SMALL-BATCH MARKETING CAMPAIGNS

If you're looking for a friendly, personalized idea to reach and engage longtime, loyal supporters - consider a SMALL-BATCH mailing. 


We believe "spray and pray" marketing isn't effective, and seen success with smaller, targeted mailings. It's easier to manage and much more cost-friendly than mass-mailings.


Below is a PDF of our video about Small-Batch Planned Giving Marketing. It has plenty of ideas, how-to's and examples to help you deliver a campaign. 


If you you'd like to talk to us about SMALL-BATCH mailings send an email to Claire@pgagency.com and we'll set something up.

Small-Batch Marketing Campaigns

Take a look and learn how!

This presentation will show you how you can reach planned giving prospects with a budget-friendly, highly-targeted small-batch mailing to select donor segments. Lots of tips and how to's.
