Three Key Marketing Strategies:
1. Surveys
2. Capturing Attention
3. Efficient Postage
The Power of Surveys
Surveys are crucial for crafting effective marketing strategies. They provide insights into what to offer, whom to target, and how to do it. Without research, your direct mail campaigns might lack direction.
Here's a breakdown of how you're already using surveys without realizing it:
- Unintentional Data Gathering: An optometrist, for example, understands that women aged 40-65 are his primary market because his inventory for this demographic is constantly restocked. This reflects an unwitting survey process through observing buying patterns.
- Conducting Targeted Surveys: Suppose you're a mortgage broker struggling with engaging messages. A survey might reveal that potential clients shy away from refinancing because they perceive it as too complex. Knowing this, your promotional message could shift to: "We'll simplify refinancing for you."
Capturing Attention: Say Goodbye to Envelopes
A common challenge in direct mail is grabbing attention. Most envelopes look similar, leading recipients to discard them without a glance. Here's where postcards come into play:
- Postcard Appeal: The vibrant design and immediate visibility of a postcard help ensure your message is read. Unlike envelopes that might conceal enticing offers, postcards lay everything out visibly.
Consider this analogy: On a subway, if someone tries selling you something hidden under a trench coat, you'd likely avoid them. But if a Girl Scout offers you cookies openly, you’d be more inclined to purchase. Your customers respond similarly; don't hide your offers.
Streamlining Direct Mail: Making It Hassle-Free
Designing and printing postcards is just the beginning. Getting them to recipients efficiently and cost-effectively is equally important. You have two options:
1. DIY Approach: While seemingly cost-effective upfront, handling direct mail yourself can eventually be more expensive.
2. Using Direct Mail Services: These companies use specialized software, leased from the USPS, that ensures your addresses are accurate and barcoded. This garners postage discounts.
By utilizing specialized equipment, direct mail services can save you substantial postage costs and reduce the hassle of managing mailings yourself.
In summary, outsourcing your direct mail campaigns can save you time, money, and hassle. Consider switching to a direct mail marketing company for efficiency and potentially significant savings.
