The new profiling service is designed to collect in-depth information about a target market, e.g. market requirements, time-scales, buying patterns, identifying the decision makers, influencers and recommenders, related to defined products and services. Clients will then have enough of the right information to determine how and when to go to market, and who to contact.
Ian Cullen, Director, Target 250 states that “We see a huge demand for this service, and expect it to become a significant part of our turnover.”
Peapod have been a client of Target 250 for over a year, and have executed several campaigns with Target 250 in conjunction with their partners, including Trend Micro, SurfControl, Juniper Networks, MessageLabs and Aventail.

“We have been able to demonstrate a clear return on investment with every campaign we have run using Target 250. By delivering targeted marketing campaigns at the sales edge we’ve been able to close business from a good percentage of appointments attended” commented Tony Larks, Business Development & Marketing Manager. “We believe that with this new profiling service we can define our target markets better and faster than before, enabling the sales people to be more effective.”

Chris Whife, Director, Target 250 comments “We're delighted to be expanding our relationship with Peapod, and see our new Profiling services as a natural extension to our core tele-marketing service. We're in the business of helping our clients to close better business, faster.”
