Personal URL (pURL)
NSS offers personal landing pages as a feature of its direct mail campaigns. A personal URL, or pURL, provides direct mail recipients a URL that is unique to their first and last name. When the direct mail recipient enters the pURL they find on their direct mail piece, then the name and address information automatically populates the form fields based on a database lookup by NSS. This means less is needed from the consumer, a better user experience is created, and it is simple and easy for consumers to get a new subscription. View a sample pURL webpage.

“We have been using NSS for direct mail since 2013 with great results. We generated almost 8,000 orders in 5 direct mail campaigns through this one channel.
