Telephone Area Code (NPA), Prefix Code (NPANXX), and Local Calling Area geographies and demographic data are now available in Telco 2005.

Telco 2005 is ideal for Sales, Marketing, Market Research, Customer Service, Strategic Planning, and Financial Analysis.
Telco 2005 offers an easy-to-use program to profile your customer database, plan your calls, or optimize phone information. You can extract 60+ demographic variables for any of the over 62,000 Area Code + Prefixes (the first six digits of a phone number).

Telco 2005 can help you:

• Pre-screen your list to determine the best calls to make for telemarketing or phone surveying
• Create up-sell targets based on the demographics of the phone area
• Add valuable marketing and location data to your existing records
• Maintain your telemarketing program
• Reduce data entry errors
• Match customers to dealers or service centers in their area

Telco 2005 allows you to cross-reference areas:

• Link Area Code and Prefix (NPANXX) to Zip Codes and towns
• List the top 3 zip codes and towns (MCDs) for any given Area Code or Area Code + Prefix
• Include Latitude and Longitude coordinates of area centroids
• Run a radius around a Latitude/Longitude point and get the NPANXXs and demographic data within your radius.

For telemarketing - Telco 2005 can determine the demographics of an area before you decide to call into that area. For example if you want to make calls to survey home owners on a topic and you need to decide which 10,000 numbers to call, using the Telco 2005 to profile your numbers will allow you to make the best possible calls.

For marketers - This product is another way to profile your customers, much like a geocoder. The user enters the Area Code + Prefix (NPANXX) and gets demographics for the area to which it belongs.

For phone companies - Access to Telco 2005 boundary files allows you to visualize and map your market penetration in any given area.
