Speak To Your Market

Speaking directly to a specific person – this is the main objective of direct mail marketing. Unlike other forms of advertising, direct mail is the only one that allows for that personal touch. The level of personalization depends entirely on the data you have on your prospect. It can range from a simple address and letter salutation to in-depth information such as the type of product your client last purchased and what colours they are partial to. Anyone who has purchased a new vehicle has seen this type of advertising; if you bought a minivan you get brochures about all the new minivan innovations. This is an example of direct mailing service offered by mail houses like directworx.

Once Is Never Enough

Response rate levels depend on both reach and frequency. Managing a successful ongoing marketing program designed to increase customer conversion requires follow-through.

This should be thought of as an investment; an investment of time and money.

The rewards can be big.

Stay in Touch to Stay in Business

The timing of your message is everything.

Multiple touches to a defined list increase the odds that your message will reach your prospect, especially when you’re targeting high-level decision makers. Multiple impressions will also dramatically increase recall rates and therefore, mind share for your company’s product or service (TOMA – Top of Mind Awareness).
