SureFax®

 

Welcome to 'SureFax™'






It’s an incredible Direct Marketing tool. Some say it’s the most valuable you can find at any cost.

 

A ‘fully-personalized’ business letter ‘creatively-packaged’ & computer-delivered to your prospects’ fax machines.

Take some great marketing letters … merge them with databases(s) of prospects (or customers) and computer-fax them. (Each with a handy Fax-Back reply form!) These will have the ‘real letter’ quality that gets your message through the clutter onto your prospect’s desk.
  • Letters are received and read when you want them to be. And you’ll have a log of the exact time each one was received.
     
  • The handy ‘Fax-Back’ form isolates candidates who have demonstrated a ‘propensity to buy’ — which leaves your sales team free to focus on ‘selling’ rather than ‘lead generation’.
     
  • Recipients pay more attention to SureFax™ letters and retain more of their content — so you’ll get a higher response than with a mailed letter. (We’ve obtained a 10% response with a ‘Fax-Back’ Form.)
     
  • A program of regular communication can be developed to keep your prospects and customers up-to-date and aware of trends in the business. This is a ‘Value Added’ service which keeps you and your organization top-of-mind when they’re in a ‘Buying-mode’.
     
  • Plus it’s an invaluable communication tool to use whenever there’s an urgent need to announce something!
     
  • Don’t forget. The more time and energy you focus on closing leads that are already ‘hot’ — the more you’ll find your lead conversation rate climbing dramatically!
     
  • And all this without paper … stuffing … sorting … postage … etc.!
     

To accomplish this … the letter must contain the same readily-identifiable qualities you would expect to find in a ‘real letter’. It must be on corporate ‘letterhead’ … be ‘personally-addressed’ (like a letter would be) … have a genuine looking signature at the end … and a complete mailing address (up to 6 lines). The wording must be professional and ‘sound like a ‘real letter’ not ‘junk fax’ or retail brochure copy.

Yet even if your letters have all these qualities — it’s almost impossible to do a mail-merge … computer-fax them to your prospects; fax machines … and have them arrive on your prospects’ desks still looking like a ‘real letter’.

It’s now possible with SureFax™ Narrowcasting Technology!

  • It all starts with a really great letter ... Short & Effective
    Your SureFaxª letter will be more than just good — it will be great! Because within the first 3 seconds your reader will decide to read it or ‘trash it’. Then take up to 7 seconds ‘scanning’ to see if it’s worth reading closely. Then (if they get this far) your success depends upon the message in your letter — it must be powerful and compelling enough to encourage the response you’re after.

     
  • Obtain a better response — than you would get through regular mail
    Compared with a letter received in the mail — people will read a SureFaxª letter first — spend longer reading it — retain more of its content — and respond at least twice as often asking for more information.

SureFaxª cannot guarantee specific rates of return in all cases — but it can more than double the response generated by any other vehicle.
 

  • Generate sales quickly ... even during Seasonal ‘Slowdowns’
    No need to wait around waiting to see if your letter actually got there. Or if the postal threat is real or not. Instead ... you’ll receive a printout showing the date (and time of the day) your message ‘got through’. And you can follow up immediately, while your lead is still ‘hot’.
     
  • It ‘looks’ like a real letter …
    A letter that’s been personally written to that individual only … and because it’s urgent or has been sent by fax. There is no telltale ‘mousetype’ across the top of the pages, Otherwise, their ‘guards’ standing by your prospect’s fax machine will ‘blue box’ your message before it gets to their desk.

What to use SureFaxTM for

  • Maintaining Customer Contact & ‘Top-Of-Mind’ Awareness
    It’s a great vehicle for letting existing customers know about new products or services you are offering. Too often, your customers are the last to know about new products or services And yet in today’s marketplace (where over 77% of successful sales meetings are ‘called’ by the customer) it is essential to present your message frequently and powerfully, so that when they are in the ‘buying’ mode — you are top-of-mind.
     
  • Generating New Business ‘Leads’
    The SureFaxª system is more effective than traditional techniques for communicating key selling points. It often generates 4% - 8% .... which leave your sales people free to focus on closing leads that are ‘hot’ — while (simultaneously) SureFaxª is busy generating new leads! SureFaxª cannot guarantee specific rates of return in all cases — it can more than double the response generated by any other vehicle.
     
  • A 5-Day Survey — Confirms New Marketing Position.
    In this situation, telemarketing was not appropriate. But SureFaxª was ... and survey results were obtained that justified corporate commitment to a change in the marketing strategy — and a new course of action was adopted. The entire survey was completed in a week.
     
  • An Invitation to ‘Test Drive’ — Creates New Business Opportunity
    “Come to a demonstration. See for yourself.” There is no better forum to sell your product in than this. And the SureFaxª method of presenting your message in a formal business letter (complete with an invitation to come and ‘see it with your own eyes’) outperforms other marketing vehicles by a margin of 3:1.
     
  • Special Invitation to a Special Function ... & ‘timeline’ is critical
    Recently, a client had a situation where a brand new product was available for a ‘one-day-only viewing’ — and they only had a 3 day window to confirm attendance. The SureFaxª method was used to generate a full day of appointments with interested prospects.
     
  • Mistakes happen
    Sometimes key people (customers, prospects, press) are overlooked when it comes time to invite them to a special event. SureFax™ can save the day. With a well written letter you can contact literally hundreds of those people with your message or invitation — overnight.
