What Has Allowed for DM plc’s Success?

DM plc has grown substantially since it’s original incorporation in 2004, this can be put down to multiple factors, namely, the calculated acquisitions that have been made by Adrian John Williams.

  • Data Locator Group Ltd & PDV Ltd

Firstly, the acquisitions of Data Locator Group Ltd in November 2008 and PDV in April 2009. With these came the opportunity to rapidly establish the influence that we have in both our market position and consumer lifestyle database marketing.

  • Accolade Publishing Ltd

Accolade Publishing Ltd has also recently joined our ranks. We are looking forward to working with them given they operate some of the largest online comping websites available.

  • Transactis 2017 Ltd

Additionally, in July 2017 was the acquisition of the business and assets of the Transactis data pool. This has only proven to further enhance DM plc’s already huge data pool as they work with some of the largest Mail Order Businesses in the UK.

  • MyOffers Ltd

In October 2019, MyOffers Ltd were acquired by Adrian John Williams. They are an online permission marketing company that specialise in connecting UK consumers with Special Offers.
