Millennials, Not Moms, Covet Coupons

Posted May 21, 2014 by Ashley Leone in Direct Mail Tips, Direct Marketing Trends

I think it goes without saying that everybody enjoys a good deal. Take Black Friday. Some people are willing to wait outside for hours and then re-enact a scene from Gladiator in the store to get a low-priced TV. But the lengths people go to for savings isn’t limited to a one day event. Nearly […]
