Consumer/Retail

FM Direct enhances cookware brand’s direct mail strategy with data-driven creative and digital integration

Ready to push the limits of its existing direct mail performance without sacrificing return on ad spend (ROAS), a leading cookware brand challenged Franklin Madison Direct to elevate their program. FM Direct hit the ground running with 400k mail pieces across five curated lists, three creative formats, and two distinct offers. 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 approach not only allowed the brand to amplify impressions and experiment with new formats but also delivered a ROAS of over 5x. The success of this campaign positioned the brand for continued growth and enhanced its targeting capabilities both online and offline.

The Problem

The cookware brand aimed to push direct mail limits while maintaining high ROAS and testing new targeting strategies.

The Solution

FM Direct used data-driven audience selection, Surround™ digital integration, and multiple creative formats to optimize direct mail results.

The Outcome

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