Much digital acceleration has been banded about during this period but with a nation spending more time at home the latest data informs us that all mail channels benefited in terms of reach, frequency and longevity in our homes.
This backs up the compelling results we are seeing from client campaigns that are live at the moment indicating that there is no better time to be planning a mail or door drop campaign.
