Email authentication startup ValiMail comes out of stealth with $1.5 million - VentureBeat

Email authentication startup ValiMail comes out of stealth with $1.5 million - VentureBeat | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it
ValiMail, a startup with a cloud service for authenticating email, is coming out of stealth mode today and revealing a $1.5 million seed round.

The startup is built around ensuring that companies only send out verified emails, so that employees, partners, and end users don’t end up receiving illegitimate messages. Rather than leaving companies to implement old authentication protocols — like the Sender Policy Framework (SPF) and DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM), or the Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC) that builds on those two — ValiMail takes care of all that and offers users a simple web-based interface to work with, for an annual fee.

Marteq's insight:

And thus the rationale for 3rd party data integration with the in-house database...especially built-into CRM and MAP. With a monthly shrink of 2.5-3.5%, within a short period of time a DB becomes filthy.

B2B Marketers Primary Sources of Prospect Data and Customer Insights - MarketingCharts | #TheMarketingAutomationAlert

B2B Marketers Primary Sources of Prospect Data and Customer Insights - MarketingCharts | #TheMarketingAutomationAlert | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it

Excerpt...


Just 16% of North American B2B marketers say that their prospect data is accurate, reliable and comprehensive, with 79% admitting it needs improvement, details the CMO Council in a new report [download page]. Part of the problem seems to be that a plurality 24% update their data resources only periodically, with few doing so constantly in real-time (17%) or daily (14%). Marketers may have difficulty updating data more than periodically, given that they are drawing on a wide variety of sources.

Can't argue with the sources nor the order of priority, but I'm a bit surprised that proprietary DBs are only 51%.

B2B Lead Blog » Customer Relationship Management: 5 steps for finding the right vendor for your data hygiene | #TheMarketingAutomationAlert

B2B Lead Blog » Customer Relationship Management: 5 steps for finding the right vendor for your data hygiene | #TheMarketingAutomationAlert | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it

Condensed...


Step #1. Compile a list of vendors

Step #2. Determine what information is most important

In our case, it was:

-- >  Contact name

-- >  Job title

-- >  Company name and company address

-- >  Contact phone number and company phone number

-- >  Industry/SIC

-- >  Revenue

Step #3. Weigh each record field by value

Assign weighted values to each of the appended items depending on your needs. For instance, if job title is most important, then give it a higher weight than company address.

Step #4. Use a large enough list to sample test vendor accuracy

We started by taking a list of 100 records we knew to be highly accurate and stripped out some of the data. Next, we added those 100 records to a list of 900 additional records to create a test list of 1,000 total records that we sent to each vendor.

Step #5. Add up the scores and consider any other factors

The vendor with the highest score from your testing will likely be your best choice, but there are factors of completion time, size, cost and complexity of data to consider in your overall decision.
