This is the heart of Real Ink Letters: every letter is genuinely written with real handwriting. A machine guides the pen – but nothing is printed, photocopied, or mass-produced. Each letter is one of a kind.
Episode video coming soon – the written guide below has everything you need in the meantime.
What you’ll learn
- Why a genuinely written letter beats printed direct mail
- How our handwriting machine writes
- What happens between your order and the mailbox
- Standard vs Priority turnaround, honestly explained
Step 1 – Your order enters the writing queue
Standard letters are written and posted first-class within 3-4 business days, free. Priority letters are written and posted the next business day for a 20% surcharge on the writing.
Step 2 – Our handwriting machine writes your letter
Real handwriting on high-end stationery, one letter at a time. Because each letter is physically written, no two are identical.
Step 3 – The envelope is addressed by hand
In the writing style you chose – no address labels, no window envelopes, nothing that says junk mail before it is even opened.
Step 4 – A real first-class stamp
Issued by the post office, at the current first-class rate. A handwritten envelope with a real stamp is part of why our letters enjoy a 98% open rate.
Step 5 – Sealed and mailed
Your letter is sealed and posted first-class, the same day it is written.
