What Irish Consumers have to say

Three times a year we listen to over 600 Irish consumers

We discuss how consumers interact with direct mail and how it influences their purchasing behaviours. Once a year we also carry out in-depth consumer attitudinal research on multiple media channels, see what they had to say.

Direct Mail Consumer Tracker

As part of our ongoing Direct Mail Consumer Tracker we look at: 
  • General consumer sentiment
  • Consumer attitudes to mail
  • How much direct mail they receive
  • How relevant is the direct mail they receive
  • What they do with their direct mail
  • How direct mail compares to email

This research is conducted by TNS MRBI on behalf of An Post and is updated three times a year. Read the full report here.

Direct Mail Attitudinal Research

As part of our in-depth Direct Mail Attitudinal Research we look at:

  • How consumers feel about direct mail
  • Consumer attitudes to different advertising media
  • How impactful different advertising media is on consumers

This research is conducted by Amárach on behalf of An Post in Q3 2009. Read the full report here.
