What is Print on Demand Direct Mail Fulfillment?
In terms of marketing strategies, direct mail is a form of print media marketing that delivers physical advertisements to a prospective customer’s mailbox. Direct mail services through ProList can look very different for each client. With customization options that help create the perfect mix of digital print components, the goal is to drive engagement, draw in more consumers or constituents, garner donations or memberships and/or increase brand awareness. When it comes to print on demand direct mail fulfillment services, businesses see the benefits in a few different ways.
Often used in conjunction with membership or program order fulfillment as well as acknowledgment processing, print on demand direct mail services means fulfilling items such as thank you or welcome mailings, along with other rewards and benefits if included, to members or donors based on their program models as the need arises. For example, ProList offers clients the opportunity to provide print materials in conjunction with packaged rewards or subscriptions, kits, promotional items, and even stand-alone enrollment and informational materials as well. In most cases, keeping a full inventory of these necessary print materials such as brochures, welcome letters, portfolios and product or program literature isn’t necessary or cost-effective. Printing in bulk has drawbacks especially if your messaging fluctuates or your business model changes. It also makes it almost impossible to uniquely personalize these items after the fact. This means not only could your printed inventory become outdated or the messaging moot, it’s not fully working as hard as it could to deliver customized messaging, which, in turn, makes a more lasting impression, increases interaction levels and boosts response.
Print on demand direct mail material can look very different for businesses. From informational materials to welcome packages, instructions on products and even membership service pamphlets, ProList can help your business create the perfect print on demand fulfillment programs.
We realize that membership programs and order fulfillments can’t always be predicted, and even more to the point, your packaging and order fulfillment needs can and do change based on the needs of your business operations. Print on demand fulfillment means your material doesn’t print until the order or membership package request comes in and is ready to be processed and shipped.
POD Fulfillment Services – Flexibility and on Demand Customizations for Your Business
For some businesses, having inventory housed at a processing warehouse with their print materials ready to go is their go-to print media fulfillment option. Based on what your print materials include, sometimes having this inventory printed and ready to go means cutting down on some processing times, and in some cases may save you a bit on your budget. This is considered a modified print-on-demand model. This can be especially useful for businesses that predict seasonal slow periods or are aware that at certain times of the year their business sees more traffic in other aspects or divisions.
In most cases, however, print on demand fulfillment is more appealing to brands that would like a bit more flexibility with the opportunity to personalize or adjust their included print materials. With ProList, you can be confident that both your materials and your packing options can be catered to your specific needs. That can include the personalization of your digital print materials to encompass a variety of different messaging options to ensure that you’re creating the ultimate consumer experience when a customer received his or her fulfillment package.
