3. Who Says Direct Mail is Dead? “Those marketers who still fully embrace traditional marketing tools such as print catalogs and direct mail have an opportunity to stand out to consumers bombarded by digital pitches.” “But these print channels rarely stand alone. Many of the brands that use print media within their direct marketing efforts weave digital tightly into their campaigns. This approach is becoming a must.” Using direct mail as a foot into the consumer’s door—and then inviting them to connect via another channel—makes great sense. "We're seeing mail being used in some tremendous new ways—especially as part of integrated marketing campaigns," "You can use mail to launch a video on a smart phone, or to make quick purchases out of a catalog or a flyer. We're now able to measure and analyze all of these interactions—that's adding value for senders and causing marketers to give mail a fresh look.“ "Our industry needs to give all marketers a sense that mail can be used in new ways," "We need to drive a better understanding of the value mail brings to integrated marketing campaigns. Mail is the most effective channel for driving customers to a retail location and for driving customers to websites." - Patrick R. Donahoe, Postmaster General
