Day 1

You Talk to Us

Call us or fill out a form. We'll ask about your business and service area, then tell you exactly what to send, who to send it to, how often, and what it costs. We've done this for 24,500+ businesses — we already know what works in your industry.

Free, no obligation, about 10 minutes. Most people are surprised at how quickly we respond and how specific the recommendation is.

Days 2–5

We Design Your Postcardand Pull Your List

Our designers build your postcard from scratch based on what performs in your industry. At the same time, we pull and prepare your mailing list. You review a proof and we revise until you're happy — nothing prints until you approve it.

Design is included in your campaign price. No separate fee, no hourly charges. We also finalize your list criteria so everything is ready to go to print.

Days 5–10

We Print, and Mail

Once you approve the design, we print on high-quality card stock, address each piece, sort for USPS automation rates to keep postage low, and deliver to the post office. You don't touch anything.

Printing, addressing, sorting, and postage — all included in one price.

Days 10–14

Postcards Hit Mailboxes

Your postcards land in-home within 7–14 days. Most businesses see responses within a week or two of the postcards reaching mailboxes. Next month, we do it again — same process, same team, same quality.

We ask for a 3-month initial commitment because campaigns need consistency to build results. After that, it's month-to-month. Cancel anytime with no penalties.

Everything’s Included. One Price.

Other companies charge separately for design, lists, postage. We don’t. Here’s what’s in every campaign:

Custom Design

Professional postcard designed from scratch by our in-house team. Based on what works in your industry — not a template.

Mailing List

We pull the right list for your business — saturation, targeted demographics, or a combination. Updated data, every mailing.

Printing

High-quality card stock. Full-color, both sides. UV coating for durability. Your postcard looks and feels professional.

Addressing & Sorting

Each postcard is addressed, ink-jetted, barcoded, and sorted to qualify for USPS automation rates — saving you on postage.

Postage

Postage — included in your price. No surprise postage invoices. What we quote is what you pay.

Monthly Repeat

Your campaign runs every month on autopilot. Same team, same quality, consistent delivery. You don’t have to remember to reorder.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Process

How much does a postcard campaign cost?

Campaigns start from $607 for neighborhood saturation, $627 for homes-only mailings, and $777 for targeted consumer lists — all for 6×9 postcards, all-inclusive. That means custom design, mailing list, printing, addressing, and postage. One price, no hidden fees. These prices are through our Monthly Mailer Program, which starts with a 3-month commitment then continues month-to-month at the same rate. Most clients mail 2,500–5,000 pieces to start. We'll give you an exact price on the phone in about 10 minutes.

What kind of response rate should I expect?

Response rates vary by industry, offer, and mailing frequency, but most postcard campaigns generate a response rate between 0.5% and 2%. That might sound small until you do the math: mailing 5,000 postcards at a 1% response rate means 50 new leads per month. For most local businesses, even a handful of new customers each month more than pays for the campaign. We’ll walk you through realistic expectations for your specific industry on the call.

What size postcard do you recommend?

For most businesses, we recommend the 6×9 postcard. It’s large enough to stand out in the mailbox but qualifies for USPS automation postage rates, which keeps your costs down. We’ll recommend the right size for your specific campaign during your consultation.

Does direct mail still work?

Yes — and the data backs it up. Postcards have the highest response rate of any direct mail format, and unlike digital ads, there’s no algorithm deciding who sees your message. Every address on your list gets your postcard. We’ve helped over 24,500 businesses, and 68% of our revenue comes from clients who keep mailing month after month. They wouldn’t keep paying if it didn’t work.

How long before my first postcards are in mailboxes?

Design takes 3–4 business days, then printing and production takes another 5–7. Once mailed, USPS delivery typically takes 7–10 days. So from your initial call to postcards hitting mailboxes, you're looking at about 2–3 weeks. After your first mailing, monthly campaigns run on a consistent schedule.

Is there a contract or long-term commitment?

No contract required. You can mail once and be done. That said, our best pricing is through the Monthly Mailer Program — a 3-month commitment to start, then month-to-month at the same rate. Most clients choose it because postcard campaigns build results over time, and the savings are significant. After the first three mailings, you can continue, pause, or stop — no penalties either way.
