SendJim is built on a hyper-targeted direct mail marketing engine for home services. Postcards, handwritten cards, letters, EDDM, and Radius Bomb neighbor mailings, sent to the right households, not just every household.
And the same platform runs the rest of the follow-up. When a job closes, SendJim automatically reaches nearby homeowners, asks happy customers for reviews, reminds past customers when they’re due for service, and keeps texting unclosed leads until they convert.
New leads get instant texts. Past customers get voicemail drops. Happy customers get review requests. All from one dashboard, all triggered off Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, and the other CRMs you already use.
SendJim isn’t a tool you bolt onto a printer. It’s the direct mail marketing platform that mails your postcards, runs your automation, and tracks your results, in one place, on month-to-month, cancel-anytime pricing.

Both can mail postcards to a list of homeowners, but they’re built for different jobs.
Best Postcards is a print-and-mail vendor that helps small businesses across many industries design, print, and mail postcards, handle EDDM, and work through a sales rep on a per-campaign basis. The deliverable is the printed postcard in the mailbox.
SendJim is a direct mail marketing platform built specifically for home service businesses. The mail itself is hyper-targeted: Predictive Lookalike Lists tuned to your service vertical, Radius Bomb neighbor mailings around completed jobs, and the whole follow-up machine runs around it. SMS broadcasts, ringless voicemail, gifts, review automation, and CRM-triggered sequences from Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, and the other CRMs contractors run on. All from one dashboard, with all-in pricing and cancel-anytime terms.
No. Best Postcards is a print-and-mail service. They handle the design, printing, and mailing of postcards and EDDM campaigns. There’s no SMS broadcasting, voicemail drops, review automation, or CRM-triggered follow-up sequences in their product.
SendJim does both sides. Every completed job in your CRM can fire a full follow-up sequence automatically: postcards to neighbors, instant texts to new leads, voicemail drops to past customers, review requests to happy clients, and reminders when service is due. SMS broadcasts, ringless voicemail, gifts, and review automation are all native to the platform, no extra tools, no manual follow-up.
SendJim gives every customer a personal account manager and backs it up with a real human support team. Actual people who answer the phone, jump on chats, and help you set up campaigns, troubleshoot integrations, and refine your strategy, not a ticketing queue. The team knows home service contractors, your CRM, and what actually works.
Best Postcards assigns a sales-and-account team during the campaign-building process and provides support through their team during your mailings. Their support is geared toward print and mail across the broad mix of industries they serve. SendJim’s is built specifically for home service businesses, with a named contact who understands your goals.
Best Postcards offers mailing list services where their team helps you build a list using basic demographic and geographic filters, useful, but it’s a list-building service, not a productized predictive model.
SendJim’s AI Lookalike Lists identify the roughly 3% of homeowners in a given area most likely to buy your service, based on 250+ demographic, property, behavioral, and psychographic signals tuned to your specific service vertical. It’s a clickable feature inside your dashboard, and it tells the rest of the platform who to follow up with across mail, SMS, and voicemail.
SendJim does the direct mail marketing as well as anyone: postcards, handwritten cards, letters, EDDM, and hyper-targeted Radius Bomb neighbor mailings, and then it automates everything around it. SMS broadcasts, ringless voicemail, gifts, and review automation, all running natively from one dashboard and triggered automatically off your CRM. So a single completed job in Jobber or Housecall Pro fires a full multi-channel follow-up sequence: neighbors get a postcard, the customer gets a thank-you and review request, and past customers get reminded when they’re due again. You don’t lift a finger.
Best Postcards prints postcards. If your only need is print-and-mail at the cheapest possible per-piece rate, that may work. But if you want a direct mail platform that converts mail into closed jobs, SendJim is built for that.
