Using handwriting to get their attention

Posted by Wildfire Marketing Group

Do you remember the last time you went to the mailbox? Chances are that you shuffled past the bills, set aside the credit card and mortgage offers and perhaps glanced at a postcard or two but when you got to that handwritten envelope , you probably stopped what you were doing and opened it right there on the spot. You’re not the only person that reacts this way and you can use that to help market your company.

Handwriting adds a personal touch that can’t be achieved with any graphic design technique or font. It’s that personal touch causes response rates to increase dramatically when it’s used in direct mail. Obviously you can hand-write names and addresses on envelopes but it doesn’t have to stop there. Handwritten sales or thank you letters can have a tremendous impact and you can even add handwriting to any of your printed marketing materials.
