Greatly Expand the Testing of your
Direct Mail Packages to find out
“How Many” Changes and “Precisely Which”
Changes are needed
to maximize your Opening Rates, Reading Starts and Read-Throughs
Which means you would have to test, at a minimum, the following:
1) How your Outer Envelope ‘Looks’ and
‘What It Says’ (can change response by 100%)
2) The way your Letter ‘Looks’
(can change response by 150%)
3) What Your Letter ‘Says’ (can change
Response by 300%)
4) Your ‘Offer’ (can have a 500%
impact on response, up or down)
5) List Segmentation decisions (can create a
1000% difference in response)
6) Brochure/No Brochure and Response Device/Acceptance
Statement tests (can change Response 50%+)
BUT… how can I do that without spending a small fortune on
hundreds, or even thousands, of A-B Split Tests that would take
years to complete?
Your Answer : Advanced MultiVariate Testing
The best way out of this A-B Split Testing dilemma is… The Conversion
Multiplier, which integrates a new (but proven) MultiVariate
Testing technology with higher mathematics, direct marketing know-how,
creative services and advanced analytics to enable direct
mail marketers like yourself to test, all-at-the-same-time…

In short, as soon as you apply simultaneous MultiVariate Tests
of multiple Selling Factors and Variations to your direct mail packages,
you’ll be able to produce Revenue and Profit gains you never
thought possible in as little as 3 to 4 months, without having
to devote scarce in-house staff resources.
Which is possible for you to do, since we provide a turnkey, end-to-end
testing solution as follows:
1) Our marketing people create an exhaustive list
of the Selling Factors and Variations that could be tested based
on your direct mail package history and details.
2) We then shortlist the most important Factors
and Variations for Testing.
3) The Factors and Variations identified in step
2 are fed into our software, which analyses these Factors/Variations
and then, out of the thousands of possible versions of your
direct mail package that could be created by combining these Factors
and Variations, it selects 10 to 20 versions for Phase 1 testing.
(IMPORTANT NOTE: These 10 to 20 versions all satisfy
certain rigid mathematical requirements to insure that test results
obtained can be used for further mathematical analysis to identify
the most profitable Variation of each Selling Factor being
tested).
4) Our Creative Team now does all direct mail package
work needed for testing: from copy and design through package specifications
for production at the same time our marketing people specify all
test parameters including list segments, MultiVariate Test quantities,
etc.
5) Production of all test packages involved,
and tracking of response results, should be carried out by your
regular vendors and/or in-house facilities.
6) Once you make the test cell response data
available to us, our software will analyze the Phase 1 tests results
to determine the final 2 to 3 versions of your direct mail packages
for verification testing against your existing control package.
(NOTE: Our software has been built to insure that there is
minimal involvement of your IT people during the project). 7)
Our creative team now provides copy/creative/package specifications
for the final 2 to 3 package versions and then your regular vendors
produce and mail them with your control package in this final test,
again tracking response. 8)Whether measured by increases
in the number of completed orders, average order size, increased revenue
or profit per customer, your final Conversion Multiplier tests will
identify the package producing the most sales, revenue and
profit gains, which then will be rolled out until beaten by any future
tests. Generally speaking, time needed for this kind of Conversion
Multiplier testing is as follows:

And based on your preference or needs, The Conversion Multiplier
can test your entire package or test various components to identify
how the "interaction between Selling Factors" contributes
to sales gains.
Last but not the least, our pricing
policy is performance driven - we will charge you on the basis
of the Sales and Profit gains that we produce for you. This makes
it a thoroughly risk-free proposition for you.
Just as The Conversion Multiplier has produced new sales highs for
Web marketers, testing multiple Variations of key Selling Factors
all-at-the-same-time, it can now produce the same kind of sales
gains for direct mail marketers. For example, take our success story
with BirthdayPartyGamesLady:
BirthdayPartyGamesLady.com, owned by Leslie B. Lyons, sells 5 Birthday
Party Game supplies for kids and young children. Leslie came to
us to find out how she could improve her website’s Sales Conversion
rate. The dedicated project team, after close study of the site
to be tested, a thorough analysis of web stats and an exhaustive
study of her competitors, arrived at the final list of 11 Selling
Factors to be tested. Some of these Factors were...
-
Headlines (2 variations were tested for this Factor)
-
Discount Methods (2 methods were tested. One, a time limited
discount mentioned in the main site itself. The other, the same
discount appearing in a popup window)
-
BBB Logo (2 variations - present and not present)
-
Audio Message from Leslie (2 variations - present and not present)
-
Banner-Box-at-Top Type (2 variations were tested: red box with
white text and white box with black text)
The Conversion Multiplier conducted MultiVariate Tests using 12
different site versions and, when completed, a Verification Test
including the original site version. The Winning Site Version produced
a conversion rate of 0.44% against the original site’s 0.298%
, an increase of 47.6% in their Sales Conversion Rate compared
to the control version they had been using.
Now The Conversion Multiplier can produce the same kind of unprecedented
gains for direct mail marketers like yourself. Whether measured
by an increase in the number of completed orders, average order
size, increased revenue or profit per customer, The Conversion Multiplier
can maximize the sales impact of your...
