- 34. 3. Add Value 1. If your direct mail package has no added value in it – then I’m probably going to ignore it 2. If the only time I ever hear from your company is when you want to sell me something… … then I’m not sure I want to hear from your company

- I like to look at it in this way. Suppose I drove a bus full of people up to your place of business and I told you that I would let the people come into your place of business and they would become typical customers. Whatever your typical customer is, these people would be just like them. If your typical customer comes in once a month and spends $100, for example, that’s what these people will do. But there is one catch… you will have to pay me so much for each of them. So that is my question to you. Think about your business and tell me how much you will pay me for a typical customer? (Walk around the room and look for responses. Typically you will get just a few and most people will not raise their hands. When you get a reply, ask the person what business they are in and what they will pay. When you get a couple of answers, proceed in this fashion:) So, you could pay me, say $50. Then if you went in the mail for $500 per thousand you would need to get 10 customers to break even, right? So you need a 1 % response. Now most of you haven’t answered. You don’t know what a customer is worth.
