Mail channel earns thousands of sales and millions in revenue

CONSUMER/RETAIL

FactorTest™ established direct mail as a scalable, high-ROI acquisition channel

After a DTC sleep brand had great success with online marketing strategies, it was time to expand into offline channels for sustainable growth. The brand launched into mailboxes with FactorTest, testing a combination of five direct mail lists, three creative packages, and one offer to identify the best performers. Results from the first campaign quickly beat the ROAS goal and proved the viability of the channel, positioning direct mail as an evergreen growth strategy. In less than 15 months, direct mail has grossed nearly 6,000 sales, $7MM in revenue, and produced a ROAS of 5x.
