Frequently Asked Questions About EDDM® Postcards
What is the main difference between Full Service EDDM and traditional direct mail?
Both services allow you to send out promotional materials to your target audience, but Full Service EDDM is the hassle-free version because you don't have to provide a mailing list of specific addresses, apply for a postage permit, or deliver the postcards to the post office. All you need to do is select your mail routes and delivery dates.
What are the most popular postcard sizes for EDDM?
Size 6.5” x 9” is a popular option because it’s perfect for compact and straightforward messages like special sales and promos. The 8.5” x 11” is also popular, especially for businesses that need more space for detailed product descriptions or service packages.
How do I pick the right lamination for my postcards?
The ideal lamination or coating depends on the desired look and intended use. For instance, High Gloss UV makes the colors look more vibrant and provides added durability and protection; matte lamination has a non-reflective finish, making it suitable for natural and minimalist designs; and uncoated postcards are ideal for writing.
