Remember the excitement of getting something special in your mailbox? Direct mail isn’t just holding on—it’s coming back strong. As digital exhaustion grows in fall 2025, clever marketers are rediscovering how physical mail can grab attention and deliver results.
1. Marketers Are Doubling Down—Big Time
Businesses are not reducing their direct mail efforts; instead, they’re ramping them up. On average, companies intend to double their direct mail volume, from 34.9 million pieces in 2024 to 67.3 million in 2025. Significantly, 81% of brands plan to raise their direct mail budgets this year. The takeaway is evident: direct mail has moved beyond being a backup option and now plays a primary role.
2. Personalization, Powered by Data—It’s Smarter Than Ever
Generic mail? That’s so yesterday. This fall, the winners are those using highly personalized mail pieces:
Personalized letters with variable text data enable customized messaging, offers, and content based on each recipient’s preferences or past actions, giving every piece a personal touch.
Top-performing marketers are 160% more likely to use high-quality data and automation to deliver personalized messages at scale.
Better Letter simplifies this process—creating mail that feels personalized, not generic.
3. Automation & Tracking Are Closing the Loop
Mailing no longer feels separate from performance. Today, efficient marketers are 32% more likely to utilize automation tools, making direct mail as easy to send as an email.
4. USPS Incentives Make Now the Ideal Moment
Postage rates are constantly increasing. However, the good news is that USPS has paused rate hikes until early 2026, providing marketers with some relief.
– Intelligent mail features
– Continuous contact and First-Class options
Pairing these with enhancements like Intelligent Mail Barcodes can lead to even greater savings. Better Letter helps you maximize every incentive, ensuring your marketing budget stretches further.

Incorporating direct mail into an email campaign can lead to a 68% rise in website visits, a 40% increase in conversions, and a 60% boost in overall ROI.That’s why consistent branding between your print advertising and your digital presence is critical.
