Does Your Business have a Huge Email Database? Do you know how Accurate it is?
A typical database tends to go as much as 30% inaccurate annually as people move, relocate or change jobs. If you use an older list for your outreach efforts, you could unknowingly be starting out with a 30% miss rate right out of the gate.
Why Cleanse Your Database?
Prospect databases get old really fast. With a 20-30 % industry attrition rate, 20% of your business email database gets outdated in every quarter. 5% of the database will have wrong phone numbers or email addresses. More than 5% of the typical database has missing or no information. For it to be fully effective, your database needs to be kept up regularly.
Email database hygiene is a major dread for salespeople and marketers. These two groups are database powerusers for their marketing and sales campaigns, and have little spare time to maintain databases. To have inside-sales-people spend time cleaning a database is a major disincentive for the salesperson, who is not working towards his numbers or earning sales bonuses while he cleans the database. Likewise, asking a marketer to clean a database is costing you much more. Bottom line, it is inefficient and cost-ineffective to use the time of an experienced executive who is not skilled in this area, to update a dirty database. On the other hand, using an ineffective database for marketing and sales campaigns will definitely not produce the results and ROI you expect. Catch 22? Not really.
