About Us

PostcardBuilder was started in 2002 by founders Phlayne Anderson and Kurt Johnson. Both had worked together off and on for 10 years in direct mail and had wanted to start their own business. The vision was to provide small businesses with an easy and affordable way to design, print and mail postcards. Years later, the vision is now a reality. PostcardBuilder does thousands of mailings per year and is one of the fastest growing companies in Minnesota.

Mailings need to be delivered on a timely basis and present the customer's best image. We continually work on our systems to insure that our postcards are of the highest quality and mailed on time. Unlike other Internet companies, we answer our phones. Feel free to call us at 866-764-0337 to discuss your postcard project.
