There’s an old-fashioned direct marketing secret that gets prospects to order two, three and even four pieces of the same item:
1. Give the prospect a reason to order more than 1 piece.
2. Ask the prospect to order multiple items.
Since 24% of the orders were for multiple units, this strategy boosted the average order and total sales for this package by a pretty penny! With a 7.42% response rate, this powerful package rolled out five times.
I developed the concept and teamed with one of my staff copywriters to design the promotion.
