I am representing a dry cleaning business. The business wants to expand its current sales with a pick up and delivery services, aimed at upper-class members of society - the type that often has a hired help that screens their mail.
My boss wants me to produce 500 names of upper-class clients in order to send them direct mail with a $100 coupon. The leaflet will also push our three USP's:
- Green dry cleaning
- No dry cleaning smell (due to our sandwater process)
- superior quality (and your clothes last longer)
Our prices are about 3 times as high as our competitors, but we don't want to compromise on this, as we have a good turnover and a superior product that justifies the price.
My boss is confident we can achieve a 20% conversion, meaning that we gain 100 clients from 500 targeted mailers. That seems overly optimistic to me.
My Questions:
1) How can we improve the conversion rate of our direct mailer (taken in account that hired helps screen the mail for these high earners)
2) Are there any other marketing techniques that perhaps would be more suitable at reaching these consumers?
Thanks for your insights,
John
