The solution
Armed with the knowledge that physical mail is both more likely to be looked at, and more likely to be looked at repeatedly (crucial in the charity sector), Re-engage immediately identified opportunities to send more varied communications.
Working with CFH, they identified that our hybrid mail solution Docmail would not only be able to fulfil their print requirements but provide significant benefits to the organisation and their remote employees.
Docmail was the first hybrid mail solution first launched in 2008 and provides organisations with the ability to send and manage postal communications from their PC or laptop. With secure, online access, Docmail offers an industry leading postal communication solution, providing users with the ability to send personalised mailings in just three simple steps.
The Process
As an entirely remote team of around 50, many Re-engage staff members now use Docmail, the leading hybrid mail product from CFH, multiple times a day. They found that a hybrid approach allowed them to bridge the gaps in their external communications, offering the right methods to reach different members of their audience, with a variety of relevant messaging.
From invites and updates for service users, to re-engagement letters and calls for support to their volunteers, Docmail allowed them to diversify their communications in a way that worked best for their audience. Most correspondence with their service users is delivered through mail, making the Print Driver add-on an essential addition for the remote teams across Re-engage.
The ability to brand closed-face envelopes with their organisation’s logo proved extremely useful for Re-engage. Operating in the charity space with older service users, they were able to take additional steps such as these to ensure that their users knew they were receiving authentic messages, and not fall victim to scams or fraud.
Docmail is the only hybrid mail system to allow exterior envelope printing on closed face envelopes, therefore the system made the process of envelope customisation simple. The envelopes could be adjusted to accommodate additional messaging, coloured logos and more, with the closed-face format also meaning that personal recipient information could not be exposed through a plastic window.
Re-engage also send out their annual surveys via post, with pre-printed business reply envelopes to keep track of responses. This all-in-one function reduced a lot of the friction points when reaching out to their audience for feedback, ultimately resulting in a higher volume of more useful responses.
