What You Should Avoid In Postcard Marketing

By Christopher Murphy


Even after the invention of technology, postcards are still used as a way of relaying information. It may seem like an old method, but it actually is as effective as any other. However, you need to find ways of making the card interesting and not all plain by for example using one catchy but relevant image or and sticking to the main purpose of the card. Below are common mistakes people make in postcard marketing.

In advertising, you must be persistent on the marketing strategy. People are captivated by adverts, and they stick with them for as long as they are repeated and people get used to. If things were only advertised once no one would remember and not many would be keen to purchase the product or service. However, if you keep sending the postcards repeatedly, the clients will be able to familiarize.

Another major mistake is sending an impersonal card. This means that the card is too formal and the client is unable to relate to it. At the same time, it does not mean that the postcard should not be formal. The secret is to pass across the message in a friendly way. Statistics show that friendly postcards get more replies as compared to the serious formal ones.

There is a process for posting mail. Make sure the method you use in the mailing is effective. For example, you should invest in first-class stamps. These actually have benefits such as the return to sender option in case the note does not make it to the destination. Also, make sure that you post the cards at the rime the postal services are least active.

You do not have to always go to a professional for printing unless the image is complicated or you cannot be able to do it on your own. This will actually save you a great deal of cash. You can do the smaller and less complicated postcards on your own as long as you have ink and a printer. The only time you will need to spend money is when you cannot print on your own.

Do not make a sales pitch on the note. Rather make it as captivating as possible and then direct the client to where they can get more information or make the purchases they desire. This is a very simple yet effective way of marketing. If on the other hand, the note is dull and boring, people will not participate even if you relay all the needed information.

The image you use, the headline and that language are some of those factors that play a major role in how well or poorly your advertisement will fair. Make sure that the image will attractive to the eye stays in context with the contents of the note. Use simple and easy to understand the language to avoid making it hard for the recipients to understand.

Never leave out the needed details. You might do a great job in marketing the product or service. The client will want to learn more, and they will want to reach out to you for more information. Make sure your contact information is present.
