Meal delivery brand revitalized growth with direct mail & digital integration
A top-ranked meal delivery company suffered a significant dip in digital leads costing them precious sales. The brand had already tried shared mail and was seeking a fresh approach to their direct marketing strategy. First, Franklin Madison Direct launched the client into the solo direct mail arena, undergoing several creative, offer and list tests within a two-month period. After experiencing staggering success in the mail channel, the client then leveraged FM Direct Surround to integrate a digital campaign targeted at Facebook and email. The multichannel strategy catapulted sales even further, priming the client for recurring monthly mailings, ongoing digital campaigns and ultimately, continual growth.
