Direct mail is the perfect communications tool for raising awareness of your business, promoting your products, services and special offers and building customer relationships.
There are lots of ways to get creative with direct mail these days. You need to grab your audience’s attention but don’t forget that a well-written letter with a strong offer may do just the job. It all depends on your market, your brand and your offer.
Get it right, and your direct mail could help you retain your customers for the future – and that’s a nice position to be in – so it’s worth spending time on.
Make sure you get these right:
- The proposition – is it the same for all recipients or targeted? Is it simple and easy to understand?
- The offer – it’s a good idea to test which incentives work best for your market.
- Copywriting and design – take inspiration from examples of direct mail you think to work well.
- Testing – try things out to see what work.
- The call to action – be clear about how the recipient can respond.
We can help with all these.
