I'm sending out some post cards - to people I know and past clients. Any ideas on who else I can mail these to? I have a few post card stamps left...
 
When I do my open house I'm going to take some invites to the bank I do my biz with, and also give some to my hubby to give to the gals at work... other than the past guest and such I will be going to my neighbors to drop some off. I am also looking in to doing the open house with a Gold Canyon Demonstrator so she will be bringing in her clients as well.
 
I mail mine to everyone I can think of! You never know!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What are postcard mailings, and how can they enhance my open house success?

Postcard mailings are promotional materials sent directly to potential customers' mailboxes. They can enhance your open house success by reaching individuals outside your immediate network, increasing visibility, and attracting new attendees who may not be aware of your events.

How do I create an effective postcard for my open house?

An effective postcard should include eye-catching visuals, a clear message about the open house, the date and time, and a call to action. Make sure to highlight any special offers or unique features of the event to entice recipients to attend.

What are some strategies for targeting the right audience with my postcard mailings?

To target the right audience, consider demographics such as age, income level, and interests that align with your products. Use local mailing lists or services that allow you to filter recipients based on these criteria, ensuring your postcards reach individuals likely to be interested in your offerings.

How can I measure the success of my postcard mailings?

You can measure the success of your postcard mailings by tracking attendance at your open house, collecting feedback from attendees, and monitoring any increase in sales or inquiries following the event. Additionally, including a unique promo code or RSVP link can help you gauge the effectiveness of your campaign.

What is the best time to send out postcards for an open house event?

The best time to send out postcards is typically 2-4 weeks before your open house. This timeframe allows potential attendees to plan ahead while still keeping the event fresh in their minds. Consider sending a reminder postcard a week before the event for added impact.
