Golden Rule Cleaning

The Situation

Golden Rule Cleaning is a residential and commercial cleaning service located in Springfield, Illinois. They were looking for a better way to let businesses know about their services so they contacted PostcardMania for ideas.

The Solution

They decided on direct mail marketing campaigns that focused on different prospective entities in their area. Their design featured their staff in action, a common theme among cleaning campaigns.

Golden Rule Cleaning’s postcard included:

• A headline that immediately communicates the card’s message
• A list of the services offered and their availability to clean
• An offer for both residential and commercial prospects.

The biggest reason for this campaigns success was the consistency of their mailings. For an entire year, they sent out monthly blasts of 15,000 postcards. This consistency ensured that they became a cleaning stable in Springfield, for whatever you needed them for!

Their mailing lists were also a massive part in their campaigns success. They sent out mailings to both Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) lists and a list of 4,300 local businesses. These mailing lists ensured they were reaching the full range of entities they could service, both people living at home and commercial businesses.

The Results

Nearly doubled yearly revenue!
