FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common Questions About Direct Mail & Omnichannel Marketing

  • Is direct mail marketing still effective in 2025 and 2026?

    Yes — direct mail achieves a 4.4% average response rate, dramatically higher than email (0.12%) or paid digital display. When combined with digital channels, the USPS reports campaigns see up to 40% higher conversion rates. In an era of digital noise and inbox fatigue, physical mail stands out more than ever. Early Express clients consistently see strong ROI across direct mail, EDDM, and retargeting programs.

  • What is SiteChaser and how does direct mail retargeting work?

    SiteChaser is Early Express's programmatic direct mail retargeting solution. A lightweight tracking pixel is installed on your website. When anonymous visitors browse your pages, we capture their IP address, match it to a verified home mailing address, and automatically send a targeted mail piece — typically within 24 to 48 hours. No login or form submission is required. Documented return on ad spend (ROAS) for SiteChaser campaigns exceeds 1,900%.

  • What is SignalChaser and how is it different from SiteChaser?

    SignalChaser is Early Express's intent-based direct mail program. While SiteChaser retargets people who visit your website, SignalChaser reaches in-market prospects who are actively searching online for products or services like yours — even if they've never been to your site. We capture real-time buying-intent signals and trigger a targeted mail piece to those high-intent households, putting your offer in front of them while they're still shopping.

  • How does new mover marketing work?

    New mover marketing targets households that have recently relocated into your service area. New movers spend more in their first 90 days than at almost any other time, and brand loyalties are still forming. Early Express identifies recently moved homes on a weekly basis and delivers your offer while these new residents are actively choosing local businesses and services.

  • What is Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) and is it right for my business?

    EDDM is a USPS program that lets you saturate an entire carrier route — every address — without needing a mailing list. Early Express handles route selection, design, printing, and all USPS paperwork. EDDM is ideal for local businesses, restaurants, real estate agents, and service companies expanding into new areas. Postage rates for EDDM are among the lowest available.

  • Does Early Express offer integrated omnichannel campaigns?

    Yes. We build campaigns that combine direct mail with IP-targeted digital display ads, geofencing (Geo Moments), SiteChaser retargeting, and new mover targeting. Integrated campaigns allow your prospect to see a consistent message in their mailbox, on their computer, and on their mobile device — dramatically increasing brand recall and response rates. USPS studies show the combination increases ROI for 60% of campaigns.

  • How much does a direct mail campaign cost?

    Costs vary based on list size, mail piece format, design complexity, postage class, and targeting precision. EDDM campaigns can start at just a few hundred dollars for a local run. Early Express provides free project estimates with no obligation — contact us at (937) 223-5801 or submit a quote request online to get accurate pricing for your specific campaign goals.

  • Is Early Express USPS-authorized?

    Yes. Early Express has operated as a USPS-authorized direct mail company since 1977 — over 40 years of compliance expertise. We hold bulk mail permits, manage presort operations in-house, handle all USPS documentation, and actively optimize postage costs on every project. Our expertise with postal regulations helps avoid delays and eliminate unexpected costs on every campaign.

  • What industries does Early Express serve?

    We have run campaigns for healthcare, real estate, automotive, financial services, nonprofits, political campaigns, home services, restaurants and retail, education, legal and professional services, government agencies, and e-commerce brands. Our 40+ years of experience spans virtually every vertical — and we understand the compliance requirements and targeting strategies specific to each.

  • Where is Early Express located, and do you serve national clients?

    Our production facility is located at 1333 E 2nd St., Dayton, Ohio 45403. We serve businesses of all sizes nationwide — from single-location small businesses to regional and national campaigns.
