Postcard Marketing Tips
Promote an Upcoming Event
Printing postcards continue to be an amazing marketing tool as you can easily send them to an audience of potential customers that are likely to attend the event. Similar to flyers, they can include the benefits of attending and additional event details. For example, you may want to include a contest or a list of door prizes to help increase event awareness and increase participation. The benefits of choosing one are that you have the option to select from a variety of poster sizes and printing options to meet you and your business needs.
Advertise a Sale Promotion or One Time Sale
It’s easy to create an urgency to attract customers to make a purchase within a defined time period. Handing them out often keeps the products and sale on their mind. Choose a one time service or product that you can offer at a discounted price to your customers. Include terms such as “One Day Only” and “This Weekend” or “10% Off” can create the urgency and something the customers can’t refuse! This may help with attracting new customers.
