2018 - Direct Marketing Tactics for Non-Profits

Description

Join the Burnaby Board of Trade for this session on direct marketing, which can get your message directly into the hands of a highly-targeted audience. 

With a focus on non-profits, this session will explain what direct marketing is and how it can fit into a marketing strategy for organizations looking to engage directly with potential donors, volunteers or clients. In an era of clogged inboxes, unopened emails, and discerning consumers, direct mail offers a unique opportunity to deliver a message directly into the hands of your target market.  

Learn some new ideas, options and solutions for building mailing lists, targeting campaigns, and communicating to the people you want to engage with. 

PLUS -- bring samples marketing pieces you are currently mailing for a complimentary consultation on best practices!

While this session is focused on non-profits, it will have useful direct marketing information and tips for any business or organization.
