Why It Works

Why Postcards Matter for Your Business

Postcards built on 14pt gloss hold up in the mailbox and in the hand, which matters more than most people expect — a flimsy piece reads as a flimsy brand. We produce every run on EDDM Retail timelines your campaign can actually plan around, with a 3-5 business days turnaround so a seasonal push doesn't stall in production. Because everything is printed and finished in-house, changes to quantity, stock, or finishing don't mean starting the quote over.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about postcards.

Do I need a mailing list to send postcards?

No — EDDM lets you target every address on a mail route without buying a list, so you can launch a campaign with zero data on hand.

Which postcard size gets the best response rate?

6"x9" is our most requested size — it's big enough to stand out in the mailbox while still qualifying for EDDM and bulk mail rates.

What's the smallest order I can place?

Runs start at 500 pieces. That keeps your per-piece cost low while still hitting the minimum for EDDM and USPS Marketing Mail pricing.

Can you design the postcard for me, or do I need my own artwork?

Either works. Send print-ready files, or our in-house design team can build the layout from scratch based on your branding and offer.

How soon can I expect delivery after I approve my proof?

Standard turnaround is 3-5 business days from proof approval to mail drop, depending on quantity and your chosen mail class.

Will a glossy finish smear or crack if it's folded in transit?

No — our 14pt gloss and matte stocks are coated to resist scuffing and moisture, and they hold up fine through standard USPS handling.
