You design a beautiful mailer, send it to print, then learn your postage just doubled because the piece is a hair too big. We see it all the time. Postage is often the largest line item in a mailing project, and small decisions on size, class, and format can make a big difference. At Foote Printing, we help you plan the print and the mailing together so your piece looks great and mails at the best possible rate. The Real Challenge: Navigating USPS Rules Without Blowing Your Budget Direct mail works, but the United States Postal Service has a set of rules that impact price and delivery speed. List size, mail class, indicia versus stamps, presort barcodes, size, and weight all affect what you pay. Our job is to simplify that maze. Before you design, we guide you on the specs that hit your goals and protect your budget. Choose the Right Mail Class for Your Campaign Picking the right class is step one. Here is how we help you decide: First-Class presort: Ideal for speed and more personal communications. Minimum of 500 pieces. Standard or Marketing Mail: Great for bulk marketing campaigns. Minimum of 200 pieces. Nonprofit Marketing Mail: If your organization qualifies, this is the best rate. We help you secure USPS nonprofit authorization. Our setup service is a one-time $300 fee to get you pointed in the right direction and ready to mail. We match your timeline, budget, and list size to the class that delivers the best value.

If you have ever felt like your print job got lost in the shuffle, you are not alone. Too many printers talk about being a family, yet your project ends up bouncing between strangers. At Foote Printing, family is not a slogan, it is how your job gets done right. The Problem Most Print Buyers Face Deadlines slip, details get missed, and communication falls apart when no one truly owns your project. You should not have to chase updates or worry about quality.

Finished pieces that match your expectations, on time. It is straightforward, and it works because the same people who promise the result are the ones who produce it. What You Get When You Print
Direct Mail vs. Email: Why the Mailbox Still Wins for Leads | Foote Printing

Picture this: your inbox is crammed with hundreds of unread messages, but your physical mailbox still gets your attention every single day. Even the “junk” gets a glance. That moment—those few seconds with something in your hand—is where brands are built and leads are made. At Foote Printing, we live at the intersection of print and direct marketing. We love email for its speed, but we’ve seen time and again that the mailbox delivers attention, trust, and results you just can’t get online alone. Here’s why—and how we help you make the most of it. The Real Problem: Digital Overload, Diminishing Attention Email is easy to send and cheaper per message, but that ease creates a flood. Your customers are overwhelmed, filters are aggressive, and messages blur together. Meanwhile, people open their mailbox daily, touch every piece, and form split-second judgments that stick. Our job is to make sure your piece earns those seconds—and turns them into action. The Attention Advantage in the Mailbox Daily habit: People check and sort their mail almost every day. Your message gets handled, not just “marked as read.” Built-in “open rate”: Even if someone tosses a postcard, they saw your brand, offer, and headline first. Sticky brand recall: That physical touch plants a memory that pays off when they see your name online later. Tangible Means Trustworthy A well-printed, well-designed piece signals legiti
