It all starts with the
RIGHT DATABASE
DATA • DIRECT MAIL • IP TARGETING • PERSONAL URLS • EMAIL
WE START WITH THE BEST DATABASE
Bulldog 360's Debt Consolidation Prospects Database (DCPDB) is a proprietary database comprised of summarized credit, demographic, public record, utility payment, transactional data and Internet leads. We work with major compilers and bring in at least two dozen separate sources. We have been working with debt consolidation companies in this industry for several years. Our clients have been providing us with response and conversion information from the mailing campaigns that we have done for them to find the ideal debt consolidation prospects. Ideal candidates are the most responsive to mail, have the highest likelihood of doing a debt consolidation and are the most profitable.
How we build it:
We bring in all of our data sources once per month to compile our DCPDB. We work closely with a modeling and analytical partner that we have hired to build statistical algorithms based on our clients’ direct mail campaign responder and conversion information. Our modeling partner identifies people that look like the ideal candidates using all of the information that we have in our database such as summarized credit data, FICO like Scores, credit card debt, delinquent accounts, age, home value, etc. Our modeling partner then scores our entire database with the models that they have created for us. We then take only the best prospects for our database and make it available to our clients.

Why Does Direct Mail Get the Best Results?
1. Consumers Prefer Direct Mail.
It’s trusted by the people that receive it. 50% of U.S. consumers report they prefer direct mail over email. You might be surprised to know that includes consumers age 18-24. Yes, the millennials also prefer direct mail. 36% of people under 30 look forward to checking the mail each day. 66% of them are more likely to use a coupon or savings certificate if they have a physical copy to carry around.
2. It Hits Your Core Customer Almost Every Time.
Women, your primary target, pick up the mail 80% of the time in a household, and 91% of mail is picked up by the same person each day. That means your message is in the right hands almost all of the time. Women make 80% of all purchasing decisions, and 85% of all household purchases.
3. Direct Mail Has Less Competition for the Consumers’ Attention
How many emails do you receive every day? The US consumer receives an average of 88 per day. How many online display ads are you served every day? It’s not unusual for the average consumer to be served more than 300 advertisements within the first waking hour each day. Now contrast that with the physical mail box. The USPS delivers 513 million pieces of mail per day to around 118 million households. That works out to about four pieces of mail per household. This is a space you can dominate!
4. Direct Mail Has Higher Response Rates
Typical response rates range from 1.5% to 5%. A piece of mail is up to 37 times more likely to see a response from the recipient than email. One aspect driving these numbers is that physical act of reading or opening mail strengthens its impression on two senses… sight and touch… and deepens engagement even before the reading your message. Email in our mobile, message-laden digital environment have become too easy to swipe away before reading.
5. Direct Mail can be Integrated With Your Digital Marketing
Using direct mail alone can be successful for your retail business when using your past customer list and really good targeted lists. But, it can be even more effective when combined with digital marketing to enhance the results. Combine with email to improve performance and heighten engagement. Combine with online display and truly convey the size and scope of your event.
BACK YOUR DIRECT MAIL WITH IP TARGETED DISPLAY ADS
Let Bulldog Leads get you even better results using our IP Targeted display ads. We take the data from the mail and match them to IP addresses. From a week prior through two weeks after your mail is delivered, your customers will see your online ad to build brand recognition. When a display advertisement is clicked, the customer will be taken to a landing page that will gather their information. These landing pages will be modeled after the look and feel of your branding.
EMAIL MARKETING
Back you direct mail and digital marketing with a friendly email. The more brand awareness you can create for your customers the more they will trust you with their financial needs. We append email addresses to the direct mail database and reach 30%-40% of those customers with an email letting them know how you can help them and giving them a overview of your services.
CAPTURE LEADS WITH OUR PERSONAL URL LANDING PAGES
Each direct mail piece or email is tied to a Personal landing page. When a customer visits their secure webpage, their information is pre-populated in the registration form. You can then ask for any additional information. We also ask for an 8 digit PIN, provided from the mailer, to give the customer an extra sense of security. Once a customer registers their information, our system will send you an instant notification direct to your email or CRM.
Trigger Email Marketing
Once your customer visits their personal landing page, we can send them a followup email directly after registration, or even several days after they register thanking them for their interest and encouraging them to enroll in the program.
REAL-TIME REPORTING
Not only will we send you an instant notification each time a customer registers, you will also have access to our web-enabled reporting. Access these reports from your computer, laptop, tablet or any other device connected to the internet. These reports will also include IP addresses to use for your own retargeting efforts. Our web-enabled reports can be instantly downloaded into a CSV format.
