Return to the glossary index

Verifying customer and prospect data involves confirming various details such as address, telephone and fax numbers, business activities, staff numbers, and the names, surnames, and job titles of decision-makers. This step, usually conducted by telephone, is crucial because responses to questionnaires sent by mail or fax are often infrequent.

  • File qualification

    Data qualification involves enriching customer or prospect information within a company's customer relationship management (CRM) system by implementing targeted actions. This approach aims to improve the effectiveness of marketing and sales strategies, sometimes as a prerequisite to campaigns. It can be achieved by raising awareness among the teams responsible for data collection or by enriching existing databases. Generally, this qualification is carried out via an online or paper form, sometimes combined with contests. For example, in the banking sector, data qualification helps to better understand customer needs in order to provide better advice.
