Plus this option allows your to make more instant contact and track data about how successful your email newsletters are in bringing in sales. Why is building a milling list important? People cannot buy your product if they do not know what your are selling. You could have the best clay beads at the best prices in the world but if no no one knows about them it does not matter. Mailers give you an easy way to do this. Also, people like to buy from whom they trust. Sending these mailers will help you build that trust relationship and in turn increase your sales.
