7 easy ways to add direct mail to your marketing mix

2 minute read
  1. CONNECT AND OPTIMIZE DIGITAL AND DIRECT MAIL ACTIVITIES
    If you’re already doing direct mail – coordinate it with your digital activities for greater conversion.
  2. START SMALL WITH MVP TESTING
    Testing is a great way to understand the role direct mail can play in your business. Create a minimal viable product to start testing hypotheses and use affordable direct mail formats like postcards.
  3. AMPLIFY YOUR DIGITAL CONTENT WITH PHYSICAL MAIL
    We often forget that content isn’t just digital. Take your best performing content and turn it into something physical. After all, direct mail is content too. Think about it like your physical Instagram feed or your favourite Pinterest board. Digital is constantly impacting analog design trends and vice versa. Take advantage of this for compelling content adaptation.
  4. TRY RETARGETING CUSTOMERS WITH MAIL
    You’re only a pixel away from recapturing digital interest in your website or e-commerce store. Using pixel tracking you can leverage customer data to retarget people at home with direct mail.
