The Us Postal service has a program called Every Door Direct Mail that lets you pinpoint the neighborhood you want to hit. You can pick any carrier route. They have a map that shows you what streets are covered my the Carrier. Each piece cost 14.2 cants They have to be a certain size, at least 11 1/8" long or 6 1/2" high or 1/4" thick. In my area each Carrier delivers to 600 to 700 homes. I plan on using this soon.

Great program, I have some cards coming from Keith that I am going to do with this. I think this is actually an old program the USPO just brought back.

Sounds like a great way to target certain neighborhoods at a reasonable cost.

Good. I'm going to send out another 5000 to the same area as soon as my designer changes up my card. I've got 5,000 sitting here at the house that Im going to fire out when we get back from vacation.
Going to order 20,000 of the new card when its done. I'll start firing those out late Sept, first of Oct.

That is 14.2 cents for postage. You have to watch the size for that price. They have to be between 11 1/2 " and 15" long OR 6 1/8" and 12" high. These are a little odd sizes.

For me its infield sales along with call center. Post cards are definitely a help, in commercial once they know you and have a way to contact when they need you thats good news.
Theme postcards work best in commercial Market, funny how my Christmas card can often get me more business than a special card.

It seems from the responses I have been getting, this forum and group of guys is very happy to have resourceful companies plugged. And let me know if I am wrong. But...
Check out http://www.uvcards.com I used to be a graphic designer/web developer(still do it on the side) and this company is amazingly true to color values. They are very quick with shipping, and the quality is great. You can find 5k postcards on there for around $90.
Maybe that end will help.
