Windows for a House:
According to Home Advisor, the national average cost to replace windows ranges from $467 to $1,333, with an average cost of $730, including materials and labor. Various factors such as the type of window, installation company chosen, glass type, home age, materials, labor costs, and more will affect the total cost of window replacements. As you count the windows in your home or office, you may find yourself seeing dollar signs adding up. Instead of using cash, consider utilizing your trade!

Direct Mailers:
Direct mail marketing offers a cost-effective solution with higher response rates and return on investment compared to online advertising. However, the cost of a direct mail campaign depends on various factors including:

• Design costs
• Mailing list expenses
• Printing costs
• Postage fees
• Additional factors like personalization and advanced targeting

Due to these factors, the cost of a direct mail campaign can range from $4 to $4,000. To find the best options that fit your goals and budget, it's crucial to explore your options and consult with one of our Media Specialists.
