About this audience

By job level, Senior staff holds 58 percent of contacts (3,465), well ahead of Owner at 40 percent. Senior staff is over-represented: 58 percent here against 14 percent across the database. No single industry dominates: Wholesale, retail and motor trade is largest at 32 percent, Manufacturing follows at 14 percent, then Professional, scientific and technical at 13 percent. Wholesale, retail and motor trade is over-represented: 32 percent here against 9.5 percent across the database. The spread is similar by region: South East is largest at 18 percent, London follows at 18 percent, then Yorkshire and the Humber at 11 percent. London is under-represented: 18 percent here against 33 percent across the database. The three largest are South East, London and Yorkshire and the Humber, together 47 percent of contacts. A company can hold several SIC codes, so industry shares overlap and can add to more than 100 percent.

3,580 of the contacts are emailable, meaning a named email scoring 70 or more at a corporate subscriber. 4,435 (74 percent) have a telephone number held, above 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 uses one filter. The job role filter maps written titles to one role through the Emailmovers title dictionary, so variants of a title count together. It covers named business emails at active UK companies. Individual subscribers, meaning sole traders and ordinary partnerships, are excluded by default, which leaves out 5 contacts here. 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.
