How long does it take for plastic postcards and direct mailers to arrive in homes?

The process of building and executing a campaign typically takes 1 to 1½ weeks. Once completed, the post office takes 4 to 10 days to deliver mailers to homes. Allowing 2 to 3 weeks is a good guideline. Orders over 25,000 pieces or mailers with extra features such as scratch-offs or magnetic stripes require additional production time.

Can I use the term Gift Card even though this is really a coupon?

Dynamicard distributes promotional plastic gift cards. These differ from purchased gift cards because no cash was paid for them. According to the California Department of Consumer Affairs, gift card laws do not apply to promotional gifts or items given away for charitable purposes or perishable foods.

How much does postage cost for plastic postcard mailers?

Standard 5.652 x 4.25 inch plastic postcards mail at approximately 31 cents bulk rate and 44 cents first-class rate. Exact rates vary, so contact Dynamicard for current pricing.

Power of Responsive Direct Mail Plastic Postcards image

Success in terms of marketing is all about getting the right message in front of the right person at exactly the right time - this has always been true and it likely always will be. But how do you make sure that someone actually NOTICES your message when they're receiving more targeted advertisements than ever on a daily basis? The answer is simple: you use a format that they can't help but pay attention to. For many brands, plastic postcards ARE that format and they unlock a myriad of different advantages you won't be able to find anywhere else. Stand Out from the Crowd One of the major benefits that direct mail collateral like plastic postcards bring to the table is that, ...

Capture a New Generation of Timeshare Owners image

You may not think that timeshare marketing is inherently seasonal, but this idea actually couldn't be farther from the truth. Even though the cold winter months are firmly upon us, now is actually the perfect time to start planning the type of campaign that will attract Millennials in particular to what you have to offer. Your prospects are already dreaming about how they're going to escape the winter blues and many of them are currently planning their summer getaways. They're in the mood for fun and excitement and this is exactly the spirit that you can use to empower your lead generation efforts moving forward. Taking Advantage of the Next Generation of Timeshare Owners One of the reasons why direct mail ...

The Impact of Using Direct Mail to Boost Online Purchases image

While it's absolutely true that more and more people are engaging with brands over the Internet these days, that doesn't mean that direct mail is dead - far from it. In fact, even if you operate a business exclusively online, there are still a wide array of different benefits that the right direct mail campaign can bring to the table that would be difficult to replicate through other means. Leveraging Direct Mail to Your (Online) Advantage One of the most important benefits of executing a thoughtfully constructed direct mail campaign ultimately comes down to what it can do for your response rate. According to one recent study, about 67% of millennial parents and 53% of millennials in general say that they're ...

What Realtors Need to Know About Targeting Absentee Homeowners image

It's no secret that real estate marketing is a bit more specific than most forms of advertising, as you're trying to capture someone's attention at a very important moment in their life. But as opposed to going after someone like a potential first time homebuyer, you can actually leverage best practices to your advantage and target people who may already have a home that they aren't necessarily getting a lot of value out of. If you play your cards right, you can create the type of mutually beneficial situation that serves you both well in the short-term moving forward. Targeting Absentee Homeowners: Breaking Things Down Maybe the most important thing for you to understand about all of this comes down to ...

Turning Brand Transparency into Brand Loyalty image

One of the major reasons that people love direct mail in the first place is because it's authentic. As opposed to an email which can be easily ignored (and deleted just as quickly), direct mail has an air of legitimacy to it. It's tangible - you can hold it in your hand or pin it up to your refrigerator, and that absolutely goes a long way towards the impression you're trying to make. But if you really want to use direct mail marketing materials to build customer loyalty, you need to rely on one element above all others: brand transparency. The Art of Brand Transparency At its core, brand transparency means exactly what it sounds like: you're creating an image that says ...

Keep Your Direct Mail From Becoming Junk Mail image

There's absolutely nothing worse than spending hours upon hours coordinating what is objectively the best piece of direct mail marketing collateral you've ever created, only to have it wind up in someone's trash. It's happened to many marketers... but it doesn't have to happen to you! At least, not anymore. If you really want to make sure that you're doing everything you can to keep your direct mail from becoming junk mail, there are a few key things you'll want to keep in mind along the way. Avoiding Junk Mail Curse: Your Guide One of the major reasons why people immediately toss direct mail advertisements into the trash is because of the same basic reason: bad addressing. This includes addressing your mail with ...

Valentine’s Day: Seasonal Marketing for Retailers image

Valentine's Day will be here before you know it, which means NOW is the time to plan your seasonal marketing campaign. In 2019, for example, Valentine's Day consumer spending topped out at more than $20 billion - a trend that shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. But if you wait until February to start planning your big Valentine's Day push, it'll be too late - and you'll have left a lot of money on the (proverbial) table as a result. But luckily, there is hope - if you really want to make the most out of your Valentine's Day marketing efforts as a retailer, there are a few key techniques you can start using right away. Making the Most ...

