Improving acquisition results through testing and refinement.

One key tactic to improve direct marketing response is continuous testing and refinement. When Bread Financial launched two new AAA Visa Cards in market, we first developed the initial direct marketing materials. But it didn’t stop there. Bread then asked us to help with the development of test creative for their pre-screened acquisition direct mail and email.

Each quarter, we updated the creative to test different components, while also maintaining the integrity of the control. The results of these tests have helped to continuously refine the offers and creative to maximize their effectiveness.
