When it comes to direct marketing campaigns, it’s human nature to think big. Whether it’s rolling out an email blast for an upcoming customer appreciation day or sending out a holiday themed Sales or Service postcard, we all have a tendency to want to “wow” the recipient with bright colors, killer graphics and an awesome call to action.
In reality, you’re re-inventing the wheel and over-thinking the whole initiative.
It’s always a good time to remind yourself that the mantra of “Keep It Simple, Stupid” is still a best practice in your direct marketing campaigns.
While keeping that in mind, it should also be noted to remember these other simple aspects when brainstorming for that upcoming program.
