1) Associate with Values
• Ideology is a very powerful force. Align brand with one and its followers will seek you out. You can build a brand that associates your company with certain values, and your products with certain benefits.
• Some say you should choose polarizing values some will love and others will hate. Controversy generates publicity. But when uncertain, choose universal values everyone can relate to.
• An organic food business for instance can be marketed as a political statement against animal abuse, or as a lifestyle for healthy living, or as an advocacy for environmental protection. Although everyone agrees with these values, not everyone lives by them. Asking people to use your products can be seen as promoting these universal values as well.
• It can be about anything, what is important is that your clients connect to you emotionally which can translate to brand loyalty. Use postcards to market these advocacy and your customers will associate your business with these values.
2) Personalize Your Service

• Information: With all the new products coming out on a day-to-day basis, customers are wary of change. If you’re business carries a new product, be sure to differentiate your items from other products in the industry.
• Make a list of things your customers can do with your offering they otherwise wouldn’t be able to do. Include practical tips to let the users know the value of the product in their day-to-day lives.
• Location: Brick and mortar stores who find location an inconvenience are extending their services online. You can offer free delivery for a minimum set of purchases. Include an order form with your postcard or direct them to your website.
3) Make Marketing and Advertising Cost A Non-Factor
• Avoid a price competition. It will group your brand with generic products with low profit margins but hope to earn from bigger volume. If price is a barrier, find ways to get around costs without giving discounts. Offer to give free assessments, cleaning or maintenance, and other related services with your products. You can also offer money back guarantees.
• Use prints like postcards effectively. Apply action into these ideas and carry out your message out into your clients homes or offices. Direct mail marketing is one of the best ways to help, support and motivate your clients to purchase, use and patronize your business.
Postcard printing is an easy way to differentiate your business and to carve out your market share. Use the full color front to create your signature style, and the copy to convey your unique offer.
