Business to Business Mail List

When considering your next purchase of a business to business mail list, there are a few important points to remember.  Consider for a moment your existing internal mailing list of customers.  If you’ve tied your transactional data in with your business mail list, you should be able to sort by not only most profitable customers, but also which customers are shopping more frequently with you.  Both these elements are elements that can measure the quality of your “best” customers.  Not all businesses have this level of granularity tied to their business to business mail list.  Some businesses rely on general assumptions from the owner’s own intuition, or a quick survey from the sales associates working directly with the customers themselves.  Many times this is mostly accurate, but is does lend itself to missing other valuable information.  Intuition doesn’t identify commonalities with those pesty “not good” customers.  Just as important as identifying the commonalities of good customers is measuring what’s different with the “bad” customers, such as those that have the most return items, require more than average human interaction, or are slow to pay
