Direct Mail Marketing for Local Businesses in Central Florida
In a world of skippable ads, a physical postcard in the mailbox still gets read. For local businesses across Central Florida — the Orlando and Brevard area — direct mail is one of the most cost-effective ways to reach nearby households and stay top-of-mind.
Why direct mail still works locally
Mail is tangible, hard to ignore, and lands in a specific geographic area — exactly what a local service business wants. It pairs well with digital: a postcard drives searches, and your website closes the loop.
Postcards vs. EDDM
Two common routes for local reach:
- Targeted postcards: mail to a specific customer or prospect list.
- EDDM (Every Door Direct Mail): the USPS program that delivers to every address on chosen mail routes — no mailing list required. See the official USPS EDDM overview for route selection and size rules.
Design that gets a response
Lead with one clear offer, make it time-bound, and include an obvious call to action (call, scan, or visit). Put your phone number and a QR code where they're easy to find. Design in CMYK with full bleed so edge-to-edge color prints clean.
Pick the right size and stock
Larger postcards (e.g., 6"x9" or 6.5"x9") stand out in the mail stack and meet common EDDM size guidelines. A heavier cardstock with a gloss or matte finish signals quality and survives handling.
Measure it
Use a unique phone extension, promo code, or landing page per mailing so you can tell what worked and repeat it.
