Acworth, GA (PRWEB) April 29, 2014 -- Direct mail provider Mudlick Mail has signed an agreement to serve as a preferred vendor for Petland Inc., one of the nation’s largest pet store chains.

Thanks to its in-depth market research, Mudlick Mail offers the ability to target households by neighborhood, income level, and other key demographic details.
The company also offers a customer penetration report that gives clients the ability to see who their customers are and which neighborhoods they are coming from. This report, along with Mudlick Mail’s database-matching program, allows clients to better judge the effectiveness of their campaigns.
Other key value-added benefits include:
• Free graphic design services to enable a completely customized postcard program
• No contract requirements or set-up fees
• All inclusive package pricing
• A free market analysis report and demographic map
