The expert edge

One postcard gets noticed. A campaign builds customers.

Most businesses run digital ads or direct mail. The ones that win run both together — the same message in the mailbox and on Google and Meta at the same time.

Physical mail builds trust and stays in the home. Digital keeps you visible while they decide. PostcardHub manages both as a single coordinated campaign.

Why we combine mail and digital

27%

more likely to deliver top-ranking sales performance when digital campaigns include direct mail.

Frequency wins

Why the businesses that win show up every month.

Research shows only 2% of prospects respond to a first direct mail piece. By the 5th to 12th contact, conversion rates reach 80%. That is not a reason to send more one-time blasts — it is a reason to commit to a programme. PostcardHub campaigns run the same routes, same message, every 30 days. The homeowner who ignored drop one remembers drop three and calls after drop five.

How it works

Three steps. Done for you.

01

Tell us your target area

Drop a pin, postal code, or neighbourhood name. We map the exact routes and show you how many homes you'll reach.

02

We design your postcard

Our team writes the copy and designs the card. You approve. Design is included on all 3-month and 12-month programmes. Creative refreshes with every drop.

03

Canada Post delivers it

Your postcard lands in real mailboxes on the routes you chose. On 3-month+ programmes we activate your Google and Meta campaign to the same postal routes.

Timeline: Design 5 days · Production 10 days · Delivery BC 8–14 days · Delivery Alberta 7–13 days · Total 3–4 weeks from brief to mailbox.

Digital add-on

Your postcard. Their mailbox.
Their feed. Their search.

We're the only Canadian direct mail company that runs coordinated Google Display and Meta campaigns mapped to the exact same postal routes as your mailer. Same message. Three channels. Up to 9 touchpoints in the campaign window.

The digital add-on is available exclusively on 3-month and 12-month programmes — because real results require consistent presence, not a 30-day test. PostcardHub charges a monthly management fee. Ad spend is paid directly to Google and Meta by the client — transparent, no markup.

Neighbourhood Mail

Every door in your target routes. No list needed.

Meta

Facebook and Instagram ads served to the same postal routes.

Google Display

Google ads served to the same households across the web.

Available on 3-month+ programmes.

Who it's for

Built for local businesses that need calls this month.
