Even with all the digital and social media options available to businesses today, direct mail marketing is still one of the most effective methods of reaching potential clients. Direct mail offers specific advantages not available elsewhere.

You can target a very specific group. Lists can be purchased that are based on precise demographic, geographic, and economic factors related to your business and your target customers.

Direct mail is a great choice for small or medium sized businesses. Regardless of your budget, direct mail advertising is always a viable choice. In addition to adjusting the number mailed, you can also adjust size and quantity of content. For example:

•  Letters can be used to address more personal subjects
  
• Postcard are used for general promotions to both existing and new customers
  
• Newsletters are effective for keeping current clients updated about your company’s products, services, and activities, and are also a great soft-selling approach to generate new business
• 
  

Direct mail has the ability to address your potential customers directly. Unlike many other types of advertising, direct mail can be personalized to allow your company to gain more trust and credibility with your potential clients.

Direct mail allows you to place your message in the hands of prospective clients.  Unlike TV or radio advertising where the client only hears or sees your message, with direct mail your message can be kept for future reference.



Direct mail campaigns can be tracked. Using promotions such as coupons or giveaways is an easy way to track the effectiveness of your campaign and allows you to make adjustments to your audience and your message for higher effectiveness.
