# Talking Numbers to integrate online and offline analytics - Link: https://fundraising.co.uk/2007/12/11/talking-numbers-integrate-online-and-offline-analytics/ - Published: 2007-12-11T16:48:41+00:00 - Author: Howard Lake Charity data specialist Talking Numbers and web analyst Intellitracker are partnering to offer integration of offline and online data analysis. They say that it will offer “the most rounded donor insight available on the market”, spanning direct marketing and website behaviour analytics. While there are plenty of sophisticated tools for measuring direct marketing campaigns and others for measuring web site activity, to date it has been difficult to combine the two to offer an effective overview. By combining offline and online datasets across a common platform the two companies aim to make possible new levels of all- round donor insight, prospecting and the development of marketing data strategies across all direct marketing channels. Nigel Magson, Managing Director of Talking Numbers, explained the need for the new service. “Online media has been developing with some great successes for sometime,” he said, “yet most charities are still handling their data in separate silos with no or little integration with their off-line customer databases. ## Advertisement [⌊Posthub advert.
