  1. List research
  2. List procurement
  3. Printing

  8. Postage

Using an example of 5,000 households, if you were to do this yourself, postage alone would cost 2 stamps per mailer and each stamp is 58¢. So that’s already over a dollar a piece.  Then add the cost of printing, and design, which adds up to several thousand dollars.
