Campaign Goal & Objectives
•
GOAL
To stimulate customer interest by offering exclusive rare coins to a previously
•
segmented group of customers who have been identified through the database as
past customers/collectors building and investing in Copper, Bust Type, Seated Type,
and Gold coinage.
•
OBJECTIVES
– To promote exclusive access to our nationally known numismatist’s invaluable
advice on the future investment value of coins, what to buy, and what to pay as
the market prices on some coins depreciate, and other coins value will rise to
high prices.
– To re-energize our database and increase sales while decreasing our direct
mailer costs by building stronger online relationship with html email offers and
surveys.
