Business Data Prospects UK B2B data is sourced from call centre work, a regional publishing house, trade publications, and our in-house data acquisition team. The data is then matched against other business information sources such as Royal Mail PAF file, BT OSIS, industry magazines and other publicly available resources.

Q. My existing contact database is a mess. Can Business Data Prospects help?
Yes. Through our data cleansing service, we offer a complete review of your existing contacts. According to our specification, we’ll solve the problem of poorly formatted, duplicate and incomplete records to provide a fully working database. The result is improved response rates that maximise the return on your marketing investment.
Q. What is the difference between generic and personal email addresses?
All our UK B2B email addresses are the personal email addresses of contact within a business that you are targeting. We do not provide generic email addresses such as sales, info, or enquiries unless requested or in response to common FAQ questions. We believe a Senior Decision Maker does not read these. Therefore, it will not achieve the intended results. However, many companies provide generic email addresses to achieve high open rates, although your intended recipient will not open them.
Q. What are the industry standards for B2B email data results?
Industry best practice guidelines across the UK include deliverability of 85% on emails. However, we strive to work over and above this figure with all our clients. Business Data Prospects constantly achieves results above this and guarantee all our B2B personal email addresses are checked before despatch and are, on average, just 3 days old! This ensures that you will never be emailing contacts that left months ago.
Q. Do you have any guarantees?
Yes, we can provide a 100% guarantee on our data – Business Data Prospects Agency can offer free of charge replacements for all returns that we agree do not work within 21 days of our invoice date, so you don’t lose out on any data which does not work for you. We are the only data company that can offer such a high guarantee as we build all our lists bespoke for each client.
Q. Can you provide the data and share the revenue of my results?
Business Data Prospects provides a marketing platform for our clients to discover their chosen targets quickly and accurately approach the intended recipients through a streamlined process to promote their business, rather than a direct sales channel of payment on results, quite often referred to as CPA (cost per acquisition).
The reason behind our thinking is that many of our clients receive a range of different responses depending on the product/service offered and the relevance to the end-user, together with the marketing material and the energy put into the follow-up.
