With a picture perfect background, postcards can be a very cost effective yet enduring promotional mechanism. More often than not, postcards like these are used as handwritten notes to friends, families etc. With a postcard as a give away item/gift with purchase, you create marketing with meaning; you give your consumers something of intrinsic value to them, which they definitely can use at some point of time.  Recipients associate your brand with beautiful memories, something much more deeper than other forms of marketing.

All in all, postcards are a great promotional product for any licensed properties.
