- Design a sharp looking, to the point card with a strong offer
- Use a quality printer that knows about sizing and direct mail needs
- Use your current client / customer list
- Rent a list of potential clients / customers
- Find a mailing house or mailing service to save on postage costs
- Figure out a time frame to mail the cards over
- Be ready for the responses
- Do mailings on a frequent basis (generally is not a one time shot!!!)
