Direct Response Marketing is a special form of marketing in which visitors respond directly in the form of ‘taking some specific action’ to the website’s call. This is in contrast to Direct Marketing where the marketers directly contact the prospects. The conventional DRM aims to eliminate retailers or wholesalers from the sales channel and set up a direct contact between seller and the buyer. DRM is presented in the form of Infomercials. This action through DRM can be used to generate leads, to request more information or to sale etc. Direct Response Marketing is a fine way for collecting database of online visitors also. For quantitative research on internet, direct response marketing can measure activities of online visitors coming to direct response websites.
Direct Response Marketing has the following key characteristics:
• Direct Response Marketing is shown in the form of infomercials. It may be a television commercial or an online video etc.
• A direct response marketing campaign is launched to give some offer to its target audience.
• Every direct response marketing drives the online visitors for a call to action.
• The main message in direct response marketing can be absorbed very quickly without going through the elaborated text content. Main text headings and graphics make the viewer easily understand what the offer is all about.
Due to these advantages, online marketers are using direct response marketing to generate prospects. Product selling or traffic generating sites are taking advantage of this direct ‘call to action’ technique.
