In order to boost sales and the response of your direct response marketing campaign, we recommend the following steps:

  • Send a letter, special promotion, sank catalog, etc. to your mailing list often to check the quality of your list, you can insert the date & your addresses with the returns from the U.S post office.
  • Run a very small ad in a magazine or newspaper with max of 15 words. Describe in a simple headline and one or two brief phrases what you have to sell and then ask people to contact you for more information, don’t forget to include a small photo of the product this will eliminate the need for a wordy description.
  • Create a landing page on the web with more detailed direct response information, and well targeted  keywords, google will drive leads to your landing page.
  • Use testimonials on you web landing page and direct mail letters. This definitely will boost sales and sign ups.
  • Trade customers list with a related business to boost your list size, for free.
  • Give away a sample or a fun gift (after all who doesn’t love receiving gifts?)
