Description by authors:
Direct mail campaigns are all about trial and error. Direct mail marketers are forced to seek the best ways to reach the target market as well as the best ways to gain a response. For instance, each mailing campaign requires a control group (i.e. the customers that do not receive the direct mail), which allows marketing companies to measure the impact of direct mail. It also helps find out whether people who did not receive a mailing are responding anyway. By comparing the two groups of customers the marketer can easily determine whether the direct mail campaign has produced any significant effect on the company-s profit margins.
