4 Unique Ways to Reach Customers at Home

 

Postcards

Postcards can serve as a simple reminder to help stay top of mind with customers. Many people enjoy the appointment reminder that comes in the mail from their doctor or dentist so why not take the same approach to promote your products or services. According to the USPS, 77% of people sort through their mail immediately upon pulling it from their mailboxes. This way your business will not go unnoticed as it might with an email blast.

Brochures

Brochures are great as they provide an insightful overview of your business, services, and/or products. Think of it as your website but on paper. A brochure can be designed as a guide to walk customers through a series of information or actions. The first page should be used as an introduction and closing with the last page as a conclusion followed by a call to action.

Greeting Cards

Believe it or not, not everyone wants to be sold to when they open their mail. A greeting card is a nice surprise mixed amongst all the bills. Use a greeting card to simply say hello, hope they are doing well or wishing them a happy holiday. Some common upcoming events are Father’s Day and summer. Or you could be extra fun by celebrating trending holidays like National Flip Flop Day if you sell shoes or Smile Power Day to promote love and generosity. After all, there is a holiday for practically everything nowadays.

Invitations

Surprise your customers with an exclusive invitation. This can be an invite to an upcoming event, sale, incentive, or experience. Invitations are a great way to build excitement and interest amongst your customers. Be sure to be clear and informative about your offering or event.
