Here’s what you need to know about our direct mail printing process and why it’s the most effective and seamless way to print your direct mail materials.

Our guide to the direct mail printing process

Printing your mailers and launching a direct mail campaign is simple with Oppizi. We’ve partnered with over 700 partner printers nationwide for our flyers and mailers, ensuring fast and reliable service no matter where your audience is located.

Once you submit a campaign, we’ll send it to the closest printing location to your intended delivery area. This means we can print your materials nearby, reducing delivery times and costs while maintaining premium quality.

We offer eco-friendly options, dynamic variable capabilities, and quick turnaround times, to make certain that our printing service will meet your campaign needs efficiently and sustainably. Here’s how it works:

1. Design your mailers

Use our built-in design tool or work with a creative specialist to craft visually appealing and engaging mail materials. From size and format to colors and copy, make sure every element of your mailer is tailored to your campaign specifications. Incorporate your brand identity to ensure consistency across all customer touchpoints.

2. Add custom variables

Once your mailer is designed, you can upload your segmented mailing list to categorize your audience based on the type of mail you want them to receive. You will then be able to add placeholders to your mail templates that can be dynamically filled in based on the different variables you set. This level of personalization can significantly boost engagement and response rates.

3. Review the proofs

Your direct mail printer will render a few versions of your mailers for review, including a dynamic proof which allows you to view the different variables that will be changed as needed on the mailers. Ensure every detail is accurate to maintain a professional impression with your audience.
