Often times, I am asked “Is direct marketing still necessary?” My answer is YES!. Though many people are on mobile devices, having a tangible item to reference, helps to remind consumers of your business.

I was given a challenge by a colleague of mine to come with three ways to use one postcard design. I actually came up with 4.

The postcard I used is called Cobalt Blue from Paper Direct. It’s printed on a heavy card stock and has matching envelopes. As a designer I would’ve used a photo stock image, however, I know not everyone has the budget to download stock photo at anytime. Buy using pre-made design paper, it eliminates an extra cost.

Below are 4 speculative design for Promotional and Marketing direct mail ideas, I hope it inspires you as you plan for this Holiday season.
