I have two sizeable contact lists—each holds well over 500 records. One sits in Excel but contains corrupted cells and malformed email addresses; the other is a text-based PDF that needs to be pulled into a spreadsheet. I want every usable detail from both sources preserved, merged, and polished so the final result drops straight into my CRM without any extra tweaks on my end. Here is the exact flow I need you to follow: • Repair the bad data in the Excel file, correcting obvious typos, garbled characters, and broken email formats. • Extract every record from the PDF (no OCR required because it is already text-based) into Excel. • Combine the two sets, then de-duplicate thoughtfully—cross-checking LinkedIn profiles to ensure the most complete and current record survives. • Run the merged list through your preferred email verification tool, removing anything that would hard-bounce or is otherwise invalid. • Deliver one Excel file, alphabetically sorted by company name, with every column neatly labelled and no hidden glitches. I’m not prescribing specific fields; just carry over every piece of information available so I can decide later what to map in the CRM. When you reply, please tell me: 1. A brief example of similar clean-up/merge projects you’ve done. 2. The email verification platform you’ll use (e.g., ZeroBounce, NeverBounce, Mailgun etc.) and why you trust it. 3. Your estimated turnaround time and total cost. Accuracy and data hygiene are paramount, so only apply if you are meticulous and comfortable working at this volume. I’m ready to award quickly.

I once undertook a CRM clean-up project for a marketing firm that had accumulated over 1000 records in their database. Similar to your project, I had to scrub the data from multiple sources, fix corrupted cells and remove duplicates while preserving every usable detail. It was a voluminous task, but with my 15 years of experience in data management and processing, I executed it with precision, ensuring the final output was error-free and well-organized. For email verification, my recommended platform is ZeroBounce. Not only does ZeroBounce offer a reliable solution that detects and eliminates hard-bounces and invalid emails, but it also helps maintain sender reputation and reduces the likelihood of being marked as spam. I trust this platform because of its 99.5% email deliverability guarantee. In terms of turnaround time, considering the meticulous nature of the work, I estimate completion within 7 days with a cost that aligns with my commitment to affordable and top-notch service.
