Why Use Automotive Direct Mail Postcards?
Automotive postcards are a fast, cost-effective way to reach your audience with personalized marketing that gets noticed. Postcards don’t require envelopes, which means your message is visible immediately.
Postcards can help you:
-
Promote dealership events and seasonal sales.
-
Boost customer retention and service visits.
-
Drive trade-in or buyback campaigns.
-
Highlight financing options or special offers.
-
Re-engage past customers with personalized messaging.
Additionally, direct mail has a significantly higher open rate (80-90%) compared to email (20-30%) and recipients spend more time interacting with a physical piece of mail.
When combined with demographic and geographic targeting, direct mail postcards get two to three times the amount of open rates than email marketing does.

What Makes SMG Automotive Postcards Different
1. Personalized Printing with Variable Data
Using variable data printing, every postcard can be customized with the recipient’s name, vehicle type, purchase history, or service reminders. This personal touch increases response rates and makes your outreach feel more genuine.
2. Targeted Mailing Lists
We help you target the most promising prospects using data such as location, vehicle ownership, and lifestyle demographics. This ensures your postcards are delivered to households most likely to take action.
3. High-Quality Printing, In-House
Through our partnership with L+L Printers, SMG handles all postcard printing and mailing in-house. This guarantees exceptional print quality, fast turnaround, and complete control over every campaign detail.
4. Measurable Results
