TOP TEN USES
FOR WEB POSTCARDS by
Grace A. Cheeseman
A Web Postcard
is a heavy stock index card that shows your web site's home page
in full color on the front. This high-impact branding tool can be
a great attention grabber off-line, as well as driving traffic directly
to your site.
1.Send
Web Postcards to all your customers. Web
Postcards are an easy and inexpensive way to tell your customer
list you are online. Announce your site, announce specials, or simply
keep in touch.
2.Use
them to notify people about new features in your site. Web
Postcards have been used by thousands of sites to increase traffic.
Use them for contests, sales, or even thank-you-for-visiting cards.
3.Give
them out to customers making purchases. Hand
Web Postcards to customers reminding them to visit you online the
next time they can't make it into your store, restaurant, or office.
4.Send
them to the competition to make them envious. All
kidding aside, Web Postcards have been used to tell potential business
contacts - even competitors - about what you can offer.
5.Send
them to your family to show how tech-savvy you have become. Web
Postcards are not only used by businesses but also churches, schools,
government, military and even families.
6.Send
them to suppliers. If
you have mailing lists of suppliers and business contacts, mailing
Web Postcards can help facilitate the move to electronic commerce.
7.Send
a copy of your home page to all your contacts who do not have Web
access. After
your sales meetings, phone call, or even your email, Web Postcards
with a personal note will keep your message "fresh". (Very
popular with Realtors)
8.Post
them on bulletin boards in stores and computer centers. One
woman posted Web Postcards in supermarkets with her home page that
told of her missing son given up for adoption. She found him!
9.Give
out at trade shows. An
easy and quick way to keep your message in front of visitors to
your booth.
10.Send
to your "media" list. Let
the media in your area or trade group know of the interesting things
your business is doing on the Web. The media love stories about
technology.
