With women making or influencing roughly 85% of all purchasing decisions, marketing directly to women is just good business. But targeting female prospects isn't as easy as it may seem. Women often complain that marketing aimed at them misses the mark.
One reason may be that marketers don't really know who they're marketing to. Women aren't a monolithic group, so before mailing, you need to think carefully about the unique situation of the woman you're targeting, and how you can create a message that resonates with her. Rather than marketing to women in general, try to target your mailing to specific types of women, such as stay-at-home moms, working mothers, young singles, or retirees. Think about the issues that those women care about, and what their daily lives are like. Ask yourself, “How will what I'm offering make their lives better?”
