Business Suppression File - Background

BSF records are collated from Four reputable sources -

• The Dun & Bradstreet Business Database
• Wegener (previously Market Location)
• The REaD Group's consumer and SoHo data file
• Experian's Business Database

Records are verified before going on the BSF file. However, there have been situations where multiple mail items have been returned marked 'Gone Away'.

We had a recent example where a contact had been promoted within the same company, but when a phone call was made the receptionist stated that they had 'left post' - the contact therefore appeared on the BSF file as a mover.

We therefore recommend that the BSF be used to highlight records which need further investigation before you delete, suppress or flag them on your database.

If you have 10,000 records on your database and we flag 200 as requiring attention you will still save significantly in phone calls and staff time in researching this list.
