What's Included:
Cooperative Direct Mail Advertising:
Businesses receive the benefits from targeted direct mail while sharing in the cost of mailing, postage, insertion order, address lists, delivery... all these costs are shared with the other businesses in the pack (and with us) making direct mail advertising campaigns more affordable.
Comparable to SOLO Mail:
The message is featured on a "stand alone" design piece. Customers can view your message with zero distractions from other "advertising noise".
Why Direct Mail?
It is mailed straight to people's homes for message conveniency and audience accuracy. With Direct Mail Advertising, you choose where it's mailed while eliminating as much wasted coverage as possible.
The Beauty of the Blue Envelope:
Customers open them FOR the advertisements. Meaning, they are ready, willing and able to absorb businesses’ invites to use their products and services.
Why all the coupons?
Valpak Direct Mail Advertising is based on Incentive Marketing. This strategy makes it easier for customers to follow through with trying something different from their normal habits and routine. It helps them make the decision of “where we going to dinner” on Friday night. Or, “my tooth hurts” and haven’t been to a dentist in a while but you’ve seen one recently in the Valpak you’ll try.
Why choose a “coupon” to make your decisions?
The Valpak design’s flexibility allows only a small portion for coupons, offers, specials, discounts…. the rest of the design space is pure business branding. Customers can experience the feel of the business before responsing and taking action. Design matters greatly and our design team works hard to ensure the best message and “feel” get’s communicated.
Why Valpak Advertising?
Being part of a Nationwide Team as well as our local partners, we are blessed with marketing/advertising/business knowledge from every industry featured in our economy. If we don't have the answer in our small local team, one of our Valpak comrades in Seattle or New York will.
