6x9 Postcards

Newsletter postcards are a highly effective alternative to a traditional newsletter. Smaller amounts of information are easier to digest, and since the postcard is already open for viewing, your recipients are more likely to read it right away. In addition, 6x9 postcards cost less to design, print, and send in the mail. Make the most of your mini newsletters with the following tricks:

• Send out your newsletter postcard with more frequency because it is easier to design and print. The amount of content that fits on 6x9 postcards is perfect for a weekly or bi-weekly newsletter.
• Eliminate the envelope and you have an instant marketing tool. Your recipients don’t even have to open an envelope to see your headlines.
• Condense your content and make it easier to read than a traditional newsletter. For those who do not have enough content for a full newsletter, this postcard alternative is perfect.
• Short blurbs about tips and tricks, lists, and facts and figures fit very nicely on newsletter postcards.
• Only highlight one article instead of several. You can fit about 400 words on 6x9 postcards, so make your words count.
• Useful information should be the focus, but you can add a small amount of marketing content as well.
• Keep the font size 10-12 pt. so that it is easy to read.
• Leave out the table of contents since there is only the front and back sides.
• Place your content in columns to keep the newsletter feel.
• Use a nameplate at the top of your newsletter postcards. Nameplates should include issue number, date, and name of newsletter.
• Always include your contact information and your web address.
• Get your 6x9 postcards printed professionally in full color on quality card stock for the best impression.

If you have never designed a postcard newsletter before, you may be stumped as to where to start with your design. Simply look up some examples online for inspiration and go from there!
