Postcards for tire shops
Catch every driver before the next set
Tires wear out on a predictable clock, but customers don't shop on yours — they buy from whoever's top of mind when the tread runs low. CardCadence mails timed reminder and seasonal postcards that bring drivers back to your bays, with a QR code to your booking page on every card.
The problem
The driver who bought four tires forgot your name
A customer buys a full set, then doesn't think about tires again for three or four years — and by the time they do, they're Googling "tire shop near me" and landing on the chain down the road. Email reminders about rotations and tread checks go straight to spam. A postcard timed to their purchase lands in the mailbox right when they're noticing the wear, and a QR code shows you exactly which drivers it pulled back in.
The play
The seasonal swap reminder
Pull the customers who bought winter or all-season tires last year, mail a postcard the week the temperature drops with your swap-and-store price, and link a QR code straight to your booking page. CardCadence prints, stamps, and mails — you just watch the appointment book fill before the first snow.
- Winter / summer swap reminders timed to the first cold or warm week
- "Time for a new set" cards mailed 3-4 years after a tire purchase
- Rotation and free tread-check reminders to keep cars in your bays
- A QR code to your booking page on every card
The honest pitch
What you actually get
CardCadence is newly launched, so no dressed-up testimonials — just the facts for your tire shop mailers.
Pay per card, from $1.19
Printing, postage, and mailing in one price. Fund a wallet, pay only for the tire shop cards you send — no subscription, no contract.
Mailed First-Class
Every card goes out at USPS First-Class rates — typically 2–5 days in transit, and the Postal Service forwards it free for 12 months if your customer has moved. There is no slower bulk tier to be quietly downgraded into.
Trackable by default
Every postcard design ships with a QR code that resolves to a link unique to each recipient, so a scan ties back to the exact card and address that earned it. Leave it in place and your tire shop mail is measurable.
Designed for tire shop
Start from one of our postcard layouts, write the copy and offer for your tire shop audience, or upload your own art. Proof it on a real postcard preview before anything mails.
Common questions
Questions about tire shop postcards
What does it cost to mail tire shop postcards?
$1.19 for a 4x6, $1.35 for a 6x9 and $1.69 for a 6x11 — and that is the whole number, not a print price with postage bolted on afterwards. There is no subscription and no contract: you fund a wallet and each card draws down from it, so a 500-piece drop is a figure you can work out before you commit to it.
Who should I mail first?
Drivers due for new tires or a seasonal swap. Start there rather than with the biggest list you can buy: a narrower drop costs less to test and tells you far more about what works. Build it from your own records or target by area, then proof the card on a real postcard preview before a single one prints.
How do I know the mail actually worked?
Every design carries a QR code that resolves to a link unique to each recipient, so a scan ties back to the exact card and the exact address that earned it — not just to "the campaign". Leave the code where it is and the spend stops being a guess.
How often should I mail the same tire shop list?
Often enough to stay in mind, not so often that you become wallpaper. One card rarely does the work on its own — the second and third are usually what get the response — so a small list mailed a few times beats a big list mailed once. Set the sequence up as waves and each one goes out on schedule without you touching it.
