Have you been looking for the right tools to advertise your hardware store? Well, look no further than direct mail with Town Money Saver, which gives you everything you need to target the right people with the right message in the right areas.
Here’s why.
Actions
65 percent of hardware store shoppers took action in the past 12 months because of direct mail from a hardware store, according to AudienceSCAN. That means well over half of the people who saw a direct mail piece from a hardware store either visited the business, called it, visited its website or social media, or made a purchase.
Response Rates
According to the Direct Marketing Association, customers respond more to direct mail – and it isn’t even close. Direct mail household response rates are 5 to 9 times higher than any other advertising medium. And that gap is growing every year.
Furthermore, response rates from direct mail (4.4 percent) are 37 times more effective than email marketing (0.12 percent).
Targeting locations
Did you know most customers of hardware stores come from within 3 miles of the location, according to AdMall? The ability to target people in these small radii gives direct mail an advantage by making sure you aren’t spending money to reach people who likely wouldn’t visit.
Attracting new and repeat customers
AdMall® estimates the value of a new hardware store customer at nearly $2,000 over a ten-year period. So getting and keeping customers is important. Consider marketing to millennials, who are poised to be a major market for these products.
For more than 25 years, Town Money Saver has been making local advertising easy for businesses. So we can help you bring in new customers, and our formula is simple: be affordable, convenient, and targeted.
