Postcards sent through the mail can play a major role in your permission based e-mail newsletter program. Their many benefits justify trying to obtain both your subscribers' e-mail and postal addresses.

Why postal mail?

Postal mail often gets through when email can't. This is especially important with today's stuffed in-boxes, Spam filters, and frequently-changed e-mail addresses. Postal addresses are likely to change less frequently, and postal mail is more likely to be forwarded after address changes.

When your only contact with a prospect or client is through e-mail, you lose any chance of re-contacting them if your e-mail doesn't get through, or, if they changed their e-mail address without telling you. You may have overlooked their change of address notice in your own stuffed in-box!

Finally, messages sent through the mail can make a more lasting impact than emails which are often deleted after a quick reading.

This is especially true if your postcards contain valuable, frequently referred to, information, like "how to" tips. This leads to the power of tip sheet postcards.
