Website visitor postcards for home services
Before you mail a visitor, see who they are.
A homeowner looks at your services and leaves. A postcard can give them another reason to call. Start by checking the person, the property and the visit you are about to spend money on.

If you run a roofing, HVAC, plumbing or other home service business, you know the problem. People look around. Some call. Others disappear.
Website visitor postcards use an available identity match to turn a visit into a mailing address. The useful question is whether that homeowner fits your business and still has time to respond to mail.
PipelineOn helps you review more of the people behind those visits. When available, you can see contact details, traffic activity and property information. Mail is sent through a separate connection.

Look past the mailing address.
Give the office a record it can use.
PipelineOn's matched records can include a name, email and postal address. Available property information can add estimated value, bedrooms and bathrooms. Living area can pass through the Zapier connection when available.
Fields vary. Start with a sample from your own site and see whether it helps your team follow up.
Check what brought them to the site.
Review pages, journeys and available traffic sources. A homeowner viewing a replacement service deserves a different review from someone reading a general how-to article.
With paid collection, ZIP, page and campaign rules can narrow which new leads are accepted. This gives you control over lead collection costs as well as the mailing list.
Keep the offer on the postcard simple.
One service. One useful reason to act. A phone number the office answers.
For example, a replacement campaign might offer an estimate and explain which area you serve. Use terms your business can actually honor. A card does not need to mention that the homeowner visited your website.
Carry the same offer onto the landing page. Avoid making someone read a long explanation before they can call or ask for the estimate. See our postcard writing and targeting guide.
Start with a budget you can explain.
Count the visitor record, mailpiece, postage, software and connection costs. If your team spends time cleaning the list or chasing responses, include that too.
PipelineOn's free account includes up to five eligible homeowner IDs a day. Paid collection is $1 per eligible lead. Custom rules require paid collection. A mailpiece costs extra, and the lead charge can apply even when you send no mail.
A tighter audience can reduce collection and mailing volume. It does not guarantee more jobs. Track which records lead to estimates and completed work. Our postcard ROI example shows how to compare a test.
Start with your existing website.
You need traffic for visitor identification to work. If your site is quiet, focus on getting the right people there first. Our contractor direct mail guide covers the difference between reaching a neighborhood and following up with visitors.
If you already have traffic, start free. Look at your available homeowner records before changing your mail campaign. If an agency handles your marketing, bring them into the test.
