Direct mail is more effective than e-mail. Don’t believe us? Here are some statistics:
• According to a study conducted by DMA – when direct mail is sent to an existing customer, the response rate is 3.4%. The response rate for email is 0.12%.
• According to a study conducted by Ritter’s Communication – 50% of people pay more attention to direct mail than any other advertisement mediumA successful direct mail campaign requires not only a creative concept that ‘talks’ to the right audience, but well considered copy to initiate a positive response.
Top 5 considerations when planning a direct mail campaign:
- Consider your objectives
- Define your target market
- Define your target message
- Consider how audiences will respond
- Evaluate the response to your direct mailing
Our direct mail concept for Bakergoodchild played on the fact that they are a ‘heavyweight’ within its industry. As the campaign pieces are created we will share these with you via our website.
