Shared postcards

One card, a dozen local businesses, every home on the route.

Shared 9x12 and EDDM postcards are the classic local-agency product: plan one oversized card, sell each spot to a different business, and mail it to thousands of homes. We give you everything from the route map to the payment.

What your client gets

What a business gets for its spot

A big, bright ad in every mailbox on the route, at a fraction of what a mailing of its own would cost, and proof that it worked.

Thousands of homes, shared cost

Their ad lands in every mailbox on the route, for one spot's price instead of a whole mailing.

Book and pay online

They pick an open spot on your sales page and pay by card in a minute. No paperwork, no chasing.

Help with the ad

A private ad workspace to send their offer, upload artwork or pick a template, and approve the final proof.

Every scan counted

Each ad gets its own QR code, so the business sees how many people scanned it.

Their offer online too

Approved offers go into the offers directory on your website, with redemptions counted.

Easy to come back

Results by email and an invite to your next card, with a discount if they book several.

What you get

Plan it, sell it and see what it earned

Every step of the mailing lives inside the campaign, in the order you'll need it, so nothing sits in a spreadsheet.

  • A route map that picks USPS carrier routes for 2,500, 5,000 or 10,000 homes
  • A card planner for 9×12, 6×11, 6.5×12, 8.5×11 and A4 cards, one side or both
  • Break-even, profit and suggested spot prices before you sell a spot
  • Local business leads in every category, with AI-drafted outreach emails
  • A sales page with pay-first checkout through your own Stripe or PayPal

What advertisers pay you, before printing and postage. Each campaign shows your real profit. An example, not a promise.

How it works

One mailing, start to finish

  1. 1

    Plan the mailing

    Pick the homes on the map, choose the card and spot sizes, and price it from your real costs.

  2. 2

    Find advertisers

    Get the best local businesses in each category near your routes and email them from your own address.

  3. 3

    Sell the spots

    Share the sales page. Businesses pick a spot and pay before it's theirs.

  4. 4

    Print, mail, rebook

    Approve every ad, send the card to your printer and mail it. Results and rebook emails go out on their own.

Questions agencies ask

Do advertisers pay me directly?

Yes. You connect your own Stripe or PayPal and advertisers pay you before a spot is theirs. We never hold your money and take no cut of what they pay you.

Do you print and mail the cards?

No. You send the finished card to any printer that handles EDDM postcards and drop the mail at the post office. The free training walks through printing and drop-off.

Can two competitors book the same card?

Not by default: one business per category is switched on for every campaign, so a dentist never shares the card with another dentist. You can turn it off.

Does it work outside the US?

Yes. US agencies get USPS carrier routes on the map. Elsewhere you mark your area on the map and enter the homes it reaches; everything else works the same.

What do advertisers see?

A sales page with the live card, the homes you reach and a booking countdown, then a private ad workspace with no password: they send their details, upload artwork or pick templates, approve the proof and see their QR scans.

Can advertisers book several mailings?

Yes. Set multi-campaign discounts (for example 3 cards for 10% off), and automatic emails invite every advertiser onto your next card.
