Why are handwritten note campaigns so effective?

According to Statista, almost 320 billion marketing emails are sent daily. As a result, inboxes are flooded, making it increasingly difficult to get the attention of prospects & customers.

Regular direct mail has also become ineffective, with 20% of direct mail being thrown away without being opened.

However, handwritten notes have a high chance of reaching the recipient due to its personal and unique touch.

What type of cards, notes and envelopes can I choose from?

IgnitePOST offers 5x7 folded greeting cards as default. We use 100 lb, high quality, professional-level card stock.

You can also choose to customize the size and type of stationery. Just connect with one of our experts to get great advice on what kind of cards, notes or envelopes are a best fit for your campaigns.

How quickly are handwritten card orders processed and mailed out?

On average, IgnitePOST aims to ship all orders within 24-48 hours. However, larger orders can take more time.

All notes are sent via USPS First Class postage, which usually takes about 3 days to arrive from the date of shipment.

What type of cards, notes and envelopes can I choose from?

Where are IgnitePOST cards postmarked from?

By default, IgnitePOST cards and notes are postmarked from Boston, MA, USA (our office location).

If you would like to have letters postmarked from your local Post Office to create a more authentic experience for your customers, we are happy to accommodate - we can bulk ship letters to you so that they contain your local postmark.
