Sendsations Power Marketing has helped thousands of REALTORS®, Loan Officers and
other professionals build their businesses for over 25 years. We specialize in
creating personal and keepable postcard campaigns that help our clients build
and maintain profitable and loyal relationships with their past clients and
prospects. We have real people who answer the phone, real designers who make
your postcards look great, and a real sense of how to take care of our
customers.
How do your 12-month campaigns work?
We understand that consistent, personal, and keepable marketing touches build and maintain profitable relationships with your past clients and develop new relationships with your prospects.
Unfortunately, not everyone on your client and prospect list will need your professional services this week, this month, or even this year. Since everyone’s buying cycle is different, your marketing needs to arrive at the right time, or have a strong enough impact and shelf life to make them call you when they or someone they know need your help. Consistent monthly mailers keep your pipeline full and your phone ringing.
NAR research has found that sending fewer than eight mailings a year yields minimal results. Going from eight to 12 mailings a year increases your chances of success by 200%. For this reason, all of our postcard campaigns are assembled in 12–card sets. Many of our clients pick their favorite 12-card set, then add a few holiday cards and time change reminders to get 18 personal marketing touches out to their clients over the course of the year.
Flexibility - Can I mix and match or order less than a 12 card set?
Although mailing postcards every month with a consistent theme is the best way to brand your business, you can pick your favorite two sets and alternate between them every month. You can also order a 6 card set to be mailed every month for 6 months, or every other month for the year.
Can Sendsations mail my postcard for me?
Yes. Our EZMail Mailing Service is cheaper, easier, and more consistent than trying to mail the postcards yourself. Your cards will go out on time, every time without you lifting a finger, and you can easily edit your list through your online account 24/7. We mail out cards in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th weeks of the month. Once you have ordered and have chosen your mailing week, your cards will go on auto-pilot. When you use our mailing service you are able to make changes to your layout between mailings, which you cannot do if the cards are printed and shipped to you.

Do I have to use your EZMail Mailing Service?
No. If you live in Canada, or if you prefer to mail the cards yourself, we will print and ship your order to you via UPS ground.
Our EZMail Mailing Service is optional and is not offered in Canada. If you wish, we’ll ship all your cards to you so that you can mail them yourself.
Can I add people to my mailing list in the middle of my campaign?
Yes. When you use our EZMail® Mailing Service, you are able to log into your account anytime to add and delete addresses. If you add addresses, we will simply charge you for the increase on top of your monthly EZMail postage payment. The price will be the same as your original price per card.
Can I customize the layout of the postcards?
Yes. Our standard and most popular designs and layout can be found
here. There
is plenty of room to customize the postcards. Give us a call and let us know
what you have in mind. Also, all of our cards have a unique call to action
relating to your industry. If you are trying to target a certain audience, and
prefer to write your own messages, give us a call for the specifications and
pricing.
Can I design my own custom postcards?
Yes. You can design your own cards or our design team can help. We can design,
print and mail announcement cards, just listed and just sold cards, recruiting
cards, etc.
What are the photo requirements?
Digital photos need to be a minimum of 300 dpi in one of the following standard
formats: TIFF, EPS, JPEG, PDF, or PSD (Photoshop Document). Please make sure
your high-resolution photo is at least 300kb, but smaller than 3 megabytes. If
you are scanning the photo yourself, please make sure your scanner resolution is
set to at least 350 dpi (or ppi). If the photo is smaller than 3" wide, set your
scanner to 400 dpi. (Click here to upload your photo.)
If you would rather have us scan your original photo, please mail it to 1074 N
Industrial Park Dr. Orem, UT 84057. We will return it to you.
What are the mailing list requirements?
We accept your mailing list in the following formats:
Microsoft Excel (.xls), Comma Delimited (.csv), Plain Text (.txt), or ACSII
if
you need help exporting a database from Top Producer, OfficeAgent, etc., please
contact us for instructions. Once we have your list, we will create a secure
online account and email you a username and password.
(Click here to upload your database.)
Is my mailing list secure?
Yes. Once you have logged into your account and changed your password, you are the only person who has access to your list. If you forget your password, give us a call and we can reset your account. Also, we do not share your list or use the information on your list for any other purpose that to mail out your personalized postcards.
Can I change my layout information in the middle of my program?
Yes. This is another benefit of using our EZMail service. If you need to change
the information on your postcard layout, just let us know as soon as possible so
we can update your layout before the next mailing. A $49 change fee will be
added to your next EZMail postage payment.
How long is my contract?
Our postcards sets are sold in 12 cards sets, thus your contract is for 12
months. We do not cancel contracts. If something comes up and you need to skip a
mailing or even a few mailings, just let us know. We can put your campaign on
hold for up to 6 months.
What kind of paper do you use?
We use thick 11 point card stock for all of our postcard orders, and 14 point for all business card orders. We also apply a high-gloss UV coating to the front side of every card.
Are the postcards recyclable?
Yes.
What are your business hours?
We are available from 8am – 5pm MST, Monday through Friday.
Do you have a referral program?
Yes. Like you, we grow our business through our clients and their referrals. When you refer someone who orders one of our 12 card sets, you will get $50 off of your next printing or postage payment. (They must order at least 200/mo)
Do you ship to Canada?
Yes. We have an un-addressed ad mail layout and another layout that enables you to apply address labels and stamps. Our printing and UPS shipping are charged in USD and does not include any applicable GST or brokerage fees. We declare your shipment to be worth $3 per pound, which is roughly 30% of the retail value, so any applicable GST or brokerage fees will be calculated at a much lower declared rate than retail.
