Kingston's Finest

Direct Mail

Co-op direct mail across Eastern Ontario.

The Finest Magazine, four-fold co-op mailers, postcards, and Canada Post Personalized Mail. One partner. Over 4,000,000 pieces mailed every year.

Why direct mail still works in 2026.

Inboxes are noisier than ever. Mailboxes aren't. A well-targeted piece arrives with no algorithm in the way, no spam filter, no scroll past. It gets touched, glanced at, and — often — saved to the fridge.

For local businesses with a defined service area, direct mail still produces some of the best cost-per-acquisition numbers in the marketing mix.

What we deliver.

The Finest Magazine (Co-op Direct Mail)

Our owned, glossy regional magazine — direct-to-mailbox across Kingston, Brockville, and Quinte. Postage is shared across all advertisers in the issue, making it the most cost-effective premium channel in the region.

Four-Fold Co-op Mailers

Multi-panel folded mailers that bundle multiple advertisers into a single Canada Post drop. Shared-postage economics, solo-mailer visibility on every panel.

Canada Post Neighbourhood Mail

Unaddressed mail to every household on the postal walks you choose. The lowest cost per piece for blanket coverage of a neighbourhood, town, or postal code.

Canada Post Personalized Mail

Addressed mail with name personalization and variable copy. Higher production cost but the highest response rates — especially for service businesses and B2B.

The Finest Magazine.

A glossy regional magazine we publish, print, and distribute ourselves — three editions covering Eastern Ontario's primary markets. True co-op direct mail: every advertiser shares the postage.
