Automotive Direct Mail: Recent Results and “Across the Board” Averages

By John Greenleaf

This is a record of eight recent sales events I did using automotive direct mail. I will list the response rate, dealership location (State), and an “across the board” average for a hard number on our automotive direct mail performance! 

  • 3.39% – TX
  • 2.50% – TX
  • 1.74% – TN
  • 2.22% – TX
  • 1.72% – AL
  • 4.95% – NH
  • 2.72% – OH
  • 2.04% – NC

The combined “across the board” average is 2.65% response rate. These do not include responses that circumvented the process in which leads are logged. We can reasonably add at least a half percent in non-logged responses, bringing our “across the board” average to an (unconfirmed) 3.15%ON AUTOMOTIVE DIRECT MAIL!

Do you see now how I can unashamedly boast of having the TOP-PERFORMING automotive direct mail products in the country? How is your mail company doing?
