Why Direct Mail?
Declining Mail Volume
From 2006 to 2020 mail volume dropped from 213 billion pieces to 120 billion pieces -- a whopping 50% decline.
Direct Mail Skyrockets
While overall mail volume has declined, since 2006 response rates to direct mail have risen 194%.
Higher Open Rates
Direct mail open rates can reach 90% as opposed to 23% for marketing emails.
It's Personal
Adding a name to your direct mail piece can increase response rates by 135%, according to a 2017 study. And the DMA stat book reports that targeting on a 1:1 level increases response rates by at least 50%.
