WHY LOCAL MARKETING
IS THE SECRET TO

MARKETING YOUR GYM

Letterbox marketing allows you to be hyper-focused with your marketing budget!

In a world where more and more gyms are cropping up each week, the distance people travel to work out is getting smaller and smaller. Letterbox marketing helps you ensure that you reach everyone in your local neighbourhood directly.

THE PROBLEMS MOST GYMS FACE:

01

Digital ads disappear in a crowded online space

02

Social media algorithms keep changing, making your posts invisible

03

Competitors with bigger budgets are outbidding you online.

04

Your ideal customers (people who live nearby and want to get in shape) aren't finding you

Why the
Letterbox?

Letterbox marketing can have a reputation of being "old school" and "out of date", but that's its superpower. The letterboxes are empty, which means YOUR business rises to the top of the pile. By producing compelling flyers, delivering to a targeted area and following up you can bypass the competition and secure more leads than ever before.

61%

In 2024, 61% of marketers increased their investments in direct mail, up 12% from 2023.

60%

of consumers find direct mail more memorable when making purchase decisions, compared to 44% for digital ads.

60%

Marketers experienced a 60% increase in ROI when combining direct mail with digital channels.

90% of direct mail is opened, in contrast to just 20-30% of emails.

The letterbox is one of the most underutilised yet powerful and direct channels to connect with your customers. In a world where letterboxes are often empty, they represent a valuable opportunity for your marketing materials to capture the attention of potential clients.

Large corporations, governments, charities, and savvy small businesses continue to allocate a significant portion of their marketing budgets to unaddressed mail, either as a complement to their digital efforts or, in some cases, as a complete replacement.

With costs per lead significantly lower than the average social media campaign, it’s no surprise that businesses are rediscovering the value of the letterbox as a marketing tool.

Not for health services! Our data shows people are 3-4x more likely to keep and reference a physical flyer for gym services than remember a digital ad.

We use Field Supervisors to provide delivery verification reports

How much longer can your business afford to waste money on marketing that doesn’t deliver actual, paying customers?

Every day you continue pouring money into ineffective digital marketing is another day your competitors are stealing the customers who should be yours.
