It is translated as direct mail advertising and is also called addressed advertising, but the more common usage is DM. Companies use mail to inform selected potential customers of the details of their products or services, aiming to promote sales, but it is also an important method in elections and public campaigns. The world's first direct mail specialist company is said to have appeared in Paris in 1864, but the era of direct mail began in 1872 when the Montgomery Ward Company began mail order sales in the United States, which later developed into sales by catalogue.

直接郵送広告と訳され,あて名広告ともいうが,〈DM〉という使い方が一般的である。企業が選んだ見込客に商品やサービスの内容を郵送物で伝え,販売促進をねらうが,選挙や公共キャンペーンでも重要な手段となる。1864年,パリに世界最初のDM専門会社が出現したとされるが,DM時代が開けたのは72年,アメリカでモンゴメリー・ウォード会社が通信販売mail orderを始めてからであり,これは後にカタログによる販売へ発展した。
