In a county as tight-knit as ours, a real postcard in the mailbox still gets read. Direct mail advertising puts your Bastrop County, Texas business in front of local households the same week they are deciding where to eat, who to call for a repair, and where to shop. No algorithm to fight, no scrolling past, just your offer in their hands.

Why direct mail still works in Bastrop County, Texas

Digital ads are easy to scroll past and easy to block. A large, well-designed postcard is not. It lands on the kitchen counter, gets seen by everyone in the house, and sticks around for days. In a growing but still rural county where plenty of residents are not glued to social media, direct mail reaches people that online ads never touch, and it arrives alongside a familiar local brand they already trust.

The Bastrop Current Community Card

Our Community Card is a large 9 by 12 inch postcard mailed to roughly 5,000 homes across Bastrop and Cedar Creek. Instead of paying thousands of dollars to design, print, and mail your own postcard, you reserve one spot on a shared card alongside a small group of other local businesses, so the cost of printing and postage is split. Spots start at $300, and every category is exclusive, which means you will never share the card with a direct competitor.

What you get

  • A trusted local name. Your offer arrives under the Bastrop Current banner, a brand your neighbors already know.
  • An affordable, shared cost. Professional direct mail starting at $300, a fraction of a solo mailing.
