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.
The shape-cut envelope
A tactile, unexpected format creates curiosity and earns the first critical action: the open.
The full-color letter
Emotion, imagery and a clear hierarchy connect donors to the people and places their gifts support.
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!”
