Five Ways To Win With PURLs
A valuable tool in direct mail and email campaigns, PURLs or personalized URLs are landing pages specific to each recipient. For example, a direct mail piece to Bob Smith might urge him to visit FreeOilChange.BobSmith.com.
The landing page can be personalized with the recipient’s name and address or anything else that you have in your database.
Some tips on winning with PURLs:
- Maximize your opportunity. Include a video demonstration, downloadable information, a survey/questionnaire, or a special incentive/offer on the landing page.
