DATABASE CLEANING
AND VALIDATION SERVICES
A cleaned & segmented customer database can be the most important marketing tool in your organisation. Misspelled and untidy addresses are a slow puncture leaking costs out of your organisation every time you mail or perform database analysis. Turning your address data into clean, validated addresses is easy and will provide much more than tidy addresses to your organisation.
The Address Matching Process
Using AddressLink proprietary software to match client address databases against the GeoDirectory (the national address database), address information can be validated, cleaned and duplicates identified.

Address Cleaning & Matching
Many addresses have simple errors that hinder address matching. These could be typing errors, or may just be incorrectly spelled addresses. To allow records to be mapped geographically, and compared to other databases, address information must be corrected, cleaned and duplicates removed. Additional benefits of the cleaning and de-duplication process include:
- Reduced administration costs, mailing costs & returns
- Improved, single view of customers
- Improved company image through spelling corrections & reduced customer duplication.
