One business per category, per city. Once yours is taken, it's taken.

Sample edition of the Hometown card: a 9 by 12 glossy card with one local business per block, each with its own offer, phone number, and tracked QR code, and one open block reading "This block is open".
Sample edition, front side. Demo businesses shown. Your block, your offer, your QR code.

The math, straight up

Your block on the Hometown Card

$499/mo

First month $449. About a dime per household, every month, ad design included, no contract. You approve the final art and we handle everything else.

Mailing your own postcard to 5,000 homes, once

$2,500–$4,000+

Design, printing, postage, route selection, all on you. Most owners never get around to it.

Want a whole card to yourself?

Solo postcards: your business, your offer, nobody else on the card. Solo mailings start at $999 for around 1,000 pieces. That is a floor, not a quote. What it actually costs moves a lot with the size of the piece, how it is printed, and whether we mail to whole USPS routes or to a list you already have. Ed prices your drop on a short call.

  • Professional design of your card, included
  • You approve the art and the routes before anything prints
  • Tracked QR code + post-mailing scan report
  • Whole USPS routes with no list to buy, or your own list if you have one

You'll know if it worked

Every ad carries its own tracked QR code. When a household scans your ad, we log it. After the mailing you get a plain report: how many scans, which days, what happened after. No guessing whether direct mail "works." You will see it.

How it works

  1. 1

    Claim your category in your city.

    Send the form below or call. We confirm your category is still open on your city's card.

  2. 2

    We design your block.

    Send a logo and your offer, or we help you build one. You approve the final art before anything prints.

  3. 3

    USPS delivers.

    Every door on the selected routes. Exact routes and household count are shown to you before the card mails.

  4. 4

    You get the scan report.

    And first right to keep your category on next month's card. No contract, so you stay on only if it is working.
