Objective and Challenge
Aiming to improve its marketing ROI and aggressively promote its corporate tailored products and solutions, the telecom provider sought high-quality prospect data. The profile for this involved executives across Supply Chain, Procurement, HR, Administration, IT procurement departments in small and medium businesses across the length and breadth of the country.
Its past experience with such database providers was quite unfulfilling, given unprecedented delays, irrelevant data quality, and expensive pricing. What brought the behemoth to Netscribes, was its longstanding relationship with us.
Solution and approach
To help provide the client with a highly accurate and relevant database, our team of database experts took the following approach:
- We first built a marketing database using company fundamentals and other filters provided by the client.
- Once the database was approved, we then worked on data profiling. This involved a deep-dive research into domains/data requisites that needed to be culled based on factors pre-stated by the client.
- Some of the most common requisites were last name, designation, role/profile, mobile number, and email ID.
- Other details included social media profile URLs, company branch address, branch phone number.
- To qualify each contact we employed secondary research in its various methods by scouring through news articles, events, company websites, journals, etc.
As a result, the client was provided with a database of small and medium business executive profiles that were highly accurate, customized as per their requirement, and delivered in a timely fashion.
