Direct Mailers? Who Did You Use?


I have a question for all of you that have used direct mailers. Who did you go with and what price range were you in? I have been looking into direct mailers but am not sure which company to go with. Should I go with someone local in my area or use the online services? Also what kind of return did you see on them? I am just starting out a construction company and would like to know if it's worth spending the money on direct mail. Thank you.

Use a local company. When it comes to mailers lowest price is not everything. You want to deal with a company that will take the time to learn about your business and help you figure out the best way to mail to your target market.
