Shared Mailer In an Envelope

by eccj

Has anyone done or heard of a successful shared mailer in an envelope with three or more businesses?

I've done two business in an envelope before and it works great. But it's natural in that one business introduces the other business. I suppose one business could introduce two or more businesses but it may be too clunky to make it work.

Obviously there is the postcard route which has it's own set of advantages and disadvantages.

any ideas or insights?

Updated Later:

Obviously there is ValPak which has 30+ businesses in an envelope although not in the form of a letter.

    Ewenmack covered it nicely. But your offer has to have a very wide consumer appeal (something anyone could likely buy) or a very high margin (like thousands of dollars on one sale).

    As long as the others in the mailer aren't political, religious, or a direct competitor...it doesn't really matter who they are. The envelope is opened expecting offers and savings.

    What if they're not stars? What if they are holes poked in the top of a container so we can breath?
