DOs and DON'Ts for Direct Mail
Learn what movers should do or avoid to earn the best response rate.
DOs: |
Contact Homeowners Soon After They List Their HomesReach homeowners as quickly as possible before they are ready to make a decision and ahead of the competition for the best results.
|
Use the Power of the PostcardPostcards offer longevity and give homeowners a physical reminder to call you when they’re ready to hire a mover, even if it’s weeks after the postcard was received.
|
Mail to More New Listings vs. Pending ListingsBy the time a homeowner reaches the pending stage, most have already hired a mover. If you have a limited budget it is better to mail to more new listings than split between new and pending mailings.
|
DON'Ts: |
Don't Use Standard MailStandard mail can take up to 2 weeks to be delivered, missing a critical window of opportunity. It also does not provide returns which can alert movers to an underperforming list.
|
Don’t Rely Solely on Easy to Forget MarketingAds can be ignored, and emails are easily deleted. Movers who use postcards get calls from homeowners weeks and months after they’ve arrived.
|
Don’t Use PENDING LEADS that Haven’t Been Quality CheckedOur Pending Leads are re-verified to confirm they are still homeowner owned and occupied. You won’t get a response from an unoccupied pending listing.
