Concise & Precise Design, Message

Two Key Postcard Copywriting Rules 

These rules are critical for capturing the attention of the new customers of Cosmetic Surgeons or Dermatologists.

A Clear, Bold Headline

Keep your postcard headline short and simply effective. On the front of your postcard there should be one simple and central message that is the focus of the Cosmetic Surgery or Dermatology marketing postcard campaign.

The best way is to achieve this is with a bold and clear headline that’s not cluttered up with other text. A good guideline is to have the headline fill up at least 15% of the front of the Cosmetic Surgery practice or Dermatology office postcard.

Fewer words create higher impact. Imagine extra words costing you more in phone calls, other inquiries. Postcard headlines on the front like, ‘Rebecca, Ready to Positively Change Your Life!” gets your local Cosmetic Surgery customers attention.

This personalized printing concept, if combined with a visually appealing image that accents and supports the message will be a recipe of an excellent Cosmetic Surgery or Dermatology Practice marketing postcard. Examples: CopiesAndPrint.com

Perceptive Perspective: “Whats In It For Me” (W.I.I.F.M)
Look at your message from the new customer’s perspective. Rather than touting technical capabilities or announcing news presenting features, your Dermatology and Cosmetic Surgery office must explain the benefits your customers will appreciate.

Imagine: If you were a customer calling in panic, or after they were not serviced correctly by other business, would you care about all the technical details or non-specific to them features in a piece of equipment? Maybe yes, but only if it means they can get their Cosmetic Surgery and Dermatology practice needs met faster, more conveniently, at better costs...

Get Them To Act: Effective Call To Action

Timeliness is the ticket to success to most all Dermatologist's or Plastic Surgeon's postcard marketing. Give your potential local customers a compelling reason to take action NOW, such as a discount or reward for responding by a deadline.

Make the postcard do double duty using as a coupon, event ticket or gift card that returns the customer to your business sooner rather than later, which also helps your Cosmetic Surgery Practice measure its effectiveness.

Choosing a Postcard - Response vs. Cost

The most profitable Cosmetic/Plastic surgeons or Dermatologists direct mailed postcards campaigns achieve the highest possible response at the lowest cost. While smaller sized postcards are cheaper to print and mail, a larger postcard will stand out among other mailing pieces.

This often means larger postcards are often more cost effective because they get a higher response (ROI). Cosmetic Surgery or Dermatology practice marketing postcards of a larger size can be distinctive and also give you more room for additional content to add more value (in a precise, concise fashion).

Personalized, full color Cosmetic Surgery or Dermatology practice marketing postcards have also shown to increase response rates as much as 35% compared to generic presentation, non-personalized postcards
