NZ Business & Marketing Databases
How to Choose a New Zealand Business Database
Not all databases are equal. Choosing the right supplier will save you time & money in the long run
Two of the most important factors in marketing your product or services are:
- Focus your resources
- Target the right people
Both of these can be achieved by choosing your business database correctly.
Your investment in a business database is only the first of many expenses and it will not be the biggest. There may be printing, postage and phone calls (depending on how you use it) but most of all, the cost of your time. If the database is inaccurate or cannot supply the details you need you will waste time and resources contacting the wrong companies and the wrong people and it may represent your business very poorly.
