Business Reply

You can turn your response element into a WERBEANTWORT (Business Reply) that is automatically prepared for being returned to you. Simply add the words 'Antwort' (response), 'Rückantwort' (return response) or 'Werbeantwort' (Business Reply) and a postage-paid impression.

Fast and Economical Route to High Response Rates

Either sent as a postcard or letter, a prepared response element makes it so much simpler for your existing or prospective customers to react to your message.

Only pay for responses that are returned

WERBEANTWORT costs little to produce and little to return. You only pay for responses that are returned by existing or prospective customers either unfranked or insufficiently franked.

Advantages

  • No technical requirements - anyone can react and respond
  • High response rate: Easy, hassle-free handling for you and your customers
  • Use envelopes if sending sensitive customer data
  • Ideal value for money: You pay only for responses that are actually returned
