WHAT WE CAN MAIL
Campaigns, invitations and everyday updates.
Promote a service, keep members informed or invite customers to your next event. We can help prepare the print and mailing around your audience and message.
A mailing project involves more than printing the individual pieces. The address needs to sit in the right place, inserts need to fit together and the finished pack needs to suit the postal service being used.
We can help coordinate print, collation, enclosing and mailing around one agreed specification. Whether you are planning a one-off promotion or a regular newsletter, considering the whole pack early makes the job easier to manage.
Start with your audience and purpose
Tell us who you want to reach, what you want them to do and when the message needs to arrive. We can help you plan the format, artwork and preparation, and discuss a dispatch schedule that allows time for the chosen postal service.
Design the complete mailing pack
Plan the letter, inserts and envelope together. We can advise on finished sizes, folds and address positions before the artwork goes to print. Share an existing design or let our design team help develop a clear message and an easy next step for the reader.
FROM BRIEF TO DISPATCH
Get your next mailing moving.
Start with your message, the number of recipients and your preferred timing. We can help you work through the print and mailing details.
Share your campaign brief
Tell us what you are sending, the quantity, destinations and preferred arrival date. Include the pack contents, artwork status and any personalisation requirements.
Agree the pack and prepare the files
We’ll discuss print, envelopes, fulfilment and postage, then quote for the agreed job. Artwork, mailing data and any personalised proofs can be checked and approved before production.
Print, prepare and dispatch
Once the files and specification are approved, we can print, collate and enclose the materials for mailing. The dispatch schedule and postal service are confirmed as part of the job.
A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS
Mailing services, explained.
Planning your first campaign or arranging a repeat mailing? These answers will help you prepare the brief.
Yes. We can help with artwork, print production, collation, enclosing and mailing for letters, leaflets, newsletters, invitations and campaign materials. Tell us what each recipient should receive so we can quote for the complete job.
Yes. Names, addresses and messages can be added using supplied data. Tell us which parts of the artwork need to change and whether different recipients receive different versions or inserts. We can advise on preparing the files and agree proofing requirements before printing.
Contact us before sending the full list so we can agree the format, required fields and transfer method for your project. Use clear columns for recipient and address details, and identify any personalisation fields. Confirm the final recipient selection and any exclusions before approving the mailing.
We can support both one-off campaigns and repeat communications. Send the expected quantity and frequency so we can discuss a suitable approach. For repeat work, let us know which artwork, dates or recipient details are likely to change between mailings.
The main factors include the quantity, print specification, number of inserts, envelope or pack format, personalisation and preparation. The finished weight, destinations and postal service also affect postage. Share these details at the start so we can prepare a quote that covers the agreed print, fulfilment and mailing work.
Allow time for artwork and data preparation, approvals, printing, fulfilment and the postal service. Tell us your intended arrival date when you enquire, especially for invitations or time-sensitive offers. We can discuss a production and dispatch schedule; dispatch is the handover for posting, with delivery following according to the selected service.
