The first and second line should be written in such a way that you objective in the headline and subheading are fulfilled effectively. You need to hook the readers to read the rest.

• Do not forget to put your logo in your postcard printing. The one thing would help create brand recognition for you. A well-designed logo will keep you visible in the market, allowing people to remember you in case they need your products and services. A good place to put your logo is at the bottom of the card. It should be no larger than your phone number, but large enough for a person with eye problem to read and dial.

• Personalize your card. The traditional ones you buy from specialty shops and the post office are good for reference mailings, but if you want a sales post card, then create your own design. Personalizing your card gives people the impression that you take time to think of them when designing the card.

• Yours does not have to be in full color. Full color printing can be expensive. There are now cost effective options to expensive printing such as two- or four-color printing. If your budget does not allow for full color, then go for the less expensive color option.

• Print a response card at the back of the card. This is ideal when you want to get feedbacks, subscriptions or update your database. Inform your recipients to mail back the card with the information you need.
