Data Enhancement
Your business’s ability to continue to make sales to new clients – and to add depth to communication with existing clients – depends on your people having access to reliable, accurate data, in full compliance with GDPR.
Data quality is important to businesses because bad data prevents growth.
Without regular data enhancement on your customer and prospect databases, it is harder for your sales and marketing team to contact a potential client, make informed decisions about advertising strategy – and even to build a relationship with them.
Many businesses rely on finding a consistent flow of new customers to keep their company afloat.
Research shows that a well-timed email marketing campaign to:
can be responsible for generating more than 30% of a company’s online revenues.
This is why data enhancement and data enrichment is a key tool for marketers.
And it’s not just making sure that they have fresh email addresses and contact data to work with.
With access to over 3,300,000 decision makers within businesses, schools, and the public sector we can fill in the gaps on your existing data lists.
We can also add substantial insight with extra marketing information for the entries on your list.
This is important prospect and customer data that can give your marketing an edge.
With decision makers leaving their roles on average every 4.6 years, we can update contact names on your current databases.
Better still, our data enrichment services are fully GDPR-compliant.
Where we’re unable to determine the status of an organisation on your database that has an email address, we’ll flag it.
This is important so you don’t fall foul of the rules for email marketing under GDPR.

Excellent Quality Data delivered promptly with great service. Has been a huge help during the current pandemic and will be using them regularly. The best I have ever dealt with. Account Manager Lisa Kinghorn is an asset to the business. Great company with superb customer service.
We've recently worked with Scott. He was outstanding from our initial conversation, through to data acquisition and subsequent email marketing campaign. I have nothing but good words to say about him, the company and the service they provided. I should add that we were a little hesitant before agreeing to work with Scott due to a bad experience with another provider. He was extremely empathetic towards our predicament and ultimately guided us through the onboarding and service delivery. He clearly knows he's stuff.
Having a very specific need for B2B marketing we decided to use More than Words. We spoke to Clare Tweed who was very knowledgeable and made the whole process very easy. Clare is easy to speak with, happy to help and I could not recommend her enough, she got our order sorted very quickly and delivered to us as agreed. A huge thank you to Clare and the team at More Than Words.
On behalf of myself and DOM UK, thank you to Clare and the team for making our customer survey process as straight-forward as possible. Reached out to the company after finding them using a Google search and was contacted back straight away. They used expert knowledge to help set-up our survey to achieve the best result possible. Would recommend and will be using More Than Words Marketing again.
