June 2008 Consumer Database Updates


The 210 Million Consumer database covers 95% of all US households, and is created by researching thousands of sources and aggregating about 2 billion records into the most accurate database available.

We have improved our multi-Cultural coding process. As a result, a decrease in people coded as Jewish occurred. Conversely, slight increases in the counts of Greek, Basque and Arab ethnic codes will be noticeable.

Updates to the Database  
     
New Movers 1,039,636  
New Homeowners 200,170  
New Bankruptcies 1,411,379  

Did you know that 30% of movers do not report their change of address to the US Post Office? By combining the Post Office’s National Change of Address (NCOA) with other sources, we can assure you the most accurate information available. We’ve added another new source for Change of Address to improve the contact rate of your sales leads.
