A successful marketing plan relies heavily on the pulling-power of advertising copy. Writing result-oriented ad copy is difficult, as it must appeal, entice, and convince consumers to take action. There is no magic formula to write perfect ad copy; it is based on a number of factors, including ad placement, demographic, even the consumer’s mood when they see your ad. So how is any writer supposed to pen a stunning piece of advertising
There is a secret, or so it seems, in the catalogue industry that has not gotten out of the bag yet. Why is it a secret? It is probably not intended to be that way, but it just happens to remain a ‘not-known datum’. So, what’s the secret, you ask!?!?
That successful cataloguers use postcards to market!
Bah, hum bug, you say! Why would they do that? How can they sell their wares?
Simply and easily. Postcards work because they are inexpensive and they get the attention of the prospective buyer who would like to shop in their particular catalogue. Many big catalogue companies do it – JC Penny, Spiegel, Brighton – they all use postcards.

Those are definitely objections, but not necessarily sound ones. Let’s break them down. Just think about it. They get your catalogue (that you spend $4 per piece sending out) and then they throw it away immediately. They do the same with a postcard, but postcards are cheap - .35 cents (that includes postage, design, mailing list, etc.) compared to 4.00 – you could afford to continue to send those postcards out until they finally decide to order your catalogue. You can’t do that with catalogues, it’s too expensive!
The trick with postcards is to advertise on your postcard one of your best selling items and mail it to your prospective buyer list. Then design another postcard with another one of your best selling items and mail it to the same list one to two weeks later. Do the same again and again for about four to five postcards. Make an offer on your postcard, like, you will send them a catalogue for free and 10% off their first order if they order within 30 days of ordering their catalogue.
Then, we you have exhausted those five postcards on that prospective list, you hit ‘em again. Same rotation of postcards mailed out every one to two week
