Everything Included in Your 4" x 6" Custom Notepad
Perfectly Practical, Endlessly Versatile
- This popular 4" x 6" size strikes the ideal balance: compact enough to fit in a purse, mailer, or desk drawer, yet spacious enough for lists, reminders, or quick notes. Whether you're looking for a thoughtful client gift, a branded handout at events, or a useful addition to your office supplies, these notepads deliver daily utility that recipients truly appreciate.
Vivid Full-Color Printing, Premium Materials
- Every notepad is printed in vibrant full color (CMYK) on bright white text stock. Choose from 50 lb. standard, 60 lb. premium, or 70 lb. luxury weight paper — all significantly heavier than the thin 40 lb. stock used by many discount printers. Each pad includes an 18 pt. chipboard backer for a solid, professional writing surface. Choose between 25 or 50 sheets per pad to match your needs and budget.
Edge-to-Edge Customization & Expert Support
- We offer optional 1/8" bleed for true edge-to-edge design. Our in-house design team provides free layout assistance — a real person reviews your artwork, not just an automated tool. As our team often says, "What our clients love about us is the ability to customize pretty much everything, and of course, we deliver fast."
Exclusive Options You Won't Find Everywhere
- Backside Printing — Print on both sides of the sheet for twice the messaging real estate. Available on 60 lb. stock and above.
- Custom Printed Top Sheet — Add a unique cover sheet different from the rest of the pad. Perfect for a personalized welcome message or special campaign.
- Magnetic Backer — Add a magnet to the back of your notepad so it lives on your client's refrigerator or filing cabinet, keeping your brand visible every day.
- Printed Backer — Customize the chipboard backer with your logo or messaging for a fully branded, professional presentation.
- Door Hanger Bags — Package your notepads in poly door hanger bags for easy neighborhood distribution campaigns.
- Direct Mail — Skip the fulfillment headache entirely. We can print and mail your 4" x 6" notepads directly to your prospect or client list.
