Hello,
I’ve recently started a cake shop in Toronto, specializing in designer cakes. There are 3 other stores who provides the same services in the same region, so I thought of doing some marketing for my store. I actually planned to start with an online promotion, but my friend told, it would be good if I start with direct mail marketing before online promotion, as he had done it for his store by giving the contract to a direct mail marketing services provider, which earned good amount of customers for him. So I’m confused with where to start with, online promotion or direct mail marketing?
Please help.
Thanks!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.

The usual approach is to start with an online promotion, e.g. with Google AdWords or Facebook Ads. Be careful to aim your campaigns to the right region. Prepare a nice landing page, that's the page your future customers will land to after clicking on your ads. Your landing page should provide a way to register an email address, i.e. in order to get an extra offer/sale. Once you have email addresses of many users, you do a direct mailing with additional offers. This is IMHO the best way, doing the direct marketing first seems kinda spammy to me.

The choice between online promotion and direct mail marketing depends on various factors such as target audience demographics, budget, and campaign objectives. cox internet packages Online promotion offers wide reach, precise targeting, and real-time tracking, while direct mail marketing provides tangible engagement and a personal touch. Ultimately, a strategic blend of both channels could maximize campaign effectiveness, catering to diverse consumer preferences and behavior.

Cultural preservation is another vital benefit of travel. By visiting and valuing cultural heritage sites, travelers help to ensure that these important landmarks are maintained and protected. Museums, historical sites, and cultural festivals gain the resources needed to continue their preservation efforts, allowing future generations to learn from and appreciate the past. In addition, cultural exchange during travel promotes the preservation of traditional arts, crafts, and customs, as travelers often seek out authentic experiences that celebrate local heritage. This interest in cultural preservation supports artisans and cultural practitioners, helping to keep traditions alive.Stansted airport
