Of all the elements in a direct mail campaign, the most important is the list. Your choice of the best list selection for your mailing is far more important than your offer, the creative (art and copy), or your price.When you contact a compiler for lists, don't expect the same service you get from a list broker. When you work with a local office of a large, national list compiling firm, the sales representative you talk to may just take your order, period. Some sales reps, however, may answer your questions and give you limited ad-vice.

If the national compiling firm you want to work with does not have a local representative, you can place your order directly with the main office. 

 

And If you need a list of residents who have recently moved to your community, for example, or a list of all local real estate agents, contact a local compiler. A local, service-oriented compiler may provide you with more assistance and advice than a sales rep from a national compiling firm and if your mailing is going to be confined to several local ZIP codes, a local firm may be your best source of lists and list advice. While list brokers tend to be biased against compiled lists, they can still help you select compiled lists along with direct mail lists.
