With our listserv vendors, we guarantee a relevant and refreshed targeted mailing list for your direct mail campaign.
Call to Action
Always drive your audience to take action. Whether it’s getting them to your website or calling a sales representative, if you don’t ask them to do anything they won’t. If you include an offer in your direct mail piece—depending on the industry in which you’re in—your call-to-action will simply be a sales conversion.
