MARKETING AND SALES STRATEGY

Marketing Strategy
Envelopes are a lot more important than they might actually seem to us. If we are making
envelopes that even without opening leave a mark then we are doing the right job. If Our
envelope is made with flimsy material and doesn’t look up to the market then none of our
customers will like buying it. And in case our product is both good in looks and quality but we
are not able to reach the maximum number of people to sell it, then it is of no use. That’s why
here comes the role of a good marketing strategy.

a. Get Good Designs

The designs made by a brand are its soul when you are involved in an industry like envelope
making. So here if we are only manufacturing those white without life envelopes, we won’t be
able to capture a large audience. As the purpose of envelopes is not just official these days,
people are using them widely for domestic purposes too. We will Hire an individual who knows
design and get a good catalog designed by him or her. Vivid designs along with bright colors will
capture the attention of everyone. Eye-catchy and quirky designs can be included in the segment
of envelopes being used for gifting.

b. Test Product

Even the smallest variations in our product can have a deep impact on our sales. So before
launching a new product always we must test it in small batches. If we receive a good response
then only go for making it in larger batches. A full-scale campaign that is not liked by our
customers will end up in massive losses. If we are a small business, then we can make some and
share it with our friends. After using our friends will give us feedback and based upon this go for
further manufacturing.

c. Hire Marketing People

No product business will ever scale without people who have a good sense of marketing. Even if
we have the potential of manufacturing the best envelopes, no one is going to buy them without
marketing in today’s time. We will invest in a good team of people who know finance and
marketing as they can help us in scaling our business.

d. Ads

Running Ads on social media and other places has become a quite convenient option for all
business owners as in this we don’t have to invest hefty amounts. We can try making a page on
Instagram or Facebook which represents our business. Post regularly so that people can stay
updated with all the latest designs and colors added to our collection. On social media, we can
also carry collaborations by sending our envelopes to influencers. This will help you in reaching
a large number of people at a low cost.

Sales strategy

our envelopes that set them apart from competitors. Emphasize factors such as quality,

and preferences of our customers. Provide options for different sizes, colors, designs, and
materials. Ensure that our envelopes can accommodate various printing techniques, addressing
requirements, and security features. Tailoring our products to individual requirements will attract
customers seeking unique solutions.

6. Provide exceptional customer service: Aim for outstanding customer experiences by

communication throughout the buying process. Encourage customer feedback and continuously

customers. This incentivizes customer retention and encourages them to become ambassadors for
