One business per trade
Free design on offer, or bring your own art
Every design blessed by an award-winning pro
Spots start at a $250 monthly donation, or $2,400 for a full year.
Every neighborhood page shows its real card, spot by spot, and the postal routes it walks. Every donor-partner gets a printed copy of their card in the mail.
How it works
Three steps from your trade to their kitchen counter.
01
Claim your trade.
Pick a neighborhood, check that your trade is open, then choose your size and your months.
02
We design it with you, or bring your art.
Young designers at The Missing Pixel Project can design your ad free, mentored by award-winning pros. Or send your own art. Either way, nothing prints without your yes.
03
It lands in 10,000+ mailboxes.
We print it and mail it to every mailbox on the neighborhood's postal routes. Then a printed copy comes to you.
Award-winning professional designers mentor every student, and no design goes out without an award-winning pro's blessing.We'd love to design your ad for you, free. It's an offer, never a requirement, and your own art is always welcome.

Five questions we hear most
Can I see a card?
Every neighborhood page shows its real card, spot by spot: which spots are reserved and which are open. Every donor-partner gets a printed copy of their card in the mail.
Both. Your donation reserves your spot and funds the training.
How does paying work?
Per card, per month, per neighborhood. You choose your size and your months, then pay once, securely, for all of them. Reserve 3 to 11 months and save 10%. Reserve 12 or more and save 20%. Every monthly figure on our site shows its full-year total beside it.
Who designs my ad?
We'd love to design it for you, free. Young designers at The Missing Pixel Project do the work, mentored by award-winning professional designers. It's an offer, never a requirement, and your own art is always welcome.
Will it work for me?
We won't promise you a number. What we can share is what independent research says about mail.
People trust it. Asked which ads they trust when deciding what to buy, 76% of 1,200 Americans picked ads they get in the mail, against 39% for online banner ads (MarketingSherpa, 2017).
People remember it. In a 2015 study by the Postal Service's Office of Inspector General and Temple University, people had a stronger emotional response to ads on postcards than to ads in email, and remembered them better.
It stays in the home. Mail delivered to every door, as our card is, stays in the home about six days and gets handled about three times, says a UK panel that tracks the mail of 1,100 homes (JICMAIL, 2026).
It works with your online ads, not against them. A QR code on your ad gives a curious neighbor one tap to your website.
It builds over time. Mail from a business people already know gets read far more than mail from a new name, and mail from a new name can be the first step to a neighbor becoming your customer (Postal Service Office of Inspector General, 2019). Mail builds memory and trust over months, not days.
We promise this: every card you're on goes to every mailbox on its routes. If you need leads within 30 days, this isn't that, and we'd rather tell you now.
