Self-Mailers
Drive Engagement
Folded self-mailers are an eye-catching and engaging direct mail piece that combines the visual impact of a postcard and the security and content length of an envelope mailer. Because there is no envelope, costs are lower and your audience is immediately wowed with visuals!
Benefits of Self-Mailer Marketing
More Space for Content
Unlike postcards, self-mailers have multiple panels giving you the ability to create rich, in-depth brand experiences.
Vibrant Photography
Self-mailers are image heavy and give you the ability to include large photos that highlight your product or service.
Pairs With Other Channels
Combine self-mailer marketing efforts with other offline and online marketing campaigns to achieve exponential results.
Flexible Layout and Design
Self-mailers are available in many sizes and lay out options making it fast and easy to focus attention on your brand and offer.
Staying Power
Consumers keep direct mail advertising in their household for 17 days on average. That’s a lot of time for your message to be seen!
Rich, Narrative-Driven Brand Experiences
Self-mailers are a powerful, cost-effective direct mail format that enable rich, narrative-driven brand experiences. Multiple foldable panels allow you to expand your message while maintaining a letter-sized piece, keeping your postage as low as possible.
Tri-Fold Self-Mailer
The Tri-Fold self-mailer is an elongated 6-panel piece that folds to look like a jumbo 6” x 11” postcard. Tri-folds can be used for everything from real-estate brochures, to product catalogs and everything in between. Perforated coupons can also be added inline to inspire action in your audience.
4-Panel Self-Mailer
Smaller than the Tri-fold, the 4-panel self-mailer is perfect for short, punchy campaigns that have a singular objective and stunning supportive pictures or graphics. It quickly and colorfully communicates your message while keeping costs low and works well in a horizontal or vertical format.
6-Panel Self-Mailer
6-Panel self-mailers are the largest option and are popular for long-form content pieces like newsletters. This direct mail format provides eight individual panels with a huge amount of space for branding, messaging, offers, and coupons.
