Movers Mailing Tips
Help
New Movers
Get Comfortable and They will Reward You.

|
Almost every adult in America
has been a new mover at
some time in their life. When marketing
to this set of consumers, don’t be too selective. Some
of these consumers may be new to the
real world and some may be very established and well off.
Don’t be too quick to only select consumers
by their value of their home.
New movers
remember offers that got to them soon after their move.
Even if they don’t utilize your product or
service right away, in the future they may pull out your offer when
things have
settled down for them. If you are
offering a service, send them a magnet with your information on it to
put up in
their new home. |

5 Direct Mail
Elements guiding your Campaigns to Success.
The
List--For
direct mail to gain a consumer response, it must be targeted to
profiled prospects who may need your products or services . Selecting a
new movers' file is a great target because these movers in fact
spend money in the first six months of their move. But make sure
that your list is narrowed down to the perfect target market. A
new mover who rents a condo, probably will not need a gutter cleaning
during their occupancy. Choose additional data
selections to narrow in and to get a perfect direct mailing lists.
The
Offer--It
is referred to as the deal.
The offer should be clear and include a deal that a prospect can't
refuse. Offers are either soft or hard depending on your product
or service. A call-to-action or a way to respond must be included in
support of the offer.
When constructing the offer you must ask
yourself: How much am I able to spend on a new customer?; How good of
a deal am I able to afford?; What is the value of a new long-tern
customer? Repeating the offer in the mail piece is key in direct
marketing.
The
Timing--For
direct mail to gain better response rates you should focus on the
prospect's buying cycles and habits. Sending a message for
tax services in July, may not be as profitable as
sending the same message in February or March . New movers are
in a stage in their life were they are establishing new relationships
and shopping loyalties. Timing is essential when marketing to
new movers, do not miss your window of opportunity.
The
Layout--
It critical to have a layout with specific
graphics
that compliment the copy of the direct mail piece. Always
use people or people using the product/service over product shots alone.
Use different color fonts sparingly. When using postcard
type mailings, the eye goes from
right upper, to left middle, and ends at right lower...design your
piece to consider this flow. For letters, the eye starts in
the upper left corner and zig zags to the lower left corner, this
is why a P.S. in
letter is so important.
The
Copy--A
good mail piece relates to what the product and service will do for the
reader. The writing attitude should be about the benefits the reader
will receive by doing business with your company. Be clear and
simple, the copy should be written as if it was a conversation with the
reader. Short sentences, headlines, sub headlines and repeating the
offer are important for readers to understand your message. Most
readers scan when they look at direct mail, make your copy scanable.
