A new year is right around the corner, and as we plan our personal resolutions, many of us vow to get organized, declutter and start the new year fresh. Professionally, this resolution can come with big benefits, too. One way to take advantage of this is database cleanup.

“We all know how frustrating it can be when you have just pieces of the information you need. Just like a missing piece of a puzzle, lacking all the necessary information can make a big difference in your ability to generate leads, fill your sales funnels and shape your marketing strategy,” says Sally Kellam, VP of Client Services at SageAge. “Database cleanup allows for better analysis, reach and – of course – data. It really is the key to a more organized, more insightful year.”

The Importance of a Clean Database

If you aren’t reaching your audience, you can’t generate leads, share your story or showcase your differences, but this also goes beyond that. In fact, database cleanup also has a lot to do with saving time, saving money and saving you from missing opportunities, all of which affect the bigger picture and keep your from reaching your goals. How? Let’s break it down.

Goal: To Cultivate Leads Through Marketing Efforts While Actively Increasing Readiness
Problem: You Don’t Have the Correct Email Address

If you don’t have the correct email address, you’re not going to be able to contact those you want to reach or continue reaching through your marketing automation or email marketing tactics, leaving your messages undelivered and unseen by those who need it most.

Goal: To Create an Effective Direct Mail Campaign to Generate Leads
Problem: Your Address Aren’t Updated

Without correct addresses, your direct mail campaigns won’t be as effective. Instead, money will be wasted on incorrect addresses who may not need the services you’re providing.

Goal: Re-Evaluate Your Lead Base
Problem: Strong Leads Have Gotten Buried in The Database Over Time, While Unlikely Leads Take Center Stage

You could be missing out on leads that have had a change of circumstance, increasing their readiness to move, act or convert by spending too much time trying to weed out leads who are far away from advancing or who will never advance.

Goal: To Better Prioritize the Time of Your Team
Problem: You’re Wasting Time Evaluating Your Database or Transitioning to a New Customer Relationship Management System

Correct and updated statuses in your database saves time, lead to better prioritization as well as the ability to easily migrate to new CRMs while freeing up sales counselors for other important tasks.

How SageAge’s Concierge Service Can Provide the Solutions You Need to Excel

What can you do about your database to make your year ahead productive, efficient and effective? SageAge is here to help you clean up your data while taking care of filling in the missing pieces, targeting your marketing efforts and more through:

  • Buyer Analysis – Want to get a deeper look into your actual consumer? We can take your database append data and create a profile to further target your marketing efforts.
