Do you want to enjoy the benefit of higher conversion rates without bidding for highly competitive keywords on Google?
Are you interested in targeting UK residents rather than people from another country browsing the web with UK IP addresses?
If you answered yes to the questions above, then direct mail may be the best solution for you.
Direct mail marketing has existed pre-internet and is considered an essential part of traditional marketing. However, the growth of the internet and big tech companies like Google and Facebook has made digital marketing the go-to method of marketing. This is because these digital channels made it easy to reach millions of people around the world at a fraction of the cost it took to do the same via traditional media.
The competition for ad placements by digital marketers around the world has increased the cost of digital ad impressions, click throughs and customer acquisition. This makes direct mail marketing an appealing option to supplement your marketing strategy and drive growth for your business.
The Data on Direct Mail
ROI and Conversion Rate
A 2017 study by Marketing Charts showed that direct mail had a median ROI of 29%, behind email (124%), social media (30%) but ahead of paid search (23%) and online display (16%). Another report released in 2018 by the Direct Mail Association found direct mail to have a 4.4% conversion rate, compared to email’s 0.12%.
Trust and Brand Awareness
A 2015 Neuromarketing study by Canada Post showed that direct mail requires 21% less cognitive effort to process than digital media and elicits a much higher brand recall. Post-exposure memory tests validated what the cognitive load test revealed about direct mail’s memory encoding capabilities. When participants were asked to cite the brand (company name) of an advertisement they had just seen, the recall rate was 70% higher if they were exposed to a direct mail piece (75%) rather than a digital ad (44%). Another study conducted in 2015 at Temple University found that paper advertising activated the ventral striatum area of the brain more than digital media. Previous studies of successful ad campaigns found that the activation of the ventral striatum was an indicator of desire and valuation.
A 2018 report by the Joint Industry Committee (JICMAIL) showed that about 27% of mail is still ‘live’ within the household after approximately one month.
The Cambridge Analytica scandal in 2018 and the GDPR legislation is indicative of the atmosphere of mistrust surrounding digital media.
What conclusion can we derive from the studies above? Direct mail is still a worthwhile marketing strategy that can create phenomenal results when mixed with other forms of marketing.
