Multi-channel marketing lifts conversions and drives 2,000+ unique leads for investment brand
Having experienced success with direct mail as a standalone channel, a personal investment brand was looking for proof that an integrated campaign would lift performance and generate more qualified leads. Franklin Madison Direct set up a testing environment to demonstrate the advantages of operating a combined direct mail and digital campaign over direct mail alone. The brand began their journey with Surround, employing a strategic sequence of timely digital touches based on the corresponding direct mail drop. Compared to a holdout audience of prospects that only received direct mail, FM Direct’s multi-channel digital and direct mail strategy delivered an exceptional lift in campaign performance and outperformed the control group.
The Problem
An investment brand sought proof that adding digital to direct mail would improve lead generation and overall performance.
The Solution
Surround integrated timely digital ads with direct mail, creating a multi-touch strategy that maximized audience engagement.
The Outcome
The integrated campaign lifted conversion rates by 85% and generated 2,000+ unique leads and 11,500+ conversions.
