Your Business in
10,000+ Mailboxes.

Far from it — and the data backs that up. Direct mail has an 80–90% open rate vs. 20–30% for email. The average piece of mail stays in a home 17 days. And 57% of consumers say receiving physical mail makes them feel more valued by a business than a digital ad. Print isn't dead. Cheap print is. The Gazette is a quality publication people actually want to read.

Advertising builds awareness first, and action second. A homeowner who sees your name in the Gazette three editions in a row thinks of you the moment they need your service — that's the 17-day shelf life at work. Most service business leads come from recognition, not a single cold ad. Multi-edition advertisers see significantly better results than one-timers.

We mail through USPS Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM), which requires a verified delivery route and postage paid per piece. There's no way to fake the numbers — every copy has a stamp on it. You can also request a sample copy to see exactly what lands in homeowners' mailboxes.

You can — but Facebook organic posts now reach just 2–6% of your followers, and paid ads require daily management, constant testing, and a budget that disappears the moment you stop paying. The Gazette delivers a fixed, guaranteed reach for a fixed price. No algorithm changes. No wasted impressions on people who scrolled past in 1.7 seconds.

Yes — always. After you pay, we reach out within 24 hours to get your logo, your message, and your contact info. We handle everything from there. You approve a proof before it goes to print. No design experience required on your end.

That's the real risk. The Gazette offers one advertiser per business category per edition — once a plumber is in, no other plumber gets in. We're in early editions now, which means most categories are still open. But we do fill up before print, and we can't hold spots without payment. The advertiser who acts first locks in both the placement and the rate.
