Clean your database
Is your customer information held in a number of different databases? Does it have a mixture of upper and lower casing? Are the email addresses all correct? Are there New Zealand Post Codes on all the addresses? Are the contact names split out into first name, surname? Can you actually use the data for mail outs, or are there too many messy records?

Data Enhancing
Martins can enhance your in-house database, by file matching your records to the Martins' database. Your data can then be enhanced by adding any of the following fields - Phone Number, Mobile Number, Email Address, Contact Name, Street Address, Post Code, Staff Numbers, ANZSIC Code (Industry Code), Type of Business, Website address. Martins can then add new companies to make sure you are reaching your entire audience (selecting by any combination of Staff Size, Industry, Region, List codes or Modelled/Actual Turnover). We provide an NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) to ensure your data is protected and once matched to our data is disposed of according to the Privacy Act 2020.
Furthermore, once we have removed (or flagged) duplicate records, standardised fields, added post codes, split out the names, checked and cleaned email addresses – we can add Martins data to ensure that you are reaching everyone you need to. Each new Martins record added will be charged at the same rate as your cleaned data.
Deduping and Merge Purge
Most databases contain duplicates, which can lead to all sorts of problems. Martins have developed fuzzy search algorithms to help keep a single copy of each record. Duplicates can be either removed or flagged.
A merge-purge involves joining two or more databases and keeping only one copy of each record (generally a company, but could also be individual contacts). Preference can be given to newest records, or if we are merging data, we can select the most detailed record.
