Printing Your Postcards

by Techsplosive on July 1, 2010

Designing your own postcards can be a fun way to show your creativity, and there are companies available to do the postcard printing for you. Postcards can be used for a multitude of reasons. They make great sales tools, they’re easy to carry in a purse or briefcase, and you can have your logo and contact information on them as well as promotional notices. Unlike small business cards, postcards have the space to add pictures of your product and other graphics that can attract customers’ attention.

You can create postcards to announce a move, showing your new address and phone number. Jazz it up and add a picture of your new home. This provides a personal touch to your announcement, and your friends and family will enjoy seeing your new place.

Postcards can be used for other announcements such as births and graduations. These days, people are even designing their own wedding invitations and using postcards instead of a bi-folded card.

Postcards can be printed on a variety of paper stocks, including different thicknesses and with a matte or glossy finish. They’re also available in a wide range of sizes, typically from 4” x 6” to 6” to 11”. Some printers use ultraviolet coating for the highest quality and durability. You might choose to finish your postcards with the UV coating if, for instance, you’re using them for a sales show where you’ll be passing out postcards to potential clients and want your product information to stand out from the competition.

Postcard printers often have templates and designs that you can use. In a matter of minutes, you can have your postcard ready for printing. Other services might include either offset printing for large orders or digital printing for shorter runs. In many cases, you can have your postcards the same day that you submit your design.
