North Carolina Home Buyer

Case Study: How We Transformed a Struggling Direct Mail Program Into a Lead-Generating Machine

The Bottom Line: We Cut Costs 30% While Doubling Leads. Here's How.

When this North Carolina home buyer came to us, their direct mail program was bleeding money and drowning their team in busywork. Six months later? They're crushing it with 100,000+ pieces monthly, half the cost per lead, and their team actually has time to think strategically.

The Problem: Death by a Thousand Manual Tasks

Our client was stuck in direct mail hell:

• Burning $0.90 per piece on campaigns that should cost half that

• Team buried in manual work - list building, suppressions, segmentation all done by hand

• Flying blind with zero actionable insights from their campaigns

• Growth was stalling because every new piece of mail cost more than the last

Sound familiar? We see this everywhere. Great companies choking on their own growth because their marketing operations can't keep up.
