The Situation
The Tradesmen LLC is a home renovations contractor located in Sunapee, NH. They were looking for a creative way to let homeowners with older homes know about their services so they contacted PostcardMania for ideas.
The Solution
They decided on a direct mail campaign that targeted homeowners in their area. Their postcard design featured pictures of their handy work, a shared feature in many home renovator campaigns.
The Tradesmen LLC’s postcard design included:
- A glowing 5 star review from a previous client touching on their level of professionalism
- An offer for a $250 discount off of any project the recipient decides to go with
- Marketing copy that explains that they are capable of anything that the recipient wants
Because The Tradesmen LLC provides full-service construction repairs in a home, they needed to target homeowners and not renters; especially those with older, deteriorating homes. So, they used a mailing list of homeowners with old homes to laser target only the most qualified prospects for their service.
The Results
They spent $2,922.12 with postage included, and so far, they have made about $36,000. That’s a 1,132% ROI!
