About this audience

Two groups lead by postcode area: WD18 (Watford) at 33 percent and WD24 (Watford) at 30 percent. No single company size dominates: the 1,500 to 4,999 employee band is largest at 19 percent, the 1 to 5 employee band follows at 16 percent, then the 20 to 49 employee band at 14 percent. The 1,000 to 1,499 employee band is over-represented: 6.2 percent here against 1.7 percent across the database. The spread is similar by industry: Wholesale, retail and motor trade is largest at 24 percent, Professional, scientific and technical follows at 21 percent, then Business support services at 17 percent. Wholesale, retail and motor trade is over-represented: 24 percent here against 9.5 percent across the database. A company can hold several SIC codes, so industry shares overlap and can add to more than 100 percent.

2,745 of the contacts are emailable, meaning a named email scoring 70 or more at a corporate subscriber. 3,605 (70 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 uses one filter. The place filter uses the built-up area 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.
