The 4 x 6 postcard remains one of the most effective and versatile marketing formats for businesses of all sizes.
Whether you are launching a new product, announcing a special offer, driving traffic to a storefront, or
supporting a direct mail campaign, professionally printed 4 x 6 postcards and rack cards deliver clarity,
convenience, and measurable results without breaking the budget.
At Worlds Cheapest Direct Mail Printing, we understand what it takes to produce postcards that not only look
great but also perform exceptionally well in real world marketing. Our 4 x 6 postcards are printed with premium
cardstock, full color inks, and industry leading quality control processes to ensure the crispest visuals and
most vibrant colors possible.
Why 4 x 6 Postcards Work
The 4 x 6 postcard size strikes the perfect balance between visibility and affordability. It is large enough to
showcase essential messaging, eye catching graphics, and clear call to action elements, yet compact enough to
maintain excellent mailing rates and display adaptability. This makes the format perfect for both direct mail
and in person distribution.
Many local businesses leverage 4 x 6 postcards as a primary touchpoint in their marketing mix. The size fits
easily into standard postal workflows, brochure racks, point of sale displays, and hand distribution at
events.
Premium Printing Quality That Matters
First impressions count. Poor print quality can undermine brand credibility and reduce engagement. That is why
our 4 x 6 postcards are produced using high resolution printing presses and premium card stocks. Sharp text,
rich colors, and precise registration ensure that your brand looks professional and trustworthy.
You can choose from multiple finishes to match your campaign goals:
- Gloss Finish for vibrant and eye catching results
- Matte Finish for understated elegance and readability
- UV Coating for added durability and moisture resistance
How 4 x 6 Postcards Are Used
The versatility of 4 x 6 postcards makes them suitable for a wide range of marketing uses:
- Direct mail campaigns to local or segmented customer lists
- Rack card displays in storefronts, hotels, or visitor centers
- Event handouts at trade shows, fairs, and community gatherings
- Door to door distribution
- Appointment reminders and customer retention offers
Using Postcards With EDDM and Targeted Mail
While USPS Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) has minimum postcard size requirements, many businesses combine
4 x 6 postcards with larger EDDM formats to enhance their reach and reinforce brand messaging.
Use our EDDM postcard printing if your campaign needs saturated delivery and
broad neighborhood penetration. Pairing 4 x 6 postcards with EDDM pieces helps create touchpoint frequency for
higher engagement rates.
Design Tips for Maximum Engagement
To maximize results from your postcard campaign:
- Use a bold headline that communicates your main offer instantly
- Include strong visuals to draw the eye
- Place a clear call to action such as "Call Today" or "Visit Us"
- Use QR codes to drive mobile engagement and track effectiveness
- Limit text length to ensure readability at a glance
