What is Inked?

Inked is a direct-mail outreach platform that lets PLACE partners send handwritten note cards at scale. It combines the personal feel of handwriting with automation and campaign management, so outreach stays personal without being done by hand one card at a time.

Inked includes:

• Real handwriting. Cards are written by robots holding real pens that mimic human handwriting, with natural variation so each card looks unique.
• An end-to-end process. Printing, writing, stamping, sealing, and mailing all happen in one platform, typically within one business day.
• Custom branding. Choose from hundreds of card designs or upload your own, and add personalized messages or QR codes.
• Campaign tools and reporting. Integrations and a campaign builder scale outreach, and reporting tracks delivery and engagement so campaigns can be refined over time.

How do individual agents get access to Inked?

Inked access is set up by your team's Operator or Admin, at the team level. There is no individual agent signup for Inked, and there is no separate list of per-agent details to submit to enable access.

• If you are an agent: contact your team's Operator or Admin. They set up and manage Inked access for the team. Do not create your own individual Inked account.
• If you are the Operator or Admin: email hello@inked.com to get your team's Inked account set up. See the next section for the full setup process.

Because Inked is set up for the whole team at once, agents do not need to provide individual information to get access. Once the Operator or Admin has the team account in place, they manage who uses it.

How does an Operator or Admin set up Inked for the team?

If you are the Operator or Admin for a PLACE team and your team does not have Inked yet, email hello@inked.com to get your team's account created. That is the first step, and Inked handles onboarding from there.

Then complete setup at inked.com:

1. Provide your business details and contact information.
2. Choose a plan or purchase send credits (either a subscription or one-time credit bundles).
3. Design the campaign using an Inked template or by uploading your own design and branding.
4. Add personalization fields such as recipient name, a custom message, or a QR code.
5. Upload the recipient list and map the data fields to the personalization placeholders.
6. Launch the campaign and monitor cards as they are written, mailed, and delivered.
7. Use the reporting dashboards to measure response and refine future campaigns.

For onboarding questions at any point in this process, contact Inked directly at hello@inked.com.

How much does Inked cost for PLACE partners?

PLACE partners receive exclusive at-cost pricing of $1.75 per card for Inked. That price is all-inclusive and covers printing, handwriting, postage, and delivery, so there is no separate charge for stamps or fulfillment.

Teams pay through either a subscription or one-time send-credit bundles, chosen during account setup. For a current quote or questions about credits and billing, contact your Operator or Admin, or email hello@inked.com.

How can Inked help me generate more business?

PLACE partners use Inked handwritten note cards to get attention that email and text no longer reliably earn:

• Cut through digital clutter. A handwritten note stands out among emails and texts. It feels personal and genuine, so it is far more likely to be opened, remembered, and acted on.
• Boost response and conversion rates. Direct mail is now rare, which increases attention and helps turn more contacts into appointments and clients.
• Build stronger relationships. Use Inked to thank clients, celebrate milestones, or follow up after closings and events.
• Track and optimize. Inked reporting shows which messages perform best so you can repeat what works.
• Encourage referrals. Clients who receive personalized outreach are more likely to refer others, which expands your sphere organically.

Who do I contact for Inked support?

• Onboarding questions or account assistance: email Inked directly at hello@inked.com.
• Setting up Inked access for a team: the Operator or Admin should email hello@inked.com.
• PLACE-related setup or integration questions: reach out to your Operator or Admin first.
