Create a Vanity Domain
Create a vanity domain to use for diverting all of your print traffic into one channel. It’s as easy as deciding on a simple domain name, registering it, and pointing it to your server. Now you are ready to have custom tracking script installed and profiles configured.
Graphic Design and Print
Design and print of your marketing masterpiece should be done after reviewing the specifications of carriers. Decide on structure and size of your mailer wisely. For example, if you are using Canada post to deliver your message make sure you read the guidelines I have listed in this report. Now we can move into production, starting with graphic design. Once we have completed the artwork to commercial printing specifications we can plan to print & finish. Design and print usually work very closely, you want to make sure the design is doable in print before designing.
Your print design should be in sync with landing pages. A good website landing page is the difference of night and day when it comes to conversion. It’s always a worthwhile investment getting a “Visitor to Action” design along with a “Thank You Page” to up sell visitors. Why not allow them access to other offers on your thank you page.

Goal driven analytic reports are generated with actionable suggestions to improve your conversion. Performances of other important pages are also examined. We look for good and bad performing pages.
