Direct mail and digital strategy revived lost leads and drove sustained growth

A top-ranked meal delivery service enlisted Franklin Madison Direct to make up for lost ground after a significant dip in digital leads, costing them precious sales. First, FM Direct launched the client into the 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 Surround™ to integrate a digital campaign targeted at Facebook and email. The multi-channel strategy catapulted sales even further, priming the client for recurring monthly mailings, ongoing digital campaigns and ultimately, continual growth.

FM Direct tested direct mail creative, offers, and lists, then integrated digital campaigns to enhance reach and conversions.
