THE PIECES THAT MOVE PEOPLE

Direct mail works harder when every detail has a job.

Your appeal shouldn’t look or feel like every other piece in the mailbox. We help your story arrive with purpose—from the first glance to the final ask.

01

EARN THE OPEN

OPEN

The shape-cut envelope

A tactile, unexpected format creates curiosity and earns the first critical action: the open.

02

BRING IT TO LIFE

FULL COLOR

The full-color letter

Emotion, imagery and a clear hierarchy connect donors to the people and places their gifts support.

03

MAKE IT HUMAN

for you
— personally

The personal touch

Relevant messaging and thoughtful details make the appeal feel human—not mass produced.

THE RESULTS BEHIND THE LIFT

Creative that stood out.
Strategy that converted.

Habitat KC and NextPage combined direct mail, a shape-cut outer envelope, landing-page improvements and cookieless IP targeting. The integrated audience converted at 3.4%, compared with 0.92% for direct mail alone.

“We were thrilled to see a 270% lift!”
