Ikea's direct-marketing campaign: Lessons from

A direct marketing campaign must keep customers engaged. In the case of IKEA, this means creating a social "check-in" option at stores. This will allow you give your customers helpful tips and information about the products that you offer. Customers will receive a special badge when they check into a certain amount of stores. This will give them the opportunity to opt in to a mini catalogue direct mail campaign. Foursquare users can also help IKEA build products using videos posted to the company’s USA YouTube channel.

There are a few key reasons this campaign was successful. IKEA was first able to reach large audiences using a low cost strategy. Secondly, it was able to leverage the power of social media and email marketing to increase the number of people who signed up for the email newsletter. Moreover, IKEA was able to increase profits from 2012 to 2013 as a result of its social media and direct mail campaigns.

A successful direct marketing campaign requires you to get to know your audience. Knowing your audience will help you create a campaign which reaches and inspires. Consider your audience's wants and needs, then craft a campaign around them. You could promote a crowd fundraiser or a favorite grocery shop, an app, charity, or even a nostalgic era.

Direct marketing has another advantage: it allows you to target specific segments of your market with tailored messages.
