Mailing List Hygiene Vital to Your Direct Mail Success
What is Mailing List Data Hygiene?
BB Direct leverages best-in-class mailing list data hygiene solutions to help you improve address accuracy and direct mail deliverability, update your files with NCOA Link processing (National Change of Address), and much more. The key to success with any direct mail marketing campaign starts with a clean mailing list. Whether your target audience is a consumer mailing list or business mailing list, BB Direct can review your direct mail campaign strategies and offer you cost effective solutions. In most every direct mail campaign, processing your mailing list through the NCOA and DSF (Delivery Sequence File), produces a positive cost/benefit. You’ll save money by keeping your database clean. You will also capture more customers and improve existing customer retention.
National Change of Address (NCOA)
18 Month NCOA with ANK Link Process - The most common database hygiene process, our 18 Month NCOA with ANK Link Process identifies and corrects moves as far back as 18 months. With ANK Link Process, those moves between 19 and 48 months are flagged as such but are not corrected.
48 Month NCOA Link Process - The 48 Month NCOA Link Process is great for older files where many of the records may be older than 18 months. Any changes to the National Change of Address registry are corrected.
To Clean or Not to Clean?
Mailing list data hygiene involves updating your mailing list so that it is accurate, deliverable, and targeted. It goes without saying that if your mailing list is old and undeliverable, you're going to be printing more than you should, over spending on postage, and reaching people who will likely not respond to your offer. Not only will you miss opportunities with a mailing list that’s not been cleaned, you may also send the wrong branding message to those “unqualified” prospects, known as “disinformation”.
