Part of your success is how you go about sending the mailer. In fact, if you don’ t cross all your “t’s” and dot your “i’s”, the post office may not consider it EDDM and therefore you’ll pay a higher rate. But the most important consideration is the sales message of your EDDM mailer. Some “Don’ts” for your EDDM campaign: • Don’t run the same X rooms for $X as your competitors. • Don’ t send them only one mailer and stop. • Don’t forget to give a killer offer. • Don’t forget to include the EDDM insignia in the address area. Some “Do’s” for your EDDM campaign: • Do give benefits of your service. • Do set your apart from your competition. • Do budget to send 3 postcards to each household. • Do send the postcards 7 days apart. When getting your EDDM mailer printed, if you include the proper EDDM insigia, you won’t need to label the mailers. All your need to do is stack them in groups of 50 or 100, put a cover sheet at the top of each stack, and take them to the same post office that the mail route you chose delivers to. This is super easy stuff. After you’ve sent your first mailer, don’t stop there. Mail a second mailer to the same mail route 7 days later. Then mail a third mailer 7 days after the second mailer. After that, don’t mail to the same route for two to three months. Then start the process all over again. After a few cycles, you’ll become known as the neighborhood cleaning company.
