Effective direct mail strategy

Question
What is the most effective and inexpensive campaign in direct marketing? 
Answer
The most effective, and probably least expensive, strategy for a direct marketing campaign is the U.S. Mail. Write and mail a series of letters, six to 12 over several weeks, to your top prospects.

Make the message personal, and include a signature, special offer and a call to action. This personal approach at best spurs people to action, and at the very least, makes a more memorable impression.
