MarketForce!


Our Aims

MarketForce! is conceived as a marketing tool with maximised flexibility:

  • to analyse databases, providing useful marketing feedback based on existing customer, sales and campaign records.
  • to produce:
    • targeted mailing lists
    • mail merge source files
    from subsets of archived and current data.
  • to be 'plugged in' to existing data.
  • to import data from more complex sources for analysis and list production as above.
