Suppose you have leads or contacts in your CRM system that are missing key information, have bounced email addresses, are just plain incorrect, or if you have duplicates, then you have dirty data.
Bad data becomes a problem if you aren't able to effectively reach your prospect or customer with your message. Up to date and complete contact data enables you to reach more of your prospects more efficiently, and close more revenue.
Databases with incomplete information are not uncommon, particularly when the data for the database are collected by questionnaire. If the questionnaire is confusing, or if it asks for huge amounts of information, or if it asks for information which respondents are reluctant to reveal, a lot of the questionnaires will not come back, and many of those that do come back will not be filled out completely.
Whatever the reason for missing data, an incomplete database is a catastrophe waiting to happen. Data don't usually go missing randomly, and the non-missing data will therefore not be representative of the missing.
For example, if you're constructing a database of the success of women and men in your organization, but the men are less likely to return questionnaires about their success, your database will probably exaggerate women's success.
How do you clean this dirty data?
Own a complete database. If you're in business, a database should reduce your costs or increase your revenues.
If your organization is non-profit, a database should either reduce your costs, enable you to provide more service for the same cost, or enable you to provide more effective service immediately.
