Cross Media Marketing

Reach Relevancy Results

Cross-media marketing solutions enable you to combine the reach of variable data printing with the precision of web and email communication to create powerful marketing campaigns. These campaigns utilize variable data printing, personalized URL's (PURLs) and targeted emails to help you reach, and then track, your desired target audience.

The cross-media approach can get you the results you are looking for. A campaign typically includes a direct mail piece, with a call out line to the recipient and would include a personalized URL printed on the piece for them to visit and communicate with you. You are then able to directly track and communicate with potential customers who respond online and subsequently follow up with targeted emails. cross media marketing purls

Studies show that the mere act of including a person's name in the URL can increase response rates by as much as 30% or more when executed properly. Once directed to the highly relevant site, the prospect and or customer willingly share valuable data that can be used in future marketing efforts.

Welcome to Web 2.0

Sometimes called the "New Internet” this second generation of the world wide web is not about technology; it's all about personalization. Now relevant information is delivered in a very personal manner. User-generated content, instant results and personalized interactions create higher response rates and increase the reach of the marketer. With the use of Cross-Media Marketing, consumers are communicated to as individuals, not as one of the masses.

The dashboard is also great for viewing campaign details in graph format and estimating the return on investment for the campaign.
