The Yardie is an affordable, high-impact way to engage incoming students, alumni, and supporters—right at home. Fully customizable and easy to implement, it includes print, data hygiene, and individual fulfillment (postage separate), and is more cost-effective to produce and ship than traditional coroplast yard signs, making it perfect for Acceptance Campaigns, Commencement, Donor Recognition, and more. Let their front yard become your next bold marketing moment, without breaking the budget.

Budget Friendly

From production to shipping and implementation, The Yardie delivers big impact at a fraction of the cost of traditional yard sign programs. It’s one of the most budget-friendly tools available for personalized outreach.

Fully Customizable

Tailor the design and to your campaign, brand, or message. Whether it’s welcoming new students, celebrating graduates, thanking donors, or driving event participation, The Yardie adapts to your goal.

Memorable & Shareable

The Yardie isn't just seen, they’re photographed, shared, and proudly displayed. That makes The Yardie a high-visibility touchpoint that keeps working long after delivery.

    Same day print and mail. Sounds crazy, right? It is, but also true. Our Programmatic Mail enables Purdue University Global to do just that.

    Generate excitement and increase brand exposure like South Dakota State University by providing viral-ready items like Dorm Flags in your Acceptance Packages.

    Streamlining the Financial Aid process by offering personalized data and information for each student like Lamar University can increase Yield.

    Sending a deluxe Deposit: Thank You Kit Like Brooklyn College will show your students how thankful you are that they are pursuing their future with you.

    Letters can get stale pretty quickly. Use our exclusive Bound Banner like Ohio University to create a lasting reminder and increase local brand exposure.

    Include Coppin State logo and copy: Sending our Orientation Package Like Coppin State University did helps boost student participation and get them—and their families—ready for their next chapter.

    ...and what about

    Retention, Student Engagement, Commencement, Alumni, Athletic Development, Tradeshow and Promotional Product Marketing?

    Each of your accepted students will receive a Gift Certificate in their Acceptance Packages allowing them to redeem a commitment gift from your branded Commitment Predictor website. Don’t want to deal with the logistics of a separate gift certificate? No problem! We can incorporate it into any piece of collateral for shipping efficiency

    Step 2:

    Select, Submit, Ship

    Students love to be brand advocates for the school they worked so hard to get in. They will access your Commitment Predictor website and be given free merch for committing. Gain insight through questions in the redemption process like how their enrollment experience was, what they are still in need of, or what their biggest worries are for the next chapter of their lives.

    Step 3:

    Reporting and Follow Up

    You will receive automated reports on every accepted student, whether they redeemed their commitment merch or not, and what their responses are to your questions. Follow up with students who completed to keep them moving forward with their next steps, or reach out to students who haven’t responded to see why and help them to keep moving forward with your school.

    And what’s best of all?

    We do everything for you!

    From the programming of your Commitment Predictor website, to the design and fulfillment of your Acceptance Packages, and even the follow up communications, we can help you with everything!
