Holiday Direct Mail

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Holiday time is here again. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza, the first snowfall, or nothing at all, there is no denying that the world is different during this time of year. People are more generous with their time and money, making it the perfect time to being a brand new direct mailing campaign, specially geared toward those who want to do good will for the holidays.

If you run a charitable organization, such as a homeless shelter, church group, or soup kitchen, the Christmas holiday season may be the perfect time to use your direct mailing campaign to earn both time and money donations. Send your direct mail to people in your community, asking for time donations for Thanksgiving and Christmas at a soup kitchen, monetary donations for a homeless shelter, and even for donated presents for underprivileged children in your homeless shelter, battered women’s shelter, or church group. No child should be left out of the holiday seasons due to lack of funds. Ask people around your community to donate winter clothes, toys, and books and to wrap them festively. Then on Christmas, you will be able to share the holiday spirit with children in need.

ProMarketing Leads can help you design a targeted direct mailing list that will help to generate holiday giving. Remember, a holiday direct mailings campaign is different from your regular direct mailing campaign. Use festive paper and colored envelopes. Opt for metallic swirly writing and limited-edition seasonal stamps. For a religious touch, add a nativity season background. For a non-religious Christmas touch, add a picture of Santa or a Christmas tree. For a touch of Hanukkah, add a menorah and opt for lots of blues and yellows. To simply play up the season, look for paper and stamps that have snowflakes and snowmen. These are simple, silly touches, but will help get people in the giving holiday spirit.

Once you have your design, give ProMarketing Leads a call. We will work closely with you to design your targeted direct mailing campaign. We can get addresses for those around the community who regularly donate to charities, or who have volunteered at holiday events in the past. We can even reach out to parish or synagogue communities. Make this holiday season an extra-special one…and let ProMarketing Leads help.

Direct Mail Donations

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

When people think of direct mail, they usually think of advertisements, flyers, and take-out menus. However, direct mail can accomplish many different things, including soliciting donations or support for a good cause. If you work for a non-profit or charitable organization, you may want to consider taking advantage of a direct mailing campaign.

Here at ProMarketing Leads, we help numerous clients develop a targeted direct mailing list to help promote their products or services. However, we also have targeted direct mail lists that are designed specifically for those who are seeking charitable donations. Our lists include people of a certain income bracket, those who belong to fundraising or charitable groups, and those who have previously donated time or money to charities. We also offer lists of people who have shown interest in certain charitable causes, such as education, animal protection, hungry and needy families, and home-building.

If your non-profit organization would like to target a specific group of homes to ask for charitable donations, ProMarketing Leads can help. We can help you design a personalized direct mailing list specifically targeted to those who are most likely to be interested in your organization and most interested in donating their money or their time. Give us a call today toll-free at 866-397-2772 to discuss your non-profit organization and the type of work you do. In no time at all we can put together a targeted list that is sure to generate time and money donations and contributions. At ProMarketing Leads we are always happy and eager to work with charitable companies, and will be happy to work with your team and your budget. We look forward to your call.
