RV repair shop in Post Card in Debary, FL

The Challenge

An RV repair shop in Debary, FL was struggling to get new customers in the door. While they had loyal regulars, their growth had stalled. They needed a way to reach RV owners and travelers in their area, stand out from competitors, and communicate their trusted expertise — all without wasting money on ads that didn’t convert.

The Solution

Instead of relying on random advertising, the shop partnered with Mail Pros USA to design a high-impact postcard campaign that spoke directly to their ideal customers.

We made sure the postcards felt personal, relevant, and trustworthy, rather than just another generic ad.

Here’s what we did:

  • Eye-Catching Design: Featured a bold, clear photo of an RV to instantly connect with the target audience.
  • Short, Powerful Headline: Communicated the service benefit in seconds.
  • Social Proof: Added a glowing five-star review from a happy customer for instant credibility.
  • Easy-to-Find Location: Included a friendly, simple map showing exactly where the shop was.
  • Call Tracking: Used a unique tracking phone number so every inquiry could be measured.
  • Smart Targeting: Sent postcards to RV owners, recent RV buyers, and local residents within a 20-mile radius to ensure every recipient was a potential customer

This wasn’t just about sending mail — it was about sending the right message to the right people at the right time.

The academy’s postcard campaign brought in 5 new students! Tuition at the school is $4,400, which means in just the first year, they will generate $22,000 – a 1,005% return on their investment! If those students stay at Bethlehem Christian for more than just one year, their ROI will continue to grow exponentially!

💡 Pro Tip: Targeting high-intent audiences means your campaign’s ROI can grow far beyond the first sale, with ongoing revenue from loyal customers.
