Direct Mail & Print Marketing Built for Your Industry
Early Express is a family-run, USPS-authorized direct mail and printing company in Dayton, Ohio, in business since 1977. We run industry-specific campaigns for eleven kinds of organizations, from home-service contractors to federal agencies. Every program is produced on one floor at 1333 E 2nd St: the mailing list, the printing, the postage and the retargeting, with no broker in the middle.
Who we work with
Choose Your Industry
Each page explains how Early Express approaches that industry: the list sources that work, the timing that matters, the pieces we mail most, and the questions clients ask before their first drop.

Why Early Express Builds Campaigns by Industry
A roofer and a financial advisor need different lists, different timing and different pieces. Storm-response mail has to reach damaged streets within days; a seminar invitation has to land three weeks before the event; a Medicare campaign has to respect enrollment windows and compliance rules. Early Express has run these programs long enough to know which list sources respond in each vertical, which offers pull, and when a drop should mail. That is why each industry gets its own playbook instead of a generic postcard.
The other difference is production. Early Express is a USPS-authorized presort provider with its own print floor, so a campaign is not handed from a designer to a printer to a mail house to a postage vendor. One team owns the data hygiene, the printing, the postage savings and the delivery documentation, and the same team answers the phone at 937-223-5801.
One production floor
The Same Services Power Every Industry Program
Every vertical page draws on the same set of Early Express services. If you already know what you need, go straight to the service:
- Targeted direct mail to purchased, house or new-mover lists, and Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) saturation at the lowest postage rate USPS offers.
- SiteChaser, which mails a postcard to the households behind your anonymous website visitors, and SignalChaser, which mails to households showing in-market search intent.
- New mover mail that reaches families the week they arrive, before they have chosen a dentist, an HVAC company or an insurance agent.
- Handwritten direct mail for major-donor, agent-farming and high-value prospect touches that need to get opened.
- Printing and graphic design, including variable data printing, and presort postage savings and metering on the mail you already send.
- IP targeting and GeoMoments event targeting to put digital ads in front of the same households your mail reaches.

Frequently asked questions
Questions About Industry Direct Mail
My industry is not listed. Can Early Express still help?
Yes. The eleven pages above are the industries Early Express mails for most often, but the same production floor runs campaigns for retailers, restaurants, schools, churches, manufacturers and professional services. Call 937-223-5801 or send a note through the contact page and we will tell you which list sources and formats have worked for businesses like yours.
Does Early Express only serve the Dayton, Ohio area?
No. Early Express produces every campaign at 1333 E 2nd St in Dayton, Ohio, and mails nationwide. Local clients get same-day proofs and can visit the floor; clients in other states work with the same team by phone, email and shared proofs.
How do I know which program fits my business?
Start with your industry page above. Each one lays out the two or three plays Early Express runs most for that vertical, how a typical campaign is priced, and the questions clients ask first. If you are between two industries, or none fits cleanly, a ten-minute call is the fastest way to a recommendation.
Can Early Express handle the list, the design and the postage, or just the mailing?
Either. Early Express can build the list, design the piece, print it, address it, presort it for postage savings and deliver it to USPS, or take finished artwork and a client-supplied list and handle only the mailing. Most industry campaigns use the full service because one team owning every step is what keeps the timing right.
