Identify in writing the advantages of the Direct Mail Program
a. Targeting - Through careful screening and selection of lists, Direct Mail is efficient in targeting specific markets like high school seniors, high school graduates, college students, school officials, and influencers.

b. Coverage - Direct Mail can cover a variety of large markets more rapidly than the individual recruiter.

c. Personal – Because Marine Corps Direct Mail is addressed with the individual's name (not resident or student) and presents topics pertinent to the individual at critical times in their lives, it is more personal and attractive than general advertisements.

d. In-Depth Message - Direct Mail is ideal for telling a long story in detail. It is not limited by time, like TV or radio, or space, like newspapers, and can address specific programs of topics in depth.

The decision may be made to defer contacting some of them. This is a mistake! Aggressive and immediate follow-up of PPC’s will lead to contracts!
Identify in writing the goals of the Pool Program
