    Create a Postcard

     

    In your Marketing Center you’ll find a range of postcards to select from, that you can send to your contacts for any occasion. You can use these postcards to provide important information to your contacts or to just stay top-of-mind throughout the year.

    On this page you’ll learn how to:

    • Personalize and save a postcard design
    • Order professional printing

    Personalize and Save a Postcard Design

    When you find a design you want to work with, click the image for that design and you’ll be taken to the detail page for that piece.

    Click the Personalize button to go into the editor and customize your design.

    Learn how to use the editor

    For most postcards, you can edit both the front and back. To view and edit the other side, click the arrows in the Elements section in the right side panel.

    When you have finished personalizing your design, you’ll need to save it. From within the Design Editor click the Save button and select Save As.

    Name your design something relevant and easy to remember like the address of the home you are promoting, or a description of the piece. Click Save after you've named your design.

    Upon saving, you will see a successful save message, click OK:

    Order Professional Printing

    When you are ready to order professional printing of your postcards, you have three mailing options:

    1. Mail to Your Contacts (direct mail)
    2. Mail to Yourself (mail to me)

    1. Mail to Your Contacts

    To mail your postcards to your contacts, mark the check box that says Print Mailing Address on Pieces. This will expose your recipient options.

     

    You'll want to keep the mailing option "Mail Directly to Recipients" and here you can choose contacts in your system, or you can upload a mailing list. Regardless of how you add contacts, the minimum order for direct mail is 25 postcards.

    • Learn how add contacts in your system
    • Learn how to upload a mailing list

    Once you have at least 25 addresses for your postcard, you can choose to add "Or Current Resident" to the address, and you can also send 1 to yourself (recommended).

     

    Next you can review your print options:

    • Paper: Premium Cover Stock is the only option for postcards
    • Finishing: High Gloss UV coating comes on the front of the postcard. This is the gloss that makes the postcard shiny. The back of the postcard is not coated so you can write your addresses and/or a handwritten note.
    • Quantity: The minimum quantity is 25, but your price per piece will improve with higher quantities (we recommend 100+ for the best value)

    When you're finished with your print options, click Add to Cart.

     

    Once you add your items to the card, you will be required to Preview your piece before continuing.

    If your design has multiple pages, you’ll be able to scroll through the pages in the Preview window by clicking the arrows on either side of the image. After reviewing the piece, click Approve & Continue to continue to the Shopping Cart.


     

    (warning) It's imperative you review your design - once it goes to print, it's final and there are no refunds or options to stop a print order from being mailed.

    Now you'll see your print shopping cart, where you can review all of your print options. Once you've reviewed your order, click Checkout to proceed with placing your print order.

     

    On the checkout page, confirm the billing address and your order details. If everything looks good, click Place Your Order.

    2. Mail to Yourself

    To order postcards to be mailed to you, so that you can address them as needed, don't check the Print Mailing Addresses on Pieces box.

     

    Just review your print options:

    • Paper: Premium Cover Stock is the only option for postcards
    • Finishing: High Gloss UV coating comes on the front of the postcard. This is the gloss that makes the postcard shiny. The back of the postcard is not coated so you can write your addresses and/or a handwritten note.
    • Quantity: The minimum quantity is 25, but your price per piece will improve with higher quantities (we recommend 100+ for the best value)

     

    When you're finished with your print options, click Add to Cart and follow the steps above to complete your order.
