Which Communications Database is Right for You?
Your law firm, CPA firm, or financial services firm’s database is an essential part of the infrastructure you’ll need to send targeted communications to clients, contacts, and referral sources.
For solo practitioners and small firms, a database can be something as simple as a spreadsheet-based Outlook directory coupled with a mailing service such as Constant Contact or MailChimp. For mid-sized firms with a larger number of names in its system, we have helped our clients select, install, and maintain more sophisticated customer relationship management (CRM) systems such as Salesforce and InterAction.
