Consumer insights – direct mail and people aged 25-34

Author: MMC
Date: 29 July 2009

The 25-34 age group are significantly under-mailed and received only 5.1% of all mailings sent in the past year, yet they are 26% more likely to respond to direct mail than the average UK adult - particularly via the internet or a visit to a store.

This 2009 MMC presentation uses research by TGI, BMRB and Billetts to explore the opportunities for targeting this audience and gaining share of voice.

Key findings include:

  • 80% like receiving coupons and money-off vouchers
  • 95% will open mail from a company if they are considering buying that type of product
  • 968,000 of them responded to direct mail via the internet in the past year
  • 47% of 25-34 year olds have done something in the past 12 months as a result of the direct mail they’ve received.
