Marketing Tip - September 07

Direct Mail - It Does Work!

1. Think about who your are targeting – split up the database if necessary
2. Your Headline MUST attract attention
3. Create interest in your product – write your text in terms of what’s in it for your customer – how it will benefit them.
4. Be specific with your claims – tell your customers what they can expect – use references or testimonials.
5. Write in a personal format – as if you are speaking to them – even use a bit of slang if it gets the message across.
6. Let them know that it is a great offer – everyone loves a bargain. Just make sure that it isn’t too good to be true – this will put them off.
7. Include an extra reward for ordering early – and make it simple to order.
