SOME OF THE RETAIL DIRECT MAIL SERVICES OCS PROVIDES INCLUDE:
MAILING LIST CREATION -

OCS also maintains various Special Operational Programs that will standardize address data and help eliminate duplicates from your list.
TARGETING / MARKET SEGMENTATION -
OCS can handle mailing your message to specific targeted geographic areas and to tailored market segments, such as particular age groups, new families to the area, income levels, home values,etc, etc.
DESIGN OF ADVERTISING PIECE -
We custom design materials to meet your every need. Personalized formats per market segments are available. We spend significant effort and time designing and composing the campaign message.
We also analyze what items should be included in your customized packet. This will vary based on the type campaign being performed, i.e. a general blanket mailing or a targeted piece to particular market segments. A typical product could consist of the primary Letter or Ad Flier, possible Special Insert(s), may be Coupons and the Main Mailing Envelope. A contrasting type product to the Ad or Information piece packet could be a Self-Mailer or Post Card format.
