Direct Mail Targeting

Direct mail targeting provides a map and database of postal areas that have a specified market characteristic. In the map below, the direct mailing is targeted to divorced people, so the postal codes generated are those with a high divorce rate.

Map: six digit postal codes fitting a specific market characteristic

In Canada: direct mail targeting involves generating the three or six digit postal areas that have a desired market type (for example, a three digit postal area would be S7N, while a six digit postal code within the S7N area would be S7N 3Z1). Direct mail targeting using six digit postal codes, as in the sample map above, allows for a high level of precision in targeting specific market segments.

In the United States: direct mail targeting means generating the zip codes or carrier routes having the desired market characteristic. Direct mail targeting at the carrier route level allows for the highest level of precision in targeting specific market segments.

Altavision offers a complete range of direct mail solutions, from creative and printing to mailing.
