O (2009:115) Relationship marketing can be applied when there are competitive product alternative for customers to choose from and when there is an ongoing and periodic desire for the product or services thus, relationship marketing migrate back into direct mail, allowing marketers to take advantage of the technological capabilities of digital, toner-based printing presses to produce unique, personalized pieces for each recipient through a technique called “variable data printing.
