Description
Even with a great offer, message and list, your mailings may be ignored. Why? Science tells us people are hard-wired to behave in certain ways. We've developed shortcuts for processing information. And we make certain decisions instinctively. Discover how your mailpieces can tap into these automatic behaviors. Learn to leverage "eye magnet" words, the human need for consistency, and compliance triggers. In this example-jammed session, you'll see dozens of proven creative approaches that are working in the market right now, including many double-digit response rates. Learn 13 techniques to embed into your mailings that make people actually choose to open/read/respond.
