Postcard Marketing – When to Use Die-Cut Direct-Mail Postcards

With most direct mail postcards, all you’ll ever need is a good, old-fashioned rectangular design: 6×8, 6×11, and so on.

But when you really need to make an impact, die-cut postcards are the way to go.

What are die-cut postcards?
Die-cut postcards are custom-made designs, cut in nearly any shape you need. For example: a postcard in the shape of a top hat… or a birthday cake… or a car. You get the idea. Your imagination is the only limit.

When should you use die-cut postcard marketing?
9 times out of 10, if you’re just mailing a simple promotion or offer, a standard cut will do. Standard cut postcards are more cost-efficient, because they’re cheaper to make and cheaper to mail too. But when response is critical, and you really need to resonate with your audience, die-cuts will grab attention like no other mailer. They’re perfect for announcing large events and sales, branding your company or even increasing sales of big-ticket items.

Think about it. What does your mail usually look like when you pull it from the box? Just a bunch of bills, envelopes, circulars and other square-shaped stuff, right?

Now, imagine if there was also a postcard in the shape of a gorilla. What would you notice first: the envelopes, or the gorilla? Which would your kids notice? Which would you be most likely to put on the fridge, or show to your spouse?

Die-cut promotional postcards will always stand out and get the attention of your target market. Combined with the right message, they can bring amazing results to your postcard marketing.
