superior?
thomsonlocal are a data owner which means we actually
generate our business database from scratch, calling
businesses directly from our 70 seat UK call centre
and updating their details.
Furthermore our call centre is pay-graded to
ensure accuracy and is subject to rigorous
spelling checks. We make 10,000 connected
calls to businesses every day and make half a
million updates to our database every month.
Business Search is the market-leading, online B2B data list tool that
empowers you to generate valuable new business leads for targeted direct
mail and telemarketing campaigns. In fact, it does so much for you that it’s
almost like having an additional member of your team.
Fine-tune your campaign targeting
With Business Search at your fingertips, you’ve got immediate online access to over
2 million verified business contacts.
Of course that’s too many to wade through by yourself, which is why Business
Search has unique search technology – enabling you to refine your data list to meet
your specific business needs. This ensures you don’t waste valuable time and money
on businesses you aren’t interested in contacting.

4. A subscription to Business Search gives you access to more advanced
functionality and improved credit prices for downloading data - so you
save on your data costs.
What subscription options are available?
You can purchase a Single or Team license. A Team License is ideal for businesses
that want to have more than two users as it’s more cost effective than purchasing
multiple Single licenses. Team licensees also benefit from even better credit prices
and a Manager can over-see all their team members’ campaigns or data purchases.
Never purchase the same data record
twice.
A Business Search subscription also gives you the ability to de-dupe your data
selection against previously purchased thomsonlocal records, so you never
purchase the same record twice!
If you have purchased data from another provider you can use the suppression
functionality to remove any records that have the same phone number, company
name or postcode.
You can also upload third party data to match against and purchase our equivalent
record.
Subscribe and benefit
from additional features
and better data rates.
