What Schools Use Magnet Mailers For

A save-the-date gets lost in the pile. A magnet keeps the date, the link and the phone number in sight for months.

Alumni & Reunions

Save-the-dates for reunion weekends, homecoming and alumni events.

Giving Days & Fundraising

Day of Giving, annual fund and campaign mailings with the giving link on the magnet.

Admissions & Enrollment

Open houses, visit days and application deadlines for students and families.

New Programs

New degrees, certificates and continuing education programs, with a QR code to learn more.

Athletics & Events

Game-day schedules, season calendars and campus events.

K-12 Schools & Districts

School-year calendars, enrollment reminders and the numbers families need.

Our Education Work

A few of the pieces we’ve mailed directly for colleges and schools. Much of our school work is produced for printers and agencies, so it stays confidential.

Your Mailing List, Handled Carefully

Most schools mail to their own alumni, donor or family list. No list? We can supply one.

Your Own List

Send us your alumni, donor or family list and we update moved addresses (NCOA), check every address (CASS), remove duplicates and presort for the lowest postage. Your list is used only for your mailing, never sold or shared.

Consumer Lists From Us

Reaching new families? We supply consumer mailing lists for your area, targeted by location, age and household.

EDDM

Want every household in your district? EDDM delivers to every home on the carrier routes you choose, with no list needed.

Printers and Agencies: You Stay Front and Center

Much of our school and university work comes through print companies and agencies that don’t produce magnet mailers themselves. You keep the client; we produce and mail behind the scenes.

  • Your client, your credit – You stay the contact. We never reach out to your client.
  • Blind shipping – Nothing that points back to us.
  • Mailed under your indicia – So it looks like you handled everything.

Questions Schools Ask

How far ahead should we order?

Smaller mailings typically take 2–3 weeks, and larger mailings can take up to a month. For a save-the-date, plan for it to arrive two to three months before the event.

Can you mail to our alumni or donor list?

Yes, that’s what most schools do. We clean and presort your list and use it only for your mailing.

Can you reach every family in our district?

Yes. EDDM reaches every household on the carrier routes you choose, or we can supply a list of families in your area.

Can our agency or printer handle the project?

Yes. Many of our school projects come through printers and agencies. We work behind the scenes, under their name.

Can you work with our purchasing office?

Yes. We provide a W-9, and purchase orders are welcome.

Can we see the product first?

Of course. Request a free sample pack to see the print quality and magnet strength for yourself.
