Prisma’s DM360 digital direct mail enhancement platform bundles multi-channel marketing on a per piece pricing structure.

THE SITUATION

With the growing competition of online advertising, direct mail advertisers need to get creative in getting their message to market effectively. Times have changed. People no longer receive a mail piece and pick up the phone and call or walk into a brick-and-mortar location.

So where do they go? Online.

86% of people who are interested in a product or service go to the company’s website first before calling or visiting the brick-and-mortar location. A solution provided by some direct mailers is to offer pay-per-click online advertising enhancements to their client’s mail runs. This is a minimal form of advertising that provides an additional touch point for a mail campaign. But is it ultimately effective?

THE ANSWER

Yes and no. Adding an online enhancement will ultimately drive more traffic, but paying for each enhancement separately and using a pay-per-click budget can become costly over time. Depending on the product and success of the campaign it could cost your marketing team more than it’s worth.

THE SOLUTION
