Reaching Out to Maybe Guests: A Postcard Idea

In summary, postcards are an effective tool for reaching out to potential guests due to their eye-catching nature, tangibility, and cost-effectiveness. When designing postcards, it's important to include contact information, a brief description of the business and services, current promotions or incentives, and a call to action. Personalizing postcards can also increase their impact, through handwritten notes or signatures and variable printing. The frequency of postcard mailings depends on the business and target audience, and it's important to find a balance between staying top-of-mind and not overwhelming potential guests. When designing postcards, less is more, with attention-grabbing images, clear messaging, and visible contact information and call to action. Consider using a professional

I'm thinking about putting together a postcard for those guests that checked maybe on the door prize slip, but I didn't get a chance to talk to them at the show. Anyone have any suggestions or anything like this. I can't seem to reach people when I call and most don't put their e-mail address. Thanks.
 
Re: postcardsWeigh this one carefully. You have to call to make the contact, even if you spend the money to create and mail the postcard. Customers, for the most part, will not contact you (in response to a phone call or to a mailing).

When you make phone calls (and you don't get an answer), tell them who you are, that you're sorry you missed them and that you will call them back at a later time (this lets them know that one of these times they might as well answer because you are not giving up!) and say "if you'd like to call me back first, my number is 123-4567".
 
Re: postcardsPostcards are a great idea in addition to the phone calls, but not alone. Good luck!
 

1. How can I use postcards to reach out to potential guests?

Postcards are a great tool for reaching out to potential guests because they are eye-catching, tangible, and cost-effective. You can use them to introduce yourself and your business, share information about upcoming events or promotions, or simply to say thank you for considering hosting a party with us.

2. What should I include on my postcards?

When designing your postcards, be sure to include your contact information, a brief description of your business and services, and any current promotions or incentives. You may also want to include a call to action, such as asking recipients to visit your website or call you for more information.

3. How can I personalize my postcards for maximum impact?

To make your postcards more personal, consider adding handwritten notes or signatures. You can also use variable printing to address each postcard to the recipient by name, and include personalized messages or offers based on their interests or needs.

4. How often should I send out postcards to potential guests?

The frequency of your postcard mailings will depend on your business and target audience. Some consultants send out postcards quarterly, while others may send them out monthly or even weekly. It's important to find a balance between staying top-of-mind and not overwhelming potential guests with too much mail.

5. What are some tips for designing effective postcards for reaching out to potential guests?

When designing your postcards, keep in mind that less is more. Use eye-catching images and clear, concise messaging to grab the recipient's attention. It's also important to make sure your contact information and call to action are easily visible. Finally, consider using a professional design or template to ensure your postcards have a polished and cohesive look.
