Traditional inserts vs.
innovative transpromo

Companies use different marketing strategies to set themselves apart from the competition. A traditional and well-known advertising form is the flyer. Flyers are used to make existing and potential customers aware of products and services. Flyers or leaflets are separate advertisements that are enclosed with transaction documents such as invoice, bank statement, newspaper or other publication.

Was this transpromo?

Nowadays, companies place their marketing messages directly on transaction documents. This type of marketing is called transpromotional or transpromo for short. This term refers to the use of shipping invoices or statements (so-called “transaction documents”) for further distribution and advertising purposes. In this case, advertising messages are not sent separately but printed on the remaining white spaces of the transaction document itself (white space management). The word transpromo is made up of the words “trans” from the word “transaction” and “promo” as an abbreviation of promotion, the English word for advertising. It enables a faster return on investments than its predecessors.

 

Transaction documents as a direct medium for customer communication

96 % of customers open their transaction documents on a regular base, unlike direct marketing messages on flyers, which are opened by only 26,3%. During the opening of an invoice, customers review the document carefully. Most of the recipients review it even more than once. Unlike separate advertising inserts, which the recipients can throw way, transactional documents force recipients to view the marketing message.

If a company creates multiple transaction documents every month, has a big number of customers, and wants to control its advertising campaigns from A to Z, it is more efficient to use its own software to create transactional documents and add commercial messages attached to the in-house database.
