MERGE/PURGE
PROCESSING AND REPORTING
Merge/Purge Processing is the launching pad of any good direct marketing
campaign - a procedure that can greatly reduce your postage and printing
costs, increase your response rate and protect donor relationships.
So, how
does Merge/Purge processing do all of those things? It helps you
mail less by removing undeliverable addresses, purging duplicate
addresses and even identify those on your list who are deceased.
Plus, it can recognize multi-buyers and prevent you from sending
multiple packages to the same person.

are able to offer a variety of Merge/Purge services, including:
• 150,000,000+
records processed annually
