Automated letter-sending platforms are becoming increasingly popular, but they’re not always the most cost-effective option for despatching your print marketing.

Stop overpaying

Are print costs draining your marketing budget?

Targeted print marketing has become a staple for many agencies, especially those who rely on consistent prospecting to stay visible in their local market. Automated letter‑sending platforms have made it easier than ever to trigger campaigns at scale, but the convenience of built‑in print‑and‑post services often comes with a higher price tag than many teams realise.

The hidden cost of convenience

Outsourced printing is attractive because it removes the admin: no printers, no envelopes, no postage runs. But when every letter is charged at a premium rate, the spend can escalate quickly—particularly for branches sending regular prospecting campaigns or large volumes of targeted mailers.

A difference of just a few pence per letter may seem small in isolation, yet across a year of consistent activity it can become one of the most significant marketing costs an agency carries.

Why print quality still matters

Despite the rise of digital marketing, physical letters continue to outperform many online channels for homeowner engagement. They feel personal, they’re harder to ignore, and they reinforce brand presence in a way social media or email simply can’t.

That means quality can’t be compromised. Agencies need crisp print, strong branding, and reliable delivery—without paying a premium for the privilege.
