WHY PRINT? While e-newsletters average click-through rates from 0.5 to 1.6%, a printed direct mail newsletter can generate a 3 to 5% response rate, according to an article in Graphics Arts magazine . Mailchimp pegs the average click-through for all marketing emails at 2.62% while Canada Post direct mail campaigns elicit 39% more attention (time spent reading). Studies show that 66% of consumers purchased a product because of direct mail. Even better than Direct Mail: Villager magazines are delivered by Canada Post to thousands of addresses in each of our ‘villages’ served. ALL about their local artisans and entrepreneurs, friends and neighbours, they’re read cover- to-cover, kept for posterity and read again. Contact your local Villager rep to get in on it!
