By: Kelly Bowman In order to utilize Recipient Experience Testing to optimize direct mail campaigns, Metrics Marketing’s Research and Customer Experience team conducted a primary research study to identify opportunities, abandonment points and learn what users see (and what they don’t see) on 45 different direct mail pieces. From eye tracking and facial expressions to observing actual actions to receiving verbal feedback about the design, Recipient Experience Testing allows marketers to see firsthand how a direct mail piece can be improved. The Recipient Experience Testing conducted by Metrics Marketing Group included direct mail pieces from industries such as financial insurance and insurance, retail, travel, communication and hospitality. Each direct mail piece was accompanied by aggregated heat maps, focus maps and key performance indicator (KPI) charts. Heat maps and focus maps highlight areas that recipients see while KPI charts display statistics for specific areas of interest. The Research and Customer Experience team used KPI’s to determine in what order areas are viewed, for how long and how often. From this research, Metrics Marketing was able to capture images and statistics that can help marketers determine how effective their direct mail campaign will be before implementation. “For today’s direct mail marketers there is little opportunity to grab customer attention and stand out from the crowd. The print cycle is long, and competition is fierce, thus optimizing your creative prior to launch is imperative,” Cathleen Zapata will be presenting the high-level results of this study, including heat maps, focus maps and KPI (Key Performance Indicator) map examples in the upcoming webinar “Study Results: Utilizing Eye Tracking to Improve Direct Mail.” The webinar will take place November 30, 2011 from 12:00 p.m.-1:00 p.m. EST on Metrics Marketing’s BrightTalk channel.
