How The La Mesa Spotlight works
Four steps, one flat price, zero production headaches. You approve an ad. We do everything from design to the post office.
Claim your industry slot
Tell us your business and industry. If your category is still open on the next card, it is yours. One business per industry, first come first served.
We design your ad for free
Send a logo, an offer, and your contact info. Our team designs your full-color ad space and sends you a proof. Unlimited revisions until you approve it.
We print and mail everything
We handle printing, postage paperwork, EDDM routing and the drop at the post office. Your ad lands in roughly 5,000 high-income La Mesa mailboxes.
New customers walk in
Scans turn into calls, bookings and walk-ins from neighbors minutes away. Your QR report shows exactly how many people your slot sent you, so you can watch the card pay for itself and come back next month.
A clean, readable ad, not a coupon buried in clutter
Each of the 16 slots gets generous space for your logo, one strong offer, your contact details and a unique QR code. Our designers build it so it reads from across the kitchen counter.
- • Professional design included, with unlimited revisions before you approve
- • Full color, both sides, heavy gloss 9x12 stock
- • Your own QR code, pointed anywhere you like
- • Change your offer every month at no extra cost
