Frequently Asked Questions
What is so special about ITW Marketing's Consumer Details™ database and lists?
Plenty.
- ITW Marketing has pre-approved lists from this database for use at any Catalog Data Cooperative for optimization and/or modeling.
- ITW Marketing has also pre-approved these lists to be run net of the client's housefile on the Catalog Cooperative's database.
- 500+ unique selects
- 110 million households
- Multi-sourced from the country's biggest and best data sources
What does “pre-approved for use at a Catalog Data Cooperative” mean?
The following example illustrates the concept:
- A mailer, who is a member of one or more Catalog Data Cooperatives, selects a 1.5 million Hispanic name file from the Consumer Detailstm database and has it sent to one of the Catalog Data Cooperatives for optimization.
- The Catalog Data Cooperative runs an optimization model on the file. Names which are dupes to the mailer's housefile at the catalog data cooperative are recognized and are not scored by the model.
- The mailer selects from the top scored segments of the model, in this case, approximately 150,000 names.
- ITW Marketing only charges the mailer for the 150,000 names selected from the model.
What about nets?
Clients only pay for names selected out of the modeling process which are also net of the client's house file.
Note: Although this program is for members of Catalog Data Cooperatives, it is not endorsed by any Catalog Data Cooperative, but rather is a special program offered by ITW Marketing to mailers who are members of these cooperatives.
