Hey Everyone!
So I searched before I decided to post to make sure not wasting anyone's time. About to kick off my DM campaign this week and have one question I can't figure out. For this first campaign I am ordering the postcards and mailing them out myself. Whether it be mailing to houses we find DfD or the list I am going to obatain, I'd rather send them myself to get a feel for it all. My question is this, I am ordering from Vista print and they have the option to also get exact amount of envelopes and also print return address for a fee. The price all looks good, have to factor in stamps, but wouldn't they defeat the purpose of a postcard? I am just not sure what response rate would be better. Just a flat out postcard or one in an envelope with a hand written address on front? Any advise would be great!
