Your grandpa’s marketing campaign of sending out flyers and letters, is just that: grandpa’s strategy. It’s old, slow, and just doesn’t appeal to people the way it used to. Nowadays people are “pushing their envelopes” with new strategies- ones that work in the present.

Prospects spend literally three seconds when they first pick up an envelope to decide whether it’s worth their time to open it. Therefore, direct marketers believe it’s best to push their best features but this does not always work successfully.

The trick is to think of the envelope as an envelope. Nothing more, nothing less. The envelope should be used to contain the copy, carry an address and stamp, and nothing else. This may mean that the rest of the mail has to get a lot more interesting, but therein lies the challenge. And life’s no fun without challenges, right?

Since the turn of the century, it has been estimated that 78 million boomers will leave the workforce by 2033. And it’s predicted that the repercussions will be felt worldwide. Here’s what people have been saying about this phenomenon, if you’ve not heard about it.

The Ministry of Labour in Finland created a report called, ‘Preparing for the Labour Market Change Caused by the Baby Boom Generation’. It calculated that after 2010 the population will begin to reduce and starting in 2030, it will go down by 400,000. This equates to approximately 20,000 people each year. Labor aptitude will also reduce after 2010 at a rate of 30,000 people each year. And the worst of it is, there will not be enough young people to replace them.
