How To Get The Most Out Of Postcard Marketing

By Ann Wood


Product promotion is necessary to gain a client base. Prospective customers do not become fully-fledged clients without a little nudging. Direct promotion is very effective. One of the simplest ways is postcard marketing. A piece of aesthetically pleasing cardboard I sent to all potential customers through the post. It is flexible and does not demand too much capital.

The cards are sent through the mail to a prescribed mailing list. The list usually includes previous customers and others whose purchase history and other factors suggest a high likeliness of buying this product. The production and processing is pretty simple. A professional design is advised but not absolutely necessary. If the following guidelines are followed, one can achieve the same as a professionally designed piece.

Start with a big idea. You should give the customer an incentive to read further and even contact your company. The card should make the prospective customer want to know more about the product. With this approach, if the deal is good a customer will create a need for the product rather than wait until it arises. It could be anything from a discount to coupon rates. There should be a promise of extra value.

Choose the most appropriate headline to catch the attention of recipients. One has five seconds from the moment prospect lays eyes on the card to catch or lose attention. It should be interesting and easy to read. Go for a call to action and write a clear message. Also, do not use ambiguous language so that clients do not have multiple interpretations of the message.

Images are a great way to ensure the message stays ingrained in the mind of the recipient. This is the whole point of logos. Images used alongside words are retained in the mind of the mind for up to three days by a large percentage of the recipients. The image should be relevant to both the message and target demographic. It must also be eye-catching.

The card should not say too much. The message communicated should revolve around only one subject. It is tempting to have information about multiple products on the card to save time and money. This could be detrimental. It confuses the prospect and only works to scatter attention. One should focus the mind of the prospect on that one product or offer.

Mails come in envelopes. If one sees an envelope from say, the bank, they know it is their credit card bill. Sometimes one just wants to ignore that for a few hours or longer. Postcards only require a stamp and off they go. The first thing one will see will not be a boring address but a scintillating offer. Using digital promotion has its benefits but in one aspect, this model wins over. Viruses. People do not trust emails from unknown sources anymore so chances are that they will not open a promotional material sent by electronic mail. A piece of cardboard that is delivered by the trusty mailman will be free of viruses though.

Always use quality material. It should not tear easily. Paper is cheap. You will easily find a high-quality paper at a good price. Then, find a computer and printer to finish the rest of the work. Choose a good size that holds all the information without looking cramped. The design should be simple. Free money claims should be excluded. These scream fraud. They will not elicit the kind of reaction desired. There should also not be fine print. The terms on the material should prevail.
