Why it ’ s time for prospect data in 2023

Data is one of the most essential aspects of any business .

Having access to timely , accurate and trusted information provides a means to market , communicate and flourish in an increasingly competitive trade .

Knowing your competitors and industry environment is so important for a successful business . Whether the data is used to reshape or grow your target audience , there are many reasons why you need real-time information . Using inaccurate or perhaps outdated data can be a waste of time , money and resources .
Directories are the perfect example of this . Often , data that is correct at the point of creation will not change unless the editor is informed or updates the information themselves .
In a volatile market , the likelihood of businesses going bust , changing staff or even moving into different sectors by the time you contact them is increasingly high - and these are details that companies cannot risk getting wrong .
This is a mistake that Insight Data ’ s Sales Executive , Aaron Solomon , believes is costly .
“ If businesses are using heavily decayed data , email bounce backs , undeliverable direct mail and costs all increase - which could be expensive in today ’ s market ,” he explained .
“ Data errors are extremely costly for any business , but the risk is far greater than just losing money .
“ Sending hundreds of emails to recipients in the wrong business or wrong role will not only exhaust your financial resources but will also negatively reflect on your brand identity .”
However , there is an alternative to using static data which guarantees the data you use is fresh , accurate and up to date . To achieve this , gaining access to a real-time prospect database is vital .
