You have a new business and you want to let everyone know. While you have signed up for your very first telephone book ad, you just missed the new book, so it will be several months until people can find you there. You have seen other options, like advertising on local television channels, but you just are not sure if they are going to get results. What about designing a business postcard?

Business postcards are a great way to announce a new business quickly to a large group of people. You can design them to look the way you want them to look and can target specific people or businesses, which makes them a very cost effective option.

Of course, to mail the cards out, youll need to get the mailing addresses for your potential customers. If you are short on time, you can buy a mailing address list for your location from companies that specialise in collecting mailing addresses. You may still want to go through the list to weed out addresses that you know are wrong for your business, but you will still save considerable time.

If you have plenty of time on your hands and are tight on cash, you can create your own mailing list. Online phone directories with search functions make it much easier than it used to be to look up certain types of businesses or to find a group of addresses in one area.
