What is Direct Mail Marketing?
Direct mail marketing uses a mail service (Cornerstone Services, Inc.) to deliver promotional, informative or fundraising mail pieces to your target audience. Direct mail marketing encompasses a wide variety of marketing materials, including brochures, catalogs, postcards, newsletters and appeal letters.
How can direct mail marketing help?
Direct mail marketing can be used to achieve a specific goal in mind. When done correctly using strategy, targeted data lists and creative mail pieces, the results can exceed expectations. Below are a few direct mail marketing examples and what can be accomplished:
Grow your business.
Sending out promotional mail pieces such as offers, events or new items and services can bring in potential clients and customers.
Raise the funds you need.
Non Profit Organizations can use personalized appeal mailings to inform the recipient about your organization and what you plan to do with the money received.
Spread awareness.
Mailing educational pieces is a great way to widely distribute knowledge about a certain topic with the aim of reaching the largest number of people.
