Many business list campaigns can be successfully targeted using a combination of the criteria listed above, but your needs may be more specific.
For example, you might need to target companies selected by profitability, rate of expansion, with a certain number of pc's, or using a specific software application. You could be looking for an unusual job function, or people who have already expressed an interest in, or are already using, a specific product or business service. Many specialised databases exist to meet these needs.
In cases like these we aim to provide prompt solutions using our unique in-house business data directory, developed and constantly up-dated by TLS. It contains over 1,000 specialised or unusual data categories, with potential sources listed against each one. This enables us to make rapid and efficient comparisons of volumes, quality and cost, and select the best - however specific or unusual your needs.

Raw Data
Raw data for our business lists comes typically from public domain sources such as Companies House and business directories. Detailed information is then gathered daily, through ongoing telephone validation carried out by trained researchers. They verify the company information (size, business activity, site status etc) and names, job titles and job functions of key senior contacts. Where actual turnover and employee size are not known, a profiled or "modelled" value is applied.
Re-verification is carried out at pre-determined regular intervals, depending on the size of the company. The largest are contacted every three months.
Updates and cleaning (gone-aways and notified changes of address/contact name) are carried out constantly.
Guarantees
We offer a 100% guarantee on all postal and telemarketing data with no threshold, and 95% deliverability on all email data.
Costs
Business list rates vary, depending on the volume, the type of data and the usage you require. The cost options for your data will be clearly outlined in your data proposal.
