Deceased Suppression / Mortality Screening

Sometimes, getting it right is about not contacting your customers. Deceased Suppression (also known as Deceaed Screening or Mortality Screening) gives you the ability to quickly identify deceased customers through means that you not only avoid causing distress to bereaved relatives and damaging your brand, but can focus your resources in the right direction and reduce the costs of wasted communications.

Sending marketing material to the recently deceased is one of the worst things you can do for your company reputation, so make sure you screen your data using our deceased suppression service before every mailing. Each record we flag as being deceased costs less than producing and sending a single item of mail, so the return on investment is immediate.
