Fax Marketing
A fax machine offers you a fast and inexpensive way to contact customers
to new product or service with a fax marketing campaign. Faxing provides an easy way for customers to send you orders.
With many personal computers being sold today that include a
fax/modem, which enable customers to send and receive faxes from the desktop as well.
Legal ramifications
You can send faxes to existing customers a notice about special offer on a new product.
As of December 1992, however, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act or Junk Fax Law has made it illegal
to send unsolicited, commercial faxes.
Fax-back service
Why not offer your customers fax-back service? A fax-back service allows a
customer to call a business, listen to a prerecorded menu of options, select an
option, and then request that the appropriate information be sent to a fax number.
An automated fax-back system can print out a listing of how many customers called and
where the information was sent.
Broadcast faxing
Broadcast faxing is a great way to reach a large target audience. If you have a generic
fax to send to many locations at a specific time, use a fax software program to dial
multiple numbers. If your customers rely on you for updates and product changes,
broadcast faxing using Total Fax is a fantastic way to communicate that information.
