The Importance of Testing – Richard Benson
There are only two rules in direct marketing.
Rule 1: test everything. Rule 2: Refer to Rule 1
Secrets of Successful Direct Mail, 1989

There are two routes you can go down…
Traditional Campaign Testing

Traditional Campaign Testing
#DMAPrint
The problems with traditional testing…
One pack fits all
Not cost effective to segment
Control pack is very difficult to beat
Few tests a year ( 2 or 3 )
Many new initiatives fail
You might know what works but not why – so what do you learn as a
marketer from this for your other campaigns?
Therefore off line DM as a channel is not as effective as it might be.
#DMAPrint
Speed is key
It’s about being able to react to changing markets and audiences fast –
rapid learning, gaining an understanding in just days, not months and
months...
#DMAPrint
Chris Combemale
Executive Director DMA
”The lengthy time it takes to learn and the cost
of live testing has a negative impact on the
effectiveness of offline Direct Marketing.
The advent of the internet (and specifically panel based
research) means it is no longer necessary to wait months to
discover which creative approach, envelope or incentive will
work best...”
