Why 6.5" × 8" EDDM works for home services (plumbing, electric, painting)

Plumbers, electricians, painters, pest control and gutter cleaners share one marketing challenge: you need to be the name homeowners remember before the problem happens. EDDM puts your brand in front of every homeowner on a route, so when something breaks, your card is on the fridge.

Home Services (Plumbing, Electric, Painting) campaign ideas for this mailer

• Service introduction

  Mail a new ZIP code with your core service and a new-customer offer: 'Now serving your neighborhood.' It is an efficient way to break into a new area.

• Seasonal demand

  Gutter cleaning before fall, AC tune-ups before summer, pipe winterization before the first freeze. A timely offer is more relevant than a generic one.

• Route density expansion

  Mail the neighborhoods next to your busiest service areas. More jobs on streets you already drive cuts travel time and fits more work into each day.

Laying out a home services mailer at 6.5" × 8"

At 6.5" × 8" space is tight, so keep the front to one offer and one call to action, and move everything else to the back. Your trade, your phone number, and a first-visit offer, readable from across the kitchen. A magnet-style layout (logo and number repeated on the back) helps the card stay around.

• Artboard with bleed: 6.75 × 8.25 in; trim: 6.5 × 8 in
• Keep your phone number, offer and logo inside the 6.25 × 7.75 in safe area
• At 6.5 inches on its short side it clears the 6.125-inch height rule by 0.375 inch; the 8-inch length is under 10.5, so height is the qualifying dimension.
