prospects. (e.g. "Finance Sector with 20+ employees").
The final stage is to identify the net names; i.e., the number of prospects meeting this marketing data specification which are not resident in your customer data list.
Direct Mail Data Lists
All information from Responsiva is ideal for a prospect mailing list. Business lists are supplied with company name and address, with a contact name where required.
Mailing data lists may be targeted for multiple use (i.e., many mailshots) over a twelve month period. And Responsiva guarantees that you will get less than 2% returns with your direct mail data. Any excess of this figure is refunded without question, even during a difficult economic climate with so many businesses folding.
A b2b mailing list will typically yield a 1% - 2% response rate, though this depends entirely on your service offering, timing, marketing literature and the prospects selected.
The use of business mailing data has remained a consistent favourite route to market.
