Questions

About The Skinny

What is The Skinny?

A 4.5″ × 12″ postcard that's all yours: your business on both sides, mailed to the Orange County neighborhoods you choose.

How many homes can I reach?

As many as you like. Every mailing goes to every home on the USPS Every Door Direct Mail routes we pick together, from a few thousand homes to a whole city.

How much does it cost?

We quote each mailing for the neighborhoods, number of homes and timing you want. Design, printing and postage are included.

Do you design it?

Yes. Custom creative built around your offer, front and back. You approve a proof before anything prints, and you don't pay until you do.

Can I use a QR code?

Yes. Your QR code can link to your offer, booking page or website, so people can act the moment they read it.

How is it different from the shared cards?

On the Co-op and Community postcards you share the card with other local businesses, one per category. The Skinny is just you, and you choose where and when it mails.
