Getting Personal – How to Create Direct Campaigns Designed with Only “You” In Mind

As marketing channels continue to multiply and customer attention spans shrink, today’s marketing champions will be deemed not by the size or scope of their media, but by the level of engagement their message creates. While the means to reach consumers is easier than ever – via traditional advertising, sponsorship, outdoor and other forms of media – the chance to connect relies on the right balance of invitation and interaction. This presentation will teach audience members how to create powerful connections in the form of innovative, tangible Direct Mail pieces that, when combined with other advertising channels, create a meaningful and measurable mode of interaction that can captivate a variety of consumer audiences.

Key Takeaways:
• Learn how to effectively connect with consumers through messages that engage and resonate.
• Learn how personalization adds a new element of precision and relevancy to your campaign.
• Explore various media channels that work with Direct Mail and how to measure overall effectiveness.

He is an avid sports fan and ran competitively while in college. He still runs a few miles a day.
