Remember The Days Of Cheap Postage?   They're Still Here

Shared Mail or "Marriage Mail" Lets You Reduce Your Postage Cost

Now you can mail your message to almost any household at a fraction of the postage cost. With shared mail, your printed piece is mailed with other advertiser at a substantial savings.

Because a number of flyers (or inserts) are mailed together in one package (hence the term "shared mail" or "marriage mail") the cost of delivery is shared by all participants. It's a great way to saturate the entire community.

Through the years, Bagwell Marketing has placed many of our clients in this program. Our turnkey program includes the design, printing and distribution of your shared mail program. We have handled projects from 20,000 pieces to over a million pieces a month for a client in the rent-to-own business.

Our expertise in designing a customized advertising plan means your campaign is on target and on budget.
