Database Emailer (DBE) is a winner of Information Management Magazine's Innovative Solutions Award as noted by their editor Julie Langekamp:
"Innovative Solutions Awards recognize solutions that are groundbreaking and provide quantifiable business value for end-user."
AIT Research confirmed that Database Emailer (DBE) has the largest opt-in database.
“Database Emailer’s award-winning data query system enables you to have a non-expiring “bank of data record credits” to query and download full data records from any of our many databases. The DatabaseEmailer.com query system enables you to simultaneously require your data to include dozens of social, economic, and demographic criteria for highly targeted campaigns.”
Other companies force you to download your entire purchase upfront, which is very bad because:

Email Rental Caution: Stay away from the email vendor con artists that tell you that they only 'rent' data, i.e. you can't take possession of the data, and they must send it! Your company should not take the chance of having its name in an email going out without your company that has possession of the data that proves how that data was opted in. Additionally, you will never even know how many emails bounced. Many of these con artist emailer 'renters' will never give you the email because almost all of it will bounce! They will bullshit you and tell you that their data was only opted into them. Ask these con artists to show you all their websites where they have got many millions of people to Optin to have them send sales presentations. Tell them what you already know---that they are full of shit!
These con artists will not even email all that you purchased! Furthermore unless you are a major corporation your email is going out at 3 am and therefore doesn't get as much attention as it gets clumped with all the other email to be reviewed in the morning. You also need to own it so you can email it as much as you want.
You need to realize that email companies lease their email servers and pay $99 a month and can email about 30 million a month and they incredibly tell you that "they need to charge you" $1,000 per million. Nonsense!! Tell them what you already know---that they are full of s**hit!
If these "renters" costs are that high it's because their data is causing spamming complaints and having their email servers Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and domain names black-listed by the email recipients Internet Service Providers (ISP's) and therefore the emailer needs to keep buying new IP addresses. That is the scam they play. You don't need to be a part of that subterfuge. You need to take possession of that data because you need to send it multiple times as most people need to see a message more than a few times before they buy. Tell them what you already know---that they are full of s*hit!
Forms of Payment Caution: Most of our so-called 'competition" only takes "non-chargeback" forms of payment (bank wires & cleared checks). Why?--because they know that they are going to beat you silly!!! These con artists can't take credit cards because their merchant account service providers have already shut their scamming butts down due to excessive charge backs resulting from their customers not getting what the email vendor proposed. So if they won’t let you pay by credit card tell them what you already know---that they are full of s*hit!
False Hits Scam: These "Renters" will tell you that they will give you tracking of how many people clicked on a link in your email that took the visitor to your website. What we have discovered is they are using software that automates hits on your website during the sending of emails. This scam also substantially costs your website search engine rankings. When search engines like Google see tens of thousands of quick hits on your website coming from hijacked proxy servers, Google will destroy any hopes that you will ever get a better ranking on Google, or any other search engine. So if they are willing to give you a report of their success---run! Tell them what you already know---that they are full of shit!
Specialty Data Caution: When you are buying data you also need to be very careful, especially if you are buying a specialty list, for example 'golfers.' The email suppliers will tell you that they have a 'golfer' consumer file but give you data in which you would never know whether the data records are actually 'golfers.' The only way that you can be assured that the data record was actually a 'golfer' is to confirm with the email supplier that the data that you will receive will include the opt-in website in which the data record opted-in and it will relate to 'golf.' If the email supplier just tells you that the data records are 'golfers' with zero actual proof, that email supplier is simply scamming you! Run! Don't fall for that bulls*hit!
Free Email Accounts: When you are buying data make sure you do not get all free email accounts (Yahoo, GMAIL, Hotmail, MSN, and AOL). Your data supplier should offer you the ability to choose domains that are not free email accounts. Their data query system should enable you to choose data that are not all free email accounts. If they do not have such a query system ----Tell them what you already know---that they are full of shit!
Large vs. Small Data Supplier: When you deal with a small data supplier (under 200 million records) those companies only have that amount of data to sell so those records are getting pounded with offers and thus are not as responsive. The advantage a small supplier has is that they have the ability to prune their data easier of "bounces" by emailing that data. The large data suppliers (over 200 million records) have a great selection and their data is not hammered but you will find that the bounces are much higher as it is impossible to email 200 million even once a month to prune the bounces from a dedicated server. DatabaseEmailer is unique because even though we have been confirmed as the largest opt-in data supplier we get bounce reports from all of our clients automatically from the email software --so we have the best of both worlds—the largest database that is among the cleanest in the industry. If they tell you that they have lots of data and it’s all clean----Tell them what you already know---that they are full of s*hit!
Bounce Protection: Whether the email registration date is old or new is irrelevant if you are given bounce protection. Obviously, emails come and go and bounces are to be expected; however if you are paying for 1 million emails you should get 1 million deliverable emails. Only deal with a data supplier that will cover 100% of any bounces. If they are not willing to give you more than enough data to cover any bounces ----Tell them what you already know---that they are full of s*hit!
Forced to Take All Data Up front: Only deal with an email supplier that has a "Data Account System" that will allow you to take possession of your data in as many increments as you want over as long a time period as you want. Do not deal with an email supplier that makes you choose and receive up front, all the data records that you buy. You should have the ability to either take all the data or take only small parts of the data when you want. Why? When you start your email campaign there is no way that you are going to know the exact socio-economic and demographics that will be best for your product or service. Only deal with a data supplier if they allow you to take just some of the data and have no expiration date to pull the balance of your data purchase. If they do not have such a system--Tell them what you already know---that they are full of s*hit!
Forced to take Duplicates when Supplementing List: Let’s say you buy data for a certain city, or Interests group. If you go back to the data supplier down the road most data suppliers will force you to take all the data that you already purchased just to obtain the additional data, the supplier obtained. You may have to buy 80% of the same records that you already have just to get the 20% that you don't have. Run from con artist data suppliers that make you buy the great majority of data again just to supplement your list. If they do that to you ---Tell them what you already know---that they are full of shit!
We have been in business many years and have many thousands of clients because we don't screw people!
