Mailings or Email?

What’s the best way to communicate? It’s not either mail or email. Both have their pros and cons. Email is a relatively cheap and easy way to communicate with large numbers of people quickly. A mailing can make your customers feel more valued. Use both to promote your brand, instil customer loyalty and generate an action to purchase.

57% of people said that receiving mail makes them feel more valued. Only 17% said this of email.

When it's important...

Research by Royal Mail shows that mail is viewed as important, believable and reliable whereas email is seen as an incredibly effective way to deliver communications that are quick, smart and informal. For example purchase and delivery confirmations or any comms that are time critical or triggered by customer activity. You can adapt your communication choice to fit your customer’s needs.

Better chance of success

A mailing allows you to get totally creative and you can send an example of your product in the post. Unlike an email where you have one chance to sell based on your subject line. Email recipients spend less than 2 seconds glancing at an email, a further 20% will spend between 2 and 8 seconds on an email. The total average time spent on an email is 11 seconds. That is assuming your email doesn’t become automatically filtered into a Spam folder. The rise of email spam and phishing scams, malware and viruses has meant more emails never reach the end recipient even if you’re campaign is ethical and genuine.
