Compare the service model before you request a quote.
The same EDDM campaign can require very different work from your team. Compare the audience, creative, production, and status responsibilities before choosing a provider path.
| Service model | Best fit | Your team still owns | Confirm before buying |
|---|---|---|---|
| USPS self-service path | Teams that can prepare the routes, piece, bundles, forms, and drop-off | Route selection, design, printing, preparation, and entry | Current eligibility, dimensions, route counts, forms, and entry steps |
| Local print or mail house | One-time sends that need local production help | Audience decision, approved creative, offer, and measurement plan | What the quote includes, proof process, postage, entry, timing, and status reporting |
| Managed direct-mail service | Teams that want planning and production support | Campaign goal, audience approval, offer approval, and final sign-off | Service scope, revision limits, data handling, price basis, and reporting |
| Self-serve software | Repeatable campaigns that need audience, creative, price, and status in one workflow | Route choice, message, proof approval, budget, and response measurement | Available EDDM path, current rate, account capabilities, and campaign review controls |
Normalize every quote: record the route count, piece size, quantity, design work, printing, postage, preparation, entry method, proof revisions, expected status reporting, taxes, and any plan or service fee.

How much does EDDM cost with Sendvo?
Sendvo publishes a flat EDDM rate of $0.65 per postcard across Local, Operator, and Growth. EDDM does not use the separate Operator or Growth non-EDDM rate schedule.

EDDM uses carrier routes, so it does not require a named-address list. Targeted mail uses an owned, prepared, or licensed audience when the campaign needs selected recipients.
What is the difference between EDDM and targeted mail?

Can home services teams use EDDM?
EDDM can fit a home services campaign that needs broad coverage in a service area and does not need named recipients. Use local targeting or an owned list when the job requires selected households or past customers.
How does direct mail automation relate to EDDM?
Automation is a separate workflow decision. Use it for repeatable triggers, review steps, and campaign operations. Confirm the audience path, current pricing, and account options before you submit a campaign.
Does Sendvo research show which EDDM creative works best?
No. Sendvo's broader research covers physical mail across 15 industries. It is not an EDDM-specific sample and does not measure response, revenue, ROI, or causation. Use the observed patterns to plan a controlled test, not to declare a winning format or offer.
