Direct Mail - Get your message home with BIM and Mailmaster Plus

Communicating one-to-one messages to customers is a vital part of any marketing plan, with direct mail one of the most important ways to get the message home.

But, however strong the proposition, however compelling the offer, direct mail depends for its success on total accuracy, speed and flexibility.

Enjoying a long association with successful direct mail campaigns, BIM offers you the benefits of the renowned Mailmaster Plus system. For mailings of 10,000 or more addresses, this infinitely flexible system brings a raft of benefits, plus substantial cost savings through post office rebate schemes.

Input Data

Source information can be supplied as clipped coupons, computer printouts, magnetic tape or on disk, in any format.

Accuracy

Automatic de-duplication by individual or household, together with address enhancement and post coding means you can rely on an accurate mailing list from start to finish.

Reporting

A key benefit of the Mailmaster Plus system is the capability to provide you with extensive data analysis. As well as analysis by county, sex and average expenditure, with summary totals, reports can also be customised to suit your particular requirements.

Continuity Mailing

Successful direct marketing calls for cost efficient continuity mailing systems

Whether you're selling off the page in a national newspaper campaign, from a book or record catalogue or perhaps retailing your products via direct mail, you need a continuity mailing system that is cost-efficient, accurate and provides a detailed reporting facility so you can track the success of every promotion - any time you wish.

With its long experience in this market, BIM prides itself on its capability to work with clients to achieve a system that totally meets their requirements - at a very realistic cost.

Our system ensures that records are maintained for all goods supplied to customers, with a full accounting history for every purchaser.

The system also provides all the accounting controls necessary to ensure that goods are paid for, and to issue instructions relating to the continuing supply of products to customers - with stock records held for each item.

And to maximise the success of your campaign, a full purchase history of every customer is fed into a lifestyle database which can then be used for telemarketing campaigns.

Data Preparation

BIM provides a conventional data capture service from paper on to a variety of magnetic media

Accuracy and speed are essential for successful mailings. For maximum efficiency and fast throughput, we have invested in the latest data capture and post-coding software. This enables us to undertake address generation from postcodes as a standard part of our service.

Post coding of files where postcodes are missing, or checking and correction of postcodes can also be provided, as and when required.

File conversion for data held in a wide variety of formats and different media is also available.

Data capture is a key element of modern business life. Accuracy, reliability and completeness.
