EDDM or Direct Mail: Which One Do I Need?

It comes down to one question: do you know who you want to reach? If you want everyone near your shop, use EDDM. You pick mail routes on a map, and the mail carrier drops your piece in every mailbox on those routes. There are no names, no list to buy, and no stamps. It works great for restaurants, home services, and new stores that want the whole neighborhood to know about them.

If you already have a list, use direct mail. That could be past customers, patients, members, or people who filled out a form. We print each person’s name and address on the piece, so it only goes to them. It costs a bit more per piece, but nothing is wasted on homes that would never buy. Many businesses do both. Once people get your mail, a lot of them will look you up online first, so make sure they can find you. Here is why a business might not show up on Google.

Direct Mail Tips That Bring in Calls

Pick the Right Routes

Start with the routes closest to your business. The post office map shows the average age and income on each route, so you can skip the ones that don’t fit your customers.

Give a Reason to Act Now

Add an end date to your offer, like “Good through June 30.” A deadline gets people to call this week instead of someday.

Mail the Same Homes Again

One mailing is a start. Sending to the same routes three times, a few weeks apart, usually works much better than one big drop.

Track Every Response

Use a special code, a QR code, or a web page just for the mailer. Then you know how many calls and sales it brought in.

Your mailer should send people somewhere that turns them into customers. If your website or Google listing needs help, our digital marketing team can fix that. Want to look at mail routes near you? Try the post office’s free EDDM route map.

EDDM and Direct Mail Questions

Here are answers to the questions we hear most.

How much does EDDM cost?

You pay for two things: printing and postage. EDDM postage costs much less than a first-class stamp, and the more pieces you send, the less each one costs to print. Full service, where we bundle and drop it off for you, adds a small fee. Text or call Markit Media at 480.245.4287 and a real person will send you an exact price.

Do I need a mailing list for EDDM?

No. That is the best part of EDDM. You pick mail routes on a map, and the mail carrier delivers your piece to every address on those routes. No names, no addresses, and no list to buy.

What is the difference between EDDM and direct mail?

EDDM goes to every home on the routes you pick, with no names on it. Direct mail goes only to the people on your list, with each name and address printed on the piece. EDDM is great for reaching a whole neighborhood. Direct mail is great for past customers, patients, and members.

Can I send EDDM to homes only and skip businesses?

Yes. When you pick a route, you can choose homes only, or homes and businesses together. Most restaurants and home service companies choose homes only.

Can I target people by age or income?

With EDDM you pick whole mail routes, not single people. The post office map shows the average age, income, and household size for each route, so you can choose the best ones. If you need to reach exact people, direct mail to a list is the better choice.

Do I need to put stamps on EDDM mail?

No. Each piece gets a small printed box in the corner, called an indicia, that shows the postage is paid. We add it to your design for you.

How long does it take for my mail to arrive?

Printing usually takes about a week after you approve your proof. After that, the post office decides the timing. First Class mail usually arrives in 1 to 5 days. Marketing Mail can take 3 to 10 days. EDDM usually shows up within a few days of the drop-off. Text us if you have a deadline, and we will plan around it.

Can I mail a brochure or a booklet, not just a postcard?

Yes. We can mail flat flyers, half-fold and tri-fold mailers, sell sheets, and stapled booklets. Folded pieces get small round tabs that keep them closed in the mail, so you don’t need envelopes.

How many times should I mail to the same homes?

Most people need to see your name more than once before they call. Mailing the same routes three times, a few weeks apart, usually brings in more calls than one big mailing.

Can you design my mailer?

Yes. We can design it from scratch or fix up a design you already have. We make sure the size, the postage box, and the address area all meet post office rules, so nothing gets sent back.

Do you do political mail?

Yes. We print and mail EDDM by route and direct mail to voter lists for local campaigns. Text us early, since election mail has tight deadlines.

Do you only do mailings for Scottsdale businesses?

No. We help businesses across the whole Phoenix Valley, including Phoenix, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Paradise Valley, Fountain Hills, Glendale, and Peoria.
