Looking for a budget-friendly way to reach a large audience in a specific area? Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM®) might be your answer!
Here's the scoop:
- What it is: EDDM lets you send postcards or flyers to every address on a chosen mail carrier route within a ZIP code. Think of blanketing a neighborhood with your message.
- Cost-effective: EDDM is cheaper than traditional direct mail because it skips personalized touches like names and doesn't need individual scanning.
- Big impact: Choose large postcards or even full-page mailers for maximum visual punch.
- Target specific areas: Dominate specific neighborhoods or ZIP codes by saturating their mail routes.
But before you jump in:
- No personalization: You can't use names or individual property info, so it's less targeted than traditional mail.
- Less control: You can't choose specific recipients, so you reach everyone on the route, including those not interested.
- Design matters: With more space, it's easy to overcrowd your mailers, making them hard to read.
Is EDDM right for you?
- Great for: Geographical farming, brand awareness, event promotion in specific areas.
- Not ideal for: Highly targeted campaigns, personalized messages, small budgets.
Ready to try EDDM? Here's how:
- Define your goals: What do you want to achieve? Brand awareness, event promotion, lead generation?
- Consider your budget: EDDM is cheaper, but reaching everyone on a route can add up.
