About this audience

Two groups lead by county or borough: Greater Manchester at 46 percent and Lancashire at 16 percent. By job level, Director holds 82 percent of contacts (620), well ahead of Owner at 14 percent. Director is over-represented: 82 percent here against 16 percent across the database. No single company size dominates: the 1 to 5 employee band is largest at 15 percent, the 100 to 199 employee band follows at 15 percent, then the 200 to 349 employee band at 14 percent. The 1,500 to 4,999 employee band is under-represented: 5.3 percent here against 15 percent across the database. The three largest are Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Merseyside, together 73 percent of contacts.

525 of the contacts are emailable, meaning a named email scoring 70 or more at a corporate subscriber. 540 (72 percent) have a telephone number held, in line with the database figure of 72 percent. Every telephone number is screened against the TPS and CTPS each night through a licensed screening service, and carries its status and the date of that screen. We treat a screen as valid for 28 days, our own rule rather than the ICO's. Screen the numbers you are supplied yourself before calling, and again every 28 days.

This count combines two filters. The job role filter maps written titles to one role through the Emailmovers title dictionary, so variants of a title count together. The region filter comes from the ONS Postcode Directory. It covers named business emails at active UK companies. Individual subscribers, meaning sole traders and ordinary partnerships, are excluded by default. Emailmovers relies on legitimate interests under UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f) for named business contacts.

How we count explains title matching, places and rounding. The trust page lists sources, sub-processors and the legal basis.
