A direct response advertising agency is a service provider that helps its clients create, implement, and track direct response marketing and advertising campaigns. Direct response is a type of advertising or marketing that a business can participate in. The reason it’s called direct response advertising is because the point is that once the direct response advertising agency gets the promotion in front of the intended customer, the customer reacts immediately.

There are several forms of marketing and advertising that a direct response advertising agency can use in these types of campaigns. One of the most well-known and popular direct response advertising methods is coupons. Consumers can immediately cut out a coupon and take it to the store to redeem. Some coupons even include redemption codes so they can be redeemed online. An agency would help a client put together the coupon or discount they should offer, then implement a tracking or response initiative to see whether or not the coupon campaign was successful.

A direct response agency spends a lot of time working closely with its clients. The agency representative wants to know the company inside and out. The agency representative also needs to know their clients’ customers. Collecting all of this information allows the direct response advertising agency to put together campaigns that customers are likely to respond to immediately.

Through this research and the experience of direct response advertising agency representatives, the representative can usually come up with a plan. The representative then helps implement and implement each of the direct response campaigns. Also, the agency tracks response rates so it can inform the client so they know what was successful and what wasn’t.

The agency and clients often use response rates to replicate successes and adjust for failures or less successful campaigns. In essence, a direct response advertising agency puts together marketing and promotional campaigns that encourage clients to react immediately, which immediately increases sales for the clients the agency is serving.

Today, these types of agencies use online and offline direct response tactics. Some other examples of direct responses include response cards, toll free numbers, providing an email address and online name to download a free report, e-book or other information.
