Targeted and EDDM Mailing Services
EDDM mailing services still work because physical mailboxes are far less crowded than email inboxes and online ads. Cdesigns Marketing helps businesses design, print, and manage direct mail campaigns. From postcards and brochures to catalogs, we connect direct mail with QR codes, landing pages, and digital marketing strategies that support online engagement.
EDDM Mailing Services vs. Targeted Direct Mail
Targeted Direct Mail Campaigns
Reach highly specific audiences using quality mailing lists filtered by demographics, income, ZIP code, homeowner status, industry type, new movers, and more. Targeted direct mail works especially well for specialized offers and high-value services.
EDDM Mailing Services
EDDM mailing allows businesses to blanket neighborhoods or carrier routes without purchasing mailing lists. USPS Every Door Direct Mail® is ideal for restaurants, local services, retail promotions, political campaigns, grand openings, and businesses targeting geographic areas around their location.
Oversized postcards, brochures, menus, and qualifying multi-page mailers may all qualify for EDDM postage pricing depending on USPS requirements. In many cases, businesses can even mail qualifying catalogs up to 20 pages while still remaining under USPS EDDM® Retail weight limits, allowing them to mail at approximately $0.247 per piece.
Explore qualifying EDDM® print products, compare print pricing, and start your EDDM mailing order directly on our ecommerce site, CdesignsPrint.com. Oversized postcards, brochures, menus, and qualifying mail pieces are available in formats designed to meet USPS EDDM® requirements.

Why EDDM Mailing Still Works
EDDM mailing services remain effective because physical mail continues to attract attention in ways many digital channels no longer do. Businesses can combine direct mail with QR codes, landing pages, social media campaigns, retargeting ads, and SEO strategies to create multi-channel marketing campaigns that reinforce brand visibility and improve response rates.
