Why Small Businesses Choose My Zip Ads
Most local advertising costs thousands and delivers inconsistent results. Reach your local community every month for the same price most companies spend on just 2 or 3 mailings.
Each postcard is instantly visible — no envelopes, no flipping through books, no algorithms hiding your ad.
It’s like having a billboard delivered straight into every home.

Our Mission and Vision
Our Mission
At MyZipAds, our mission is simple — help businesses stay visible, build recognition, and become the names people remember in their community.
We connect local businesses with nearby customers through direct mail, digital features, local events, exclusive offers, and community partnerships.
Because the businesses people choose are usually the businesses they already know.
Our Vision
We believe strong communities are built when residents discover and support the businesses around them.
Our vision is to create a growing network of community connections — where local businesses, events, offers, and neighborhoods come together.
MyZipAds is more than advertising.
It’s about being seen, being remembered, and being part of the community.
Why My Zip Ads Works
Think of it as a billboard that lands in every mailbox — and your business is the only one in its category.
You stay visible, exclusive, and unforgettable.

The Problem with Most Advertising
Most local ads cost too much and disappear too fast.
• Traditional EDDM mailers cost about $3,000 per drop to reach 5,000 homes.
• To get noticed, you need 2–3 drops — that’s $6,000–$9,000 for just three months and 15,000 homes.
• Online ads are crowded — you’re competing for clicks, and your ad rotates out in seconds.
• Coupon books and envelopes must be opened — if they’re tossed, your ad is never seen.
The My Zip Ads Difference
MyZipAds delivers your business through a monthly community visibility system combining direct mail, digital editions, social features, events, and local partnerships.
Each card features up to 16 local businesses — but only one per category.
That means if you’re the pizza shop, you’re the only pizza shop on that card.
No envelopes. No scrolling. No competing logos.
We all know postcard mailers work — we just made them affordable and turned them into your branding tool.
Even if a homeowner throws it away, they still see your logo 12 times a year.
That’s how brand recognition is built — through repetition.
“It’s billboard exposure for local businesses — at a fraction of the cost.”
Beyond the Mailbox: Digital & Social Exposure
MyZipAds combines the power of direct mail with digital visibility, helping local businesses build recognition both inside and outside the mailbox.
Participating businesses may also be featured through MyZipAds' own digital platforms, community promotions and social media channels.
Optional Social Media Support
Need help staying active on social media? MyZipAds also offers custom social media support for participating businesses.
Basic social media posting, up to one post per week, starts at $3,900 for six months or $6,000 for twelve months.
Additional content, video production, animation and custom campaigns are available by quote.
Contact us for details.
Affordable, Continuous Visibility
When business slows, many companies reduce their advertising. Consistent visibility helps keep your business familiar to potential customers.
MyZipAds makes repeat direct-mail advertising more affordable by allowing local businesses to share the cost of reaching approximately 10,000 households each month.
Instead of paying for an entire mailing yourself, your business receives its own advertising space with protection for its approved category.
It's the power of repeated local exposure without the expense of producing an entire postcard on your own.
Our mailing routes may vary within each mailing area, allowing us to reach households across participating communities while maintaining your approved category protection.
Packages & Pricing

At checkout, you can use PayPal, Klarna, or similar services for installment options.
These are offered through those providers, not through My Zip Ads.
Auto-Renewal Protection
Your category stays locked with automatic renewal, so your competition can never take your spot.
Renewals can happen 2 months before your plan ends to secure your placement.
If you wish to cancel, just notify us 3 months before renewal.
This system keeps your ad active and your exclusivity protected.
Your Guarantee of Protection
MyZipAds offers category-exclusive advertising within each applicable mailing area.
Before you purchase, we'll review your business category and confirm availability.
Once your placement is approved, your agreement is completed and payment is received, your category is secured for your advertising term.
This process helps protect participating advertisers and prevents conflicting businesses from being placed in the same protected category within the applicable mailing area.
This preserves the value of exclusivity without implying that submitting the inquiry form immediately reserves a spot.