Valentine’s Day Restaurant Marketing: Your Complete Guide image

One of the most important things for restaurant owners to understand about seasonal marketing is that it isn't just Christmas and New Year's that you should concern yourself with. February is right around the corner, for example, which means only one thing: Valentine's Day will be here before you know it. As the second busiest holiday of the year for restaurants, this represents the perfect type of seasonal opportunity that you definitely do not want to pass up. Making the Most Out of Valentine's Day: Breaking Things Down One great thing you can do to take full advantage of the Valentine's Day spirit involves offering a prix fixe menu, otherwise known as "price fix." It's a special menu where everything - from ...

Advertising Your Fast Casual Restaurant to Millennials image

One of the most important things to understand about restaurant marketing is that no two establishments are created equally. Fast casual eateries, for example, have an entirely different set of challenges to contend with than traditional full-service restaurants and their direct mail marketing campaigns need to play directly into that fact. The millennial generation in particular seems to have embraced fast casual dining with open arms so if you truly want to play to that audience (and make no mistake, you should), there are a few key things you'll want to keep in mind. A New Era of Fast Casual Is Upon Us By far, the most important thing you can do to both attract millennials to your fast casual restaurant and ...

Judy at Dynamicard has been an invaluable strategic partner for our direct mail marketing. Her expertise helped us achieve excellent results, including a campaign that drove substantial redemptions and successfully acquired new customers at a break-even cost, proving the value of the mailers. We are also seeing positive Year-over-Year revenue growth on our campaigns. Judy consistently provides proactive, strategic guidance, such as advising us to combine lists to qualify for better unit pricing and utilizing variable data printing to create highly personalized, segmented offers for different customer groups. Her team makes the logistics seamless, from providing detailed list count reports to handling the artwork and ensuring compliance (like age-verification reports). Judy is highly responsive and clearly invested in our business's success. We highly recommend working with Judy and the Dynamicard team!

Teodoro Armenteros

I will be completely transparent and honest: This review applies specifically to my Cannabis business. If you work in the Cannabis industry—especially if you are a new dispensary or store—DynamiCard is the only marketing effort you need to start. Don't waste money on paid ads, billboards, or other channels YET! First, use DynamiCard to grow your business and raise local awareness. Once you have the cash flow, you can expand to other marketing efforts. But right now, this is the best bang for your buck. You will see a true return on investment (ROI), unlike other marketing agencies that provide 'feel good' analytics but zero sales increase. Highly recommended for real results.

Response from the owner:Thank you for the thoughtful and transparent review Teodoro. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, especially from the perspective of a cannabis business. The cannabis industry presents unique marketing challenges, from compliance restrictions to limited access to traditional advertising channels. Our goal at DynamiCard is to help dispensaries and cannabis retailers generate measurable sales, real foot traffic, and provable ROI, not just impressions or “feel-good” metrics. We’re glad to hear that our direct mail approach helped you build local awareness, drive revenue, and establish the cash flow needed to scale confidently. Your recommendation for new dispensaries to start with DynamiCard before investing in paid ads, billboards, or other channels aligns exactly with how many of our most successful cannabis clients grow. We’re proud to support brands that value performance-based marketing and data-driven decision-making. Thank you again for the strong endorsement and for trusting DynamiCard as a key growth partner in your cannabis marketing strategy.

We had a fantastic experience working with Dynamicard on our first mailer campaign. From the start, the team was responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in our success. Ivan, in particular, took the time to thoroughly answer our questions and helped us build a thoughtful, strategic game plan rather than rushing the process. That guidance really paid off, and the results exceeded our expectations. We’re very happy with the experience and look forward to working with Dynamicard again.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your thoughtful five star review. We try hard to put the extra effort in to make our clients happy and I’m so glad it paid off for you. We look forward to a long, productive relationship! Happy holidays.

Ivan at Dynmicard has been awesome to work with. He really understands our very niche market and took the time to learn what makes us unique. His guidance has been huge in helping us strategize and set up in-home mailer campaigns that actually stand out in a crowded space. The whole process has been smooth, and his ideas have given us a real edge over the competition. Couldn’t recommend him and the Dynmicard team more!

Hands down the best mailer card I've seen- the quality of the card and the colors being so vibrant, it definitely catches your eye and entices you to engage with the marketing material. The team also is very helpful and they try real hard to make the design process as simple as possible. sometimes having someone more creative helps making that investment much easier.

Response from the owner:Thanks so much, Tony! It means the world to hear that from you. You’ve been a fantastic partner, and we’re thrilled that the quality and impact of the card stood out to your customers, that is the goal. Our team genuinely enjoys working with you, and we’re always here to make the process smooth, creative, and results-driven. Looking forward to many more successful drops together!
