How It Works

From carrier route to kitchen counter, in four stops.

Every mailer runs the same route, every time — here's what happens between claiming your spot and landing in the mailbox. See the full mailing details →

1

Stop 01

We map your route

We pull real carrier-route data for the neighborhood around your business — exact home count, not a zip-code guess.

2

Stop 02

You claim a spot

16 spots per mailer, one business per category. If a plumber's already in, no other plumber gets on that route.

3

Stop 03

We design & print

One postcard, laid out professionally with all 16 businesses, printed in full color — no design fee, no software to learn.

4

Stop 04

It reaches every home

Delivered to every address on the route — renters and owners, no purchased list required.

FAQ

Before you claim a spot.

Want the full mechanics — how the mailing program works, what it costs to go it alone? Read the full breakdown →

Will a competitor be on my mailer?+

No. Each mailer holds 16 spots and we cap it at one business per category, so a plumber never shares a route with another plumber, a salon with another salon, and so on.

How is my route chosen?+

We pull the actual carrier routes nearest your business address and show you the real home count before you commit — typically around 2,500 homes, though it varies route to route.

Do I need to provide my own artwork?+

No — send us your logo, a phone number, and what you want to offer, and we handle the layout alongside the other businesses on the mailer.
