About
Smartmail Marketing is Canada Post's direct-mail marketing service for organizations that want to reach existing or prospective customers by postal delivery. Campaigns can use Neighbourhood Mail, Personalized Mail or Postal Code Targeting, with audience selection using geographic, demographic and address data. Businesses may plan campaigns through Canada Post's online targeting and campaign tools, or work with Canada Post experts and independent Smartmail Marketing partners for audience development, creative design, printing, mail preparation and delivery. The service supports standalone mailings and campaigns coordinated with digital channels, including promotional pieces such as postcards, letters, brochures and flyers. Campaign scope, targeting, formats and postage depend on the sender's objectives and selected mail product. It is a postal and marketing service rather than one standalone software application.
