The Situation

When the owners of Glenway Auto Center in Florence, KY took over an existing car repair shop, they wanted to get the word out in the community and drum up some business, so they called PostcardMania.

The Solution

Our experts, who have helped more than 73,700 small business owners with their marketing, recommended a direct mail campaign that would saturate the area surrounding the auto repair shop.

Heres why the postcard was effective:

  • Trust logos (like the Better Business Bureau) help establish credibility with prospects
  • The coupon for a $19.95 oil change minimizes the risk of trying them out
  • The map shows recipients how close and convenient the shop is to their home
  • The bullet points on the back of the card are benefits, which tell prospects how Glenway Auto can help them

Glenway mailed 12,000 postcards to households within a 2-mile radius one time. We recommend multiple mailings for maximum return on investment, but they were pleased with their response after just one!

The Results

45 brand-new customers!

From just one mailing, 57 prospects came in to Glenway Auto Center with coupons from their postcard 45 of them brand-new customers generating $6,912.16 in income! If those drivers were happy with the service they received, they are likely to come back again and again for their auto maintenance needs!
