DCD Marketing

What DCD Marketing does

DCD Marketing is a privately held, family-owned direct marketing agency headquartered at 73 Wortman Ave, Brooklyn, NY. Founded in the mid-1990s by two brothers and originally serving the five boroughs of New York City, the company now distributes marketing materials across major markets throughout the United States. Its core offering is supervised door-to-door distribution of flyers, door hangers, coupons, product samples, and circulars, complemented by street intercept campaigns and specialized ethnic-market targeting in Hispanic and African-American neighborhoods.

The business operates as a full-service agency rather than a technology platform: research teams identify target demographics using consumer databases, in-house graphic designers create the creative, an internal printing facility produces the materials, and field crews execute the distribution with two-way-radio-supervised verification. Supporting service lines cover marketing strategy, target market selection, market mix planning, custom printing and design, and an Internet Services product (delivered in partnership with Bolt.Digital) for websites and social media.

Revenue is generated through professional services fees on a custom quote basis with multi-year contracts. Customers range from Fortune 500 enterprises down to small and medium businesses including Mom and Pop stores. Sales is consultative and direct, with phone outreach, email, and a website contact form feeding free-consultation funnels. There is no disclosed funding, no external ownership, and no parent or subsidiary structure.
