Use Direct Mailing Services to Reach a Targeted Market
Personalized mail stands out in the age of social media and online messaging. According to the 2018 B2B Marketing Mix Report, direct mail continues to be a popular marketing tactic for print promotions. It’s a smart, efficient, and inexpensive way to raise awareness about your business in a specific area. 78% of executives and marketers in B2B businesses say that direct mail is an effective channel.
Send postcards or brochure announcements about your charity fundraiser, restaurant opening, real estate open houses, or website launch. Direct mail lets you forward the postcard or brochure to addresses based on your market’s demographic. The USPS EDDM® tool lets you target specific neighborhoods based on their income, age, and household size. Your message arrives in the right hands and has a higher chance of being opened and read versus an online ad.
