1) Send something interesting in the mail. As is the case for probably everyone, my daily mail consists mostly of junk and bills. How depressing. Make my day by sending me something I have to open, something with such an unusual shape or heft that I can’t ignore it. Maybe it’s produced on a special substrate. Maybe the copy on the outer piece is so intriguing that I rip open the package.
