Customer Education – we have all learned that location is key in certain types of businesses, but customer education here means having the room to tell your story and provide a clear picture of what you are offering, building that first step of trust and intimacy.
Cost Effective – like the postcard, the self-mailer can be very cost effective because you eliminate extra folding, inserting and the envelope cost. Used with proper sizing and paper specifications they are a clear winner for your budget.
Layout and Design – self-mailers are BIG! Use your space to build a story with clean simple messages and friendly people pictures no matter what you sell; people relate to photos as part of your message. Get your message across with different sizes of type and uses of color. If your piece has good flow, your response rates will have good flow.
Continuity – self-mailers are great for building continuity. If you are using this as a hand-out, it can feature your monthly special(s) while keeping consistent in branding your name and logo to the customer.
