# Slate Print Overview

Print and mail marketing is a familiar tactic for reaching your constituents, but it's also an expensive and labor-intensive endeavor that can take up a lot of time. How do you keep your print mailings organized? How do you track what has been sent out, who it was sent to, and the responses received?

Slate Print automates all these processes, allowing you to spend less time on the logistical nightmare of printing and mailing—and more time focusing on the important stuff, like crafting compelling content for your message.

- Extensive list of print options beyond a typical postcard or letter campaign.
- Automate print mailings as part of ongoing campaigns.
- Hyper-personalize print pieces with record data.
- Track the physical mailings you send, allowing you to track the success of your promotions.
- Query on paper mailing.

We recommend reviewing the [Slate Print Webinar](/v1/docs/slate-print). This webinar was co-hosted by Kathleen Cross, the Executive Vice President at [MitteraEDU](https://mittera.com/), the company that fulfills Slate Print pieces. The webinar provides a helpful explanation of the print process and examples of materials and customization.
