Data from multiple sources is often one of the biggest headaches facing direct marketers. It’s common to have several different data sources, often in different formats, that need to be merged into one list.

Having multiple sources of data may lead to:

  • Duplication of records, increasing the costs of direct marketing campaigns and irritating customers who receive multiple direct mail pieces instead of one;
  • Difficulty in accurately assessing the success of a direct marketing campaign;
  • Difficulty in extracting data that is needed, when it is needed;
  • Data may be more prone to error as the need for human intervention increases;
  • High costs incurred in the management of multiple IT platforms.
