Strategic direct mail relaunch lifted performance for womenswear brand

A fast-growing womenswear brand was in search of improved mail campaign management and execution, while retaining high performance. Franklin Madison Direct relaunched the brand into mailboxes with a systematic testing approach that included a fresh creative strategy. To further enhance offline campaign performance, Surround™ was activated to target prospects through display advertisements during and after the direct mail in-home window. This new approach to direct mail surpassed the average return on ad spend (ROAS) of their previous agency and generated hundreds of mail-attributable orders. Impressed by the campaign results, the brand chose FM Direct as their direct mail partner for subsequent acquisition campaigns. The brand’s revived direct mail program now includes both solo mail and shared mail, as well as retention campaigns targeting lapsed and existing customers.

The Problem

Efficient campaign management was elusive for a fast-growing womenswear company, limiting performance gains.

The Solution

ROAS increased by 16%, and direct mail became a foundational growth channel.

The Outcome

The campaign generated 3,500+ orders, $1.3M+ in revenue, and a 5x return on ad spend.
