Direct mail has experienced a resurgence over the last couple years and continues to grow. Why? Because it works and people like it. Best of all, it easily interfaces with virtually any other type of advertising you are doing to effectively create a true multi-channel program.
In this session, Keith Goodman, a 30 year direct mail veteran will share new ideas as well as some important fundamentals you might have forgotten. Learn about some of the new data resources to help you better target your campaigns, audience specific messaging, new printing formats and technology and how to combine your DM programs with mobile technology.
