We understand that the goal isn't always sales, it’s about ensuring your message gets seen, earns trust and drives engagement in a way that is meaningful to your brand.
"Because mail has a physicality, that means that people are going to trust the message slightly more."
Richard Shotton Author of The Choice Factory
Why drive meaningful engagement?
Reaching every household is important because it guarantees inclusivity, ensures no audience is missed, and maximises the impact of a message.
Familiarity earns trust because repeated, consistent exposure helps people feel more comfortable, credible and confident in a message or brand.
Communications drive behaviour change by raising awareness, shaping perceptions, and providing timely cues that make desired actions easier and more likely.
It’s important to make your audience feel valued because when they do, they're more likely to engage, trust the message and take positive action.
Once your customers have a great experience, they’re likely to return and spread the word.
Considered, personalised direct mail shows customers they’re valued. Neuroscience research indicates that mail from companies makes recipients feel more valued (70%) compared with email (30%).
How mail can help master communications
High attention medium
Recipients also pay 134 seconds of attention to direct mail over a 28-day period.
Personalise, at scale
Through Variable Data Printing (VDP) your brand can customise content based on individual recipient data. Personalisation can have a huge impact on response rates.
High engagement rates
Customer mail boasts the highest engagement rate of 99%.
Show an audience your brand values them
People are aware that it takes more time and money to send direct mail, unlike email alone. The more effort a brand puts into their message the more trustworthy it seems.
Deliver behaviour change
Mailed communications act as lasting reminders in the home, guiding decisions and encouraging smarter, more pro-social choices.
