Data Append
Information is always at a premium. No matter what your business is, you can be sure that if you’re looking for information, there are many ways to get it. Plus, with so many people trying to expand their businesses and reach out further, gathering more information can be a crucial part of capturing customers’ attention.
This is exactly where a data append can come into play. With a data append, you’re taking the information you already have and turning it into even more information. With the right setup behind the scenes, a data append can play a crucial role in connecting more customers to your business and understanding more about your audience.
What Is a Data Append?
First and foremost, what even is a data append? In simplest terms, a data append takes your current list of customer information, runs it through a database, and provides additional data for the data you currently have. For example, if you have a list of phone numbers with no extra data attached to it, you could use data appends to turn that list of information into full profiles on each phone number.
What Kind of Information Can Data Appends Use?
There are two types of information that you’ll use for a data append: the information you put into the data append and the information that you get out. When it comes to putting information into a data append, you’re likely to use some of these pieces of information:
- Phone numbers
- Addresses
- Email addresses
On the other side, you can get plenty of information out of a data append as well. It may include any of this information:
- Full names
- Phone numbers
- Physical addresses
- Email addresses
- Demographics
This can be an immensely helpful way to gather lots of extra information when you only have a little bit of information currently. This is why many companies use data appends to learn more about their customers.
Who Can Use Data Appends?
Just about any company can use data appends if they already have a list of information and they’re interested in learning a little bit more about the people in that information. This means any of these organizations can benefit from data appends:
- Legal firms
- Retail manufacturers
- Health care organizations
- Insurance workers
- Law enforcement
- Debt collectors
In general, if you already have a little bit of information about a lot of people, data appends can be immensely beneficial for your organization. They can add extra information for your business without requiring that you hunt down all that information manually.
