1. Align B2B contact database with marketing goals: One of
the most important tasks would be to strategize the target market. This would
help the inside sales team to work in a focused way and achieving better
results.
2. Remove wrong email ids or
duplicate records: Email bounce backs and duplication of record happens with
wrong email ids collected during B2B list building,
records not updated in a long time so same person appearing with several email
ids appear in the list to the marketing team. An easy and cost effective way to
handle this would be to work with a B2B Marketing agency like ClientCurve which
would clean the database for duplicates and update the correct email ids. This
makes each campaign more effective and helps in getting better results.
3. Deal with database erosion:
Natural and unavoidable workplace dynamics such as job changes, title changes
and relocations makes one-third of the B2B contact database becomes outdated.
This means marketers need to regularly refresh the database – every quarter is
a good idea. Using services of contact list development and updating with
ClientCurve is an easy way.
4. Acquiring databases: It’s best to
acquire rather than invest time to build it in-house. ClientCurve utilizes
multiple subscriptions and team expertise to build customized list focusing on
getting list that meet client requirement. On acquiring databases from outside
marketers need to spend additional time to identify the titles that are
relevant. You optimize the depth of the campaign by reaching out to the right
decision makers and variety of companies.
