<p>A real-time, interactive system and method of building a list of contact records (208/408), such as a mailing list, on a computer network (120) based on selected criteria. A list specification (202) is generated, which may include interactively specifying (514) a geographically defined area for which a contact list is desired including receiving user input, and interactively selecting a product from a plurality of products and a threshold score for the product including receiving user input. The list specification may be transmitted over the computer network to a server (150) where the contact list is built in real-time based on the list specification. If a set of characteristics of the contact list, such as number of records generated or cost, are approved by the user (322/624), the contact list is transmitted to a user-specified node (332/628) on the computer network. The list specification may be stored in memory for reuse by a business, such as a chain of stores. This feature provides a way to easily regenerate new and updated contact llists at future dates for all or a subset of the stores by accessing updated source databases without having to respecify the list every time a fresh list is required.</p> |
