Bright vibrant color postcards are a proven marketing tool to reach out to your prospective customers and influence them into buying your products and services. This is the most cost-effective medium to communicate with your customer and to keep them updated with relevant information. Postcards have been used as marketing tools for ages, but with the advancement of printing technologies, full color postcards have gradually replaced black and white postcards.

Full color postcards make an instant impact in the mind of the customers because of its eye catching and appealing design. In these days, customers are time starved and do not have the time to go through lengthy texts. Postcards offer higher readability than multi-page brochures, booklet, or catalogue and more cost effective. The simple format and the design entice the customer to glance through a postcard in shortest possible time while comprehending the message.

The postcards are done on an offset press but to have a more personalized touch digital printing is advancing to become a more popular method. Digital printing is still more effective and with features such as "variable data printing" techniques each postcard is printed with a unique and personalized approach.

Color management has improved so much by offering you an opportunity to see the original print as shown on the monitor or during the design stage. You can make the postcard more attractive by adding metallic or fluorescent colors.

The choice of stock, substrate on which the final printing will take place, is also a critical parameter for ultimate look and the quality of the postcards. There are many choices available today for stocks like gloss finish, matte finish, pearl finish etc. Depending on the design, you have to select the stock. You can also decide to give some sort of special effect to the printed postcards to emphasize specific area of the text or image by applying UV varnish or special effect varnish.

Your budget will determine the number of postcards to be printed, but please note, that it is cheaper to print in larger quantities using offset printing and smaller quantities using the digital press method.
