The Database

What makes direct mail marketing effective? Building and maintain a good database.

A database can be built from a number of sources:

  1. Accounting software including MYOB & Quickbooks
  2. MySQL, SQL, Access
  3. Excel or simple text files
  4. Purchased from a database list provider

The local councils are a great place to start also. For example, if you're in the building industry, why not purchase a list of new home approvals each month.

Why not run a competition? This is a great way of building a database quickly. See our case study below for an example.

Alternatively, you can purchase a list of preferred demographics. To see an example of what type of data is available, click here.

Don’t have a database or can’t find what you’re looking for? We can help you build your own – just email us.

Case Study - Trail Bike Shop Concise designed a promotion to be run at the Spring Fair to collect information, helping to build their customer database. Over 300 entries were collected and the following week we sent out a letter direct to those people and followed up with a sms on the morning of the sale.
Cost: <$1,000
Response: They sold half of their floor stock on the first day.
