    Pros & Cons

    Is EDDM Right for You?

    EDDM is a powerful tool, but it's not the right fit for every campaign. Here's an honest look at the advantages and limitations.

    EDDM Pros

    Wide Reach: Reach every household on a carrier route — no one gets missed.
    Low Cost: $0.185 per piece postage is the lowest rate available for direct mail.
    No List Needed: No mailing lists to buy, no addresses to print, no permits required.
    Flexible Sizing: Multiple postcard and brochure sizes to fit any message and budget.

    EDDM Cons

    No Personalized Targeting: You can't select individual recipients — it goes to every door on the route.
    Same Piece to Every Door: No variable data or personalized messaging — every household gets the identical mailer.
    Lower Response Rates: Because it's not targeted to specific individuals, response rates are typically lower than targeted direct mail campaigns.
