The predictions are in and 2025 is going to be a BIG year for direct mail! We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again, direct mail is the G.O.A.T of marketing campaigns when done right, and Prisma has all the tools you need to do just that. The top 5 direct mail trends to watch out for in 2025 according to Printing Impressions include:
- Hyper-Personalization: Developing hyper-personalized direct mail campaigns, sometimes referred to as one-to-one marketing, provides a tailored customer experience. It allows your brand to connect directly with individuals to better understand their needs, and in turn, provide them with relevant solutions that will increase overall consumer spending.
- Omnichannel Integration: Most people need to see or hear a marketing message a minimum of eight times before they remember it. While direct mail has the advantage of putting that message directly in their hands, adding multiple message touchpoints through omnichannel marketing helps consumers move from recall to conversion. Prisma’s DM360 marketing-based solution brings together direct mail with digital platforms like email, social media and landing pages, to ensure the message is consistently shown to your audience multiple times on multiple platforms.
- Sustainability: Brands that strive to understand their environmental footprint and use eco-conscious materials like recycled paper and biodegradable ink will stand out amongst competitors in 2025. Showcasing these efforts and partnering with vendors like Prisma, who make sustainability a top priority for their clients and themselves, will help you reach eco-conscious consumers and improve the world around us.
- Interactive Mail and Smart Technology: The buyer journey continues to evolve and new technologies like augmented reality (AR) and Near Field Communication (NFC) chips are making the journey more interactive than ever before. Integrating these into omnichannel campaigns like Prisma’s DM360 not only can improve integration, but also may provide discounts on certain mailing options.
- Multiple Response Options & Digital Integration: Providing multiple ways for potential customers to respond to direct mail will enhance engagement and boost ROI according to Printing Impressions. The addition of technology like voice assistants, QR codes, SMS and mobile apps, allows businesses to reach consumers wherever and whenever they are for the most optimal buying experience.
