Enrichment

Data enrichment enhances the value of customer data by attaching additional pieces of data from other sources, including geocoding, demographic data, full-name parsing and genderizing, phone number verification and email validation. The process provides a better understanding of your customer data because it reveals buyer behavior and loyalty potential.

Address verification – Verify U.S. and Canadian addresses to highest level of accuracy – the physical delivery point using DPV® and LACSLink®, which is now mandatory for CASS certified processing and postal discounts.

Phone validation – Fill in mission area codes, and updates and corrects area code/prefix. Also appends lat/long, time zone, city, state, ZIP and county.

Email validation – Validate, correct and clean up email addresses using three levels of verification: Syntax; Local Database; and MXlookup. Check for general format syntax errors, domain name changes, improper email format for common domains (ie.: Hotmail, AOL, Yahoo) and validate the domain against a database of good and bad addresses, as well as verify the domain name exists through the MaileXchange (MX) Lookup and parse email addresses into various components.

Name Parsing and Genderizing – Parse full names into components and determine the gender of the first name.

Residential Business Delivery Indicator – Identify the delivery type as residential or business.

Geocoding – Add latitude/longitude coordinates to the postal codes of an address.
