<ol>
<li>I want to generate leads for my business </li>
<li>You order a direct mail list from infoUSA&trade; or Sales Genie&trade; or some other list house.</li>
<li>You find a printer to print your direct mail pieces.</li>
<li>You create the direct mail piece and write the copy.</li>
<li>You coordinate with the print company and send them the art work and direct mail list.</li>
<li>The printer prints and mails the direct mail piece out.</li>
<li>You wait and you wait for responses to come in. </li>
</ol>
<p><br /><strong>The usual results &hellip;</strong><br /><br />After waiting for two weeks, you come to the conclusion that you are only getting 7 responses off of the mailing to 5,000 prospects.&nbsp; I just spent $400 for the list and $3,500 to get 7 responses? What the &amp;$@*&amp;)$#@%! is going on here?<br />&nbsp;<br /><strong>The reality &hellip;</strong><br /><br />This reminds us of a famous quote by Albert Einstein &hellip; <em>&ldquo;Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.&rdquo;</em><br /><br /><strong>Marketing In Color's unusual approach &hellip;</strong><br /><br />Marketing In Color takes the usual approaches and beats them up and improves or reinvents them so that you don&rsquo;t have to. Our direct mail process starts with a brighter, smarter approach.<br /><br /></p>
<ol>
<li>We ask you what you know, what you expect, and what you are willing to put into the project to achieve your expectations.&nbsp; What are your objectives?</li>
<li>We ask for you customer list, so that we can model or clone your customers, or better yet, your best customers to develop a smart, truly targeted prospect list within your trading area. We experience significantly higher response rates with modeled prospect lists.</li>
<li>We assess your brand positioning and messaging to your target market.&nbsp; We get to know your customers and how you communicate with them.&nbsp; It may mean that the positioning may be wrong or your messaging is off, but we will give you a factual understanding of that and make recommendations to build a strong brand.</li>
<li>We have print partners that will quickly and cost effectively execute the direct mail program on schedule and on budget.</li>
<li>You give the go ahead, and the program is executed with precision and you get what we are expecting, and that is results!</li>
