Direct Marketing
|
Direct marketing is based on establishing one-to-one communication with your customer
or prospect. The key to success with all Direct Marketing (DM) activity - includig
email marketing - is effective targeting of your customers and prospects. Extensive
experience from within the DM industry has clearly demonstrated that without effective
targeting no matter how good your product, service or creative message ? you will be wasting most of your investment in DM. The building block for all DM activity
is therefore customer and prospect data acquisition and data management. From here
you can develop the segmentation and targeting data you need to deliver successful
DM activity.
Our experience is that many small businesses struggle to manage their customer data
efficiently; they find it difficult to build an effective database of their customers
and prospects and they therefore risk wasting one of their most valuable assets.
This makes it difficult to base key decisions concerning the growth of your business on critical information such as:
? Who are your most valuable customers?
? Which of your customers are unprofitable?
? Which of your customers has ?lapsed? and are no longer
active?
? How successful has previous DM activity been?
? What is the ?best? method to communicate with your
customers ? direct mail, e-mail or direct response
advertising?
