Is Your Direct Mail Campaign Being Opened?

Is Your Direct Mail Campaign Being Opened?

You can do a few things to make sure that your direct mail campaign is actually being opened and read, rather than go straight into the recycling canister.

A few lines of code can tell you if your email campaign was opened and if anyone interacted with it. In some twisted irony, we now tend to see emails as annoying and see physical mail as a pleasant surprise. But lines of code can’t help you determine whether your physical mail got opened. So how can you make sure that your direct mail campaigns are being opened?

Once your mail makes it into the hands of your target market audience, the next step is to make sure that they actually open it. You want to use a format that will appeal to these potential clients. Every market has its own unique qualities to which you must forge your campaign.

The best way to find out what your market likes is to see and observe what the biggest mailers in your industry send – typically a large corporation.

  1. Identify the biggest direct marketing company in your field and study what they mail. If you do not know the biggest mailer in your niche, you can contact a list broker and ask them who sends mail to the biggest lists in your market. You can get then an idea of what they are sending.
  2. Get samples of their mailing pieces. The best way to get an idea of what they are mailing is to actually receive their mail. If you feel uneasy about contacting your competitor, you can always you sign up under an alias or use a P.O. Box to ease your tensions.
