We used to send out tons of samples - man, I tell you, those were not the people who ordered - the people that ordered knew how great the product was, put a deposit down, we developed their ideas, sent them a proof in the mail and then they finalized their orders. I've been sending out samples for 2 years and 95% of my orders were made on the phone, first contact, and they made a deposit sight unseen. Then they get a proof of their design that they can look at and finalize their order.
99% of the people who asked for samples weren't serious about it, just wanted to see it and never ordered. We just stopped sending out samples last month. I had 2 years to see what worked and what didn't. Sending out samples to everyone
doesn't work. When a serious customer gets a sample that looks exactly like what they had in mind, that's where we get our sales.
k, maybe that's a little too much in-depth behind the scenes of my business but I'm trying to explain the reasoning, the bottom-line of it is we don't send out samples
Sorry. For $100 we'll set up your card however you want and send you out a sample of
your cards, not something
generic. If you're interested in a great marketing tool, $100 to develop it and see it is a steal
