We plan, produce and personalise direct mail, from postcards and letters to dimensional mailers and catalogues. We also handle the stages that follow, including envelope fulfilment, inserting and enclosing, polywrapping, and hand fulfilment for items that need assembling or inserting by hand.
We choose the right postal route for your budget and deadline, and manage the postage for you. Options include Royal Mail and Downstream Access (DSA) services, advertising mail, economy mail, sorted and unsorted mail, door-to-door delivery, and mailing within the UK and internationally.
Our mail fulfilment services go beyond the mailing itself. They cover marketing fulfilment, e-commerce and mail order fulfilment, stock management and delivery, backed by a van fleet and nationwide coverage. You see what is happening throughout, with clear reporting through our client-friendly MIS and KPI transparency.
As a single point of contact, we handle your complete mailing and fulfilment needs from data sourcing to the doormat. You don't have to juggle multiple suppliers or worry about coordination delays.
One of the most common problems we solve for clients is address data formatting. Most businesses don't structure their mailing lists correctly, which either delays your project or costs you money in wasted postage. We handle the data formatting and cleansing for you, so your campaign runs on schedule and you avoid the back-and-forth delays that happen when data needs correcting mid-project.
We also manage the entire fulfilment workflow. Direct mail sent from us to your recipients is usually cheaper than you sending it yourself. If returns come back to us, we provide a datasheet showing which addresses bounced, so you can update your database and save money on your next campaign.
Your dedicated account manager is on hand throughout, so queries are heard and nothing gets missed. Our team will work with you from concept through to delivery.
Turnaround times depend on the complexity of the project, but we operate with daily collections from Royal Mail and other major carriers. For standard machine-enclosed mailings, we often achieve 24 to 48-hour turnarounds from the moment your data and print materials are finalised. Your dedicated Account Director will provide a specific timeline for your campaign to ensure you hit your drop dates.
As a high-volume mailing house, Gemini Print Solutions has access to significant wholesale postage discounts. We use Mailmark technology and professional data sorting to ensure your campaign qualifies for the lowest possible postage rates. By optimising the weight, size, and data quality of your mailings, we can often save businesses between 10% and 30% on their standard postage costs.
Data personalisation (Variable Data Printing) allows you to tailor the text, images, and offers in your mailer to the specific recipient. This "Art for Business" approach significantly increases engagement and ROI compared to generic mailings. Personalised direct mail feels more relevant to the customer, leading to higher response rates and a more professional brand image.
Yes. Data management is a core part of our service. We regularly receive mailing lists that look clean at first glance but have structural problems such as; postcodes bundled with counties, cities in the wrong field, or inconsistent formatting. These issues don't just create compliance headaches; they cost you money in postage and delay your project while we correct them back-and-forth with you. We take your raw data and restructure it properly: formatting postcodes, counties, and cities into the correct fields, removing duplicates, checking against the Mail Preference Service (MPS), and optimising it for Royal Mail Mailmark rates. This means your data is not just compliant with GDPR, but also cost-effective and ready to go out on schedule without delays.
