Ethnic Technologies Helps Companies Learn More About Their Customers




Companies wanting to reach emerging markets are now looking towards their own internal databases. Ethnic Technologies, LLC, a pioneer in database segmentation, offers “E-Tech,”® a file appending system which companies can use to learn more about their own customers’ demographics and preferences using their own database, leading to increased sales. “E-Tech”® uses a series of computer programs and extensive tables of both first and last names to perform a detailed analysis of each name on either a residential or business database. A company can then target offers by ethnicity, religion and language preference. “E-Tech”® classifies over 170 ethnic groups with a better than 90% accuracy rate. How many of your customers are African Americans? Which have unique African names? Which are Islamic? “E-Tech”® answers these questions, enabling marketers to both tailor sales messages for maximum effectiveness and respond to the growing recognition that ethnically sensitive promotions impact the bottom line.
