OTTAWA – Canada Post is introducing an innovative new Smartmail Marketing solution that allows marketers to target at the postal code level by combining existing customer knowledge with address-level data, unlocking the power of the postal code. With Postal Code Targeting, marketers can target prospects whose demographics most closely resemble their best customers.

This level of data-driven targeting empowers marketers to connect with their most receptive audiences, leveraging their own data or selecting the mailing’s postal codes by demographic criteria such as income, education, age, location, family composition, interests or lifestyle, and even based on online shopping behaviours.

Postal Code Targeting is a powerful new service within our Canada Post Smartmail Marketing suite that will provide marketers with three great choices custom-built for the way they attract and retain customers – Neighbourhood Mail, Personalized Mail, and now, Postal Code Targeting.
