While digital marketing can disappear quickly, the right print strategy provides unbeatable staying power.
For print shops, June is more than a seasonal slowdown. It’s a chance to equip your business with ready-to-use campaigns that help you stay in front of print buyers and spark new conversations.
This month’s lineup is built to help you do exactly that: sell smarter, stay visible, and position print as a long-term marketing solution, especially with high-impact tools like calendars.
Each piece is professionally written, designed, and ready for you to brand and deploy, so you can focus on selling, not creating.
Direct Mail For Printers Options
FastStart
This month’s FastStart campaign gives you a complete, ready-to-use way to start conversations around one of the most effective print products available: calendars.
Built around the theme “Visibility: 365,” this multi-piece campaign (mailer + postcard) helps you position calendars as a high-value marketing tool, not just a giveaway.
Instead of figuring out how to promote calendars yourself, you get:
- Proven messaging that sells long-term visibility
- A structured campaign you can send immediately
- A timely angle (summer planning) that creates urgency
How this helps you sell printing:
It gives you a turnkey campaign to confidently promote and sell calendar programs to your customers.
Simply brand it, send it, and start the conversation.
Coffee Break
Designed to keep you consistently in touch with your customers, the Coffee Break newsletter is a lighthearted 8.5″ x 14″ direct mail piece you can brand and mail each month.
Packed with humor, engaging fillers, and a useful calendar, it gives you a non-salesy reason to stay in front of customers, while still reinforcing your print services.
Standout jokes like:
- “A guy just threw milk at me… How dairy?!”
- What do you call a detective who just solves cases accidentally? Sheer Luck Holmes.
- Whoever came up with the word dentures really missed the opportunity to call them “substitooths.”
…make this piece memorable and shareable.
How this helps you sell printing:
It keeps your name in front of customers month after month, so when your print buyers need print, you’re the first call.
Local Edge
The Local Edge postcard (6″ x 11″) is built to help you reinforce one of your biggest advantages: being a local print partner.
With messaging like “Next Year Starts Now,” this piece helps you introduce calendar planning in a way that feels proactive and strategic, not salesy.
It positions you as:
- A planner, not just a printer
- A partner, not just a vendor
- A local expert with real support
How this helps you sell printing:
It gives you a simple, effective way to start conversations about larger-print projects, especially for repeat-use items like calendars.
National Direct Mail
This month’s National Direct Mail package is centered on a timely and highly sellable theme: calendar marketing and early planning for year-round visibility.
Built around headlines like “Make This Summer Count All Year” and “Stay Seen. Stay Remembered,” this multi-piece campaign (including a teaser envelope, postcard, foldover mailer, and email and social marketing content) gives you a complete, ready-to-use way to promote custom-branded calendars as a strategic marketing tool, not just a seasonal giveaway.
The messaging walks your customers through:
- Why calendars deliver 365 days of brand exposure
- How they outperform short-lived digital marketing
- Why summer is the ideal time to plan and pre-order
It also includes built-in offers like early order discounts and free design consultations, making it easier for you to create urgency and close sales.
How this helps you sell printing:
This package gives you a fully developed campaign to position calendars as a high-value, repeatable print program, helping you generate larger orders now while setting up recurring business year after year.
