Non-profit postage – 10.8 Cents
Hence, the postage per 25 households is 2.7 dollars.
Here’s why the EDDM mailing cost is cheaper than other direct response alternatives.
No need for mailing lists
The online mapping tool allows you to target audiences based on age range, income level, family size, presence of children, etc. It can let you know all the available routes you can send your EDDM mailers to. You don’t have to spend money purchasing mailing lists or waste time creating them.
Easy local targeting
You can target every EDDM®-eligible household around your service area with a single campaign to reduce your EDDM mailing cost or target specific areas that can bring you the most traction.
These are the two main factors that affect the EDDM mailing cost. However, the expense of your entire campaign can vary depending on other factors such as the number of mail pieces, design, print, stamping, delivery, etc.
