Category exclusive

No competitor from your category shares your mailing. Your space is yours.

Done-for-you creative

From layout to USPS paperwork, our team handles the details.

Built to measure

QR tracking connects your mailer to real customer action.

Questions

Good to know.

Anything else? Ask on the Get Started form and we'll answer within one business day.

How does the mailing reach homes?

Every mailing zone is a USPS Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) route. The Postal Service delivers the card to every home on the route, so there's no mailing list to buy.

What does category-exclusive mean?

Only one business per category goes on each mailing. If you're the pizza place on the card, no other pizza place is.

Do I need to design my ad?

No. Professional ad design is included. Send us your offer and logo, and we'll send you a proof to approve.

When do I pay?

Not until you've approved your ad proof.

How many homes will see my ad?

About 5,000 homes per mailing on the 9×12 Co-op Postcard and about 2,500 on the 6×12 Community Postcard.

How do I know it's working?

Your ad's QR code links to your listing on OrangeCountyScoop.com, and every scan is logged, so you can see how many neighbors responded.

Where do you mail?

Cities across Orange County, one neighborhood at a time. See the upcoming drops for where we're mailing next.

How soon will I hear back?

Within one business day of sending the Get Started form.
