How HKM Helped a Big-Box Retailer Deliver Personalized Direct Mail Campaigns at Scale
In today’s fast-paced retail market, personalized, data-driven marketing is essential to driving customer engagement and store traffic. A leading big-box retailer faced the challenge of delivering four million personalized postcards monthly to their credit card customers—each postcard customized with 32 different versions, barcodes, and bilingual content. The task was further complicated by the need to align postcard deliveries with promotional events, requiring seamless logistics and coordination across multiple U.S. and international locations.
To meet these demands, the retailer partnered with HKM Direct Market Communications, leveraging advanced printing, automation, and secure data management to streamline the campaign and enhance efficiency.
Key Challenges

- Variable Data and Barcoding: Personalization on both sides with static barcodes for tracking.
