Fail: List

This postcard arrived from
a local boutique. The mailers knew I am a man -- it is addressed to "
Mr Marc B Davis" -- yet went through the expense of sending me a card. If the intent was to reach the woman of the household, then address the postcard to the woman. At least hedge a bit by addressing to the "Davis Family" or "Davis Home".
You can't argue that perhaps it was sent thinking that a man might purchase a gift there, because if that was the case, then a gift idea should be messaged on the mailer.
Learning: If your product is geared towards a specific type of consumer, then mail to only people who match your customer profile.
