It Sounds Crazy, But… Direct Mail Is BACK!
In today's digital world, you might think that direct mail is dead. I mean, most of the stuff that comes in our mailboxes seems like junk.
Well, this is one of the BIGGEST myths of 2023!
For many businesses, direct mail can be an incredibly effective way to generate more traffic and leads. Yes, even in 2023.
There's a reason businesses invested around $43.3 billion into direct mail campaigns in 2022 (Statista).
Here’s what everyone overlooks…
The fact is, most people’s mailboxes are less crowded than their inboxes or news feeds. There’s no spam folder, and no algorithm standing in your way. A well-designed and well-written direct mail piece can REALLY stand out.
The best part?
There are so many amazing automated services out there that make direct mail campaigns a breeze, whether you're sending postcards or letters. These tools take away the tedious manual processes involved with mailing at scale.
