Opt-In Contact List

What is an opt-in contact list?

If you are starting a marketing campaign, then make sure to leverage an opt-in contact list. This list consists of the contact details of individuals who explicitly agree to receive messages from you.

Step 1

Data Sourcing

The data is gathered manually from a range of authentic sources, including online and offline global subscriptions to e-books, news agencies, trade shows, government directories, and web portals.

Data Appending

We use our patented machine-learning tools to append and verify any missing data fields in the collected information. Once the data has been thoroughly verified, we compile and segment the contact list accordingly.

Step 2
Step 3

Data Validation

Through an extensive scanning process, we validate the contact records to ensure that they match our master database. During the manual check, we also cross-verify the data with social media platforms for authenticity.

Data Cleansing

We implement statistical and analytical techniques to check for inconsistencies in the data. After a thorough check for stale data, we proceed with data cleansing. Finally, a manual inspection is conducted to build high-quality data.

Step 5

Data Accuracy

After data cleaning, we conduct a thorough inspection to ensure accuracy. Our team of data analysts then reviews the records that require manual correction. This process of verification, validation, and cleansing is repeated to maintain data quality.

Email Campaigns for Consent

We run A/B tested opt-in email campaigns to ensure compliance with global data standards, including CAN-SPAM, GDPR, CCPA, and CASL. These tests help to validate and formalize consent-based communication practices.

Step 7

Tele-verification & Opt-out Campaign

The final compiled list of records receives opt-out mailers and then follows up with tele-verification campaigns to confirm the accuracy of consent information for each data field.
