Los Angeles Direct Mail – The Key to Success is Experience

“Rick” is a young entrepreneur who has an idea for a business that is so obvious, well, it’s one of those services that you hear of and say, “It’s about time.”

Rick is young, but he’s sharp and he impressed us with his knowledge of our business during our first meeting. Like most twenty-somethings, he’s completely dialed in: Bluetooth in the car, Android S6 in his pocket, and an expensive tablet with Windows 10 for sharing when things need to be shared.

Rick has a website and a Facebook page and has a small but steady presence on all the relevant social media sites.

But Rick needs more. “The Internet is crowded,” he told us, “and I’m having trouble getting noticed.” It was a little hard for us to believe because Rick’s business is so unique and it should be in great demand.

After months of testing, tracking, and adjusting his online presence and reputation, Rick threw in the towel. “I’m not going offline,” said Rick, “I’m just shifting strategies a bit to see if something else works.”

That “something else” is direct mail. 

Remember that we just told you Rick is sharp. He’s sharp enough to know when to stop doing the same thing over and over hoping for a different result and he’s sharp enough to do his homework before making a commitment with his marketing dollars. Rick found out that direct mail has shown a tremendous resurgence in the last few years, with reliable estimates of response rates approximately seven times that of a similar digital campaign.

After consulting with us, Rick chose to start his direct mail campaign with a,postcard series, followed by a self-mailing brochure. And he is relying on the full capabilities of Southern California Graphics’ experienced direct mail team to print, sort, and mail all six “touches” of his new marketing approach
