How to Send Postcards in the Mail

Using postcards is a fun and inexpensive way to show someone you care. Postcards come with pre-printed images on the front, as well as space to write a message. They are available online, at your local retail store, or you can make your own from home.

To send a postcard, you need to choose the proper envelope. For a thin postcard, you can use a letter-sized envelope. You can also use a special window envelope, which includes a return address.

You can drop off a postcard at your local post office or mail box. You can also get your postcards printed and ready to go. However, it's important to follow the USPS's guidelines when sending a postcard. This will ensure that the postcard is delivered on time.

In addition to the usual address, you should include a call to action (CTA) and the date the original photo was taken. You should also make sure that the CTA stands out from the rest of the postcard. You can use a QR code or other digital media to make a more engaging call to action.

The postcard must be 4.25 x 6 inches or smaller. You can use a text editor to customize the size and fonts. You should also consider the amount of postage you'll need. If your postcard is large, you may need to use extra postage.

A postcard's CTA should be visible, and it should have an interesting headline. You can also use the bottom text area to add your name, phone number, e-mail address, or the name of your organization.
