Frequently Asked Questions

What is a suppression list in direct mail?

A suppression list in direct mail is a database of contacts who should be excluded from a mailing campaign. This includes;

  • Individuals who have opted out,
  • Addresses known to be incorrect,
  • Recipients who have previously unsubscribed.

Using suppression lists helps ensure compliance with regulations and improves the efficiency and accuracy of the mailing process.

How do suppression lists help?

Suppression lists prevent unwanted or redundant mailings, ensuring regulatory compliance and reducing costs. They enhance campaign efficiency by targeting only relevant recipients, thereby avoiding negative responses and maintaining a positive brand image. This improves data accuracy, streamlines mailing efforts, and increases customer satisfaction and response rates.

How often should you update and modify your suppression lists?

Suppression lists should be updated before each mailing campaign. Additionally, periodic reviews, such as monthly or quarterly, are essential to ensure accuracy. Frequent updates help capture recent opt-outs, address changes, and other relevant data. An accurate suppression list ensures compliance, reduces wasted resources, and improves the effectiveness and efficiency of direct mail efforts.

How do you use suppression list management in Postalytics?

In Postalytics, use suppression list management by accessing the “Lists” section, selecting “Suppression Lists,” and importing your suppression data. Regularly update this list by adding new opt-outs and cleaning out outdated information. Apply the suppression list to your campaigns to exclude those contacts.

How do you create suppression lists?

To create suppression lists:

  1. Gather data on contacts to exclude, such as opt-outs, incorrect addresses, and previous unsubscribed.
  2. Use software to compile this data, including necessary details like names and addresses.
  3. Regularly update this list.
  4. Import the compiled list into your direct mail platform like Postalytics, ensuring it’s applied to campaigns to prevent unwanted or redundant mailings.
