Printing, Preparation and Postage
Mailing list accuracy, mailpiece dimensions, and postal requirements all influence the cost of a direct mail campaign. GSB Digital considers these details alongside printing and finishing to help clients select the right format and mailing approach.
When appropriate, we coordinate with specialized mailing houses for address processing, presorting, postage, and USPS entry. This allows us to manage the complete project while helping clients take advantage of qualifying postal discounts.

Beyond the Standard Mailer
Paper, size, folds, and finishes all influence how a mailer is received. GSB Digital produces postcards, folded mailers, printed envelopes, and specialty pieces using a wide selection of stocks and finishing techniques. Foil stamping, raised print effects, and distinctive materials offer opportunities to create something beyond conventional direct mail.
Personalized Print That Connects
Variable data printing allows businesses to customize names, messaging, offers, and imagery for individual recipients or specific audience groups. GSB Digital can produce multiple variations within a single print campaign, making personalized communication possible without requiring a separate print run for each version.
Custom Kits and Promotional Mailings
Some campaigns call for more than a single printed piece. GSB Digital combines printed materials, promotional inserts, product samples, and custom packaging into coordinated marketing kits. Our in house assembly and fulfillment capabilities accommodate projects with multiple components that require careful packing and presentation.
Targeted Neighborhood Mailings with EDDM
Reach households and businesses in selected neighborhoods without purchasing a traditional mailing list. USPS Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) allows campaigns to target postal routes using geographic and demographic information, including average household income. GSB Digital can print, prepare, and mail qualifying EDDM campaigns, offering an economical option for local promotions, grand openings, and regional marketing.
Why Direct Mail Still Makes an Impact
Direct mail offers something digital marketing cannot fully replicate. The weight of the paper, the way an envelope opens, or the texture of a printed surface can influence how a message is received.
Direct mail is particularly valuable when timing, audience, and presentation matter. Whether introducing a new product, reaching prospective customers, or maintaining existing relationships, a thoughtfully planned mailing gives businesses another way to connect with their audience.

Let's Make Something Worth Opening
Whether you have finished artwork and a mailing list or are still exploring ideas, GSB Digital can help you plan your next direct mail project. Tell us about your audience, quantity, format, and timing, and we’ll help determine the best approach.

Give us a call:
How much does it cost to print and mail a direct mail campaign?
Pricing depends on quantity, size, paper selection, finishing, personalization, and postage. A simple postcard mailing will have different production costs than a campaign involving custom envelopes, inserts, or specialty finishes. GSB Digital can provide a quote based on your project’s specific requirements.
What is the most cost effective size for a direct mail postcard?
Standard postcard and letter sizes generally offer more economical mailing options. Larger formats can provide additional design space but may increase postage costs. The best size depends on your content, quantity, and mailing method. GSB Digital can help determine a format that balances presentation and cost.
What is the difference between First Class Mail and USPS Marketing Mail?
First Class Mail is generally faster and includes forwarding and return services. USPS Marketing Mail typically offers lower postage rates for qualifying bulk advertising campaigns, but delivery timing is less predictable. The best option depends on your mailing quantity, budget, and deadline.
How far in advance should I plan a direct mail campaign?
Production time varies depending on the complexity of the mailing, quantity, finishing requirements, and postal service selected. If your campaign is tied to an event, promotion, or specific delivery window, contact GSB Digital early so production and mailing can be coordinated around your schedule.
What are the artwork requirements for direct mail printing?
Artwork should be prepared at the correct dimensions with appropriate bleeds, image resolution, and space for addressing and postage. USPS also has requirements for certain mailer sizes, folds, and formats. Reviewing these details before printing can prevent production delays and unexpected postage costs.
Can I send direct mail without a mailing list?
Yes. USPS Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) allows businesses to reach households along selected postal routes without purchasing a mailing list. GSB Digital can help coordinate printing and mailing preparation for qualifying neighborhood campaigns.
How can I track the results of a direct mail campaign?
Unique QR codes, dedicated landing pages, promotional codes, and campaign specific phone numbers can help measure responses. These methods make it easier to identify which offers and audiences are generating engagement.
Do I need my own USPS mailing permit to send direct mail?
Not necessarily. Depending on the mailing method, GSB Digital can coordinate postage and postal preparation using an appropriate mailing permit, including one provided by a mailing partner. We’ll help determine the best approach based on your campaign’s requirements.
