	Direct marketing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Direct marketing is a discipline within marketing that involves the planned recording, analysis and tracking of individual customers' (business-to-business or consumer) responses and transactions for the purpose of developing and prolonging mutually profitable customer relationships.
		Direct marketing is a form of marketing that attempts to send its messages directly to consumers, using "addressable" media such as mail and email.
		Market research among personal computer buyers showed that between 60 per cent and 80 per cent of them read a letter addressed to them by name, whereas less than 40 per cent read one addressed to them by title, and in just over 20 per cent of cases where it was addressed to the company.

	Direct response marketing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Direct response marketing is a form of marketing designed to solicit a direct response which is specific and quantifiable.

		It is direct response marketing because the communications from the customer to the marketer is direct, and this differentiates it from direct marketing in which the communications from the marketer to the customer is direct.
