Direct Marketing Companies - The 2009 List

Economic hardships have changed the direct marketing industry. Many companies who used to thrive in this sector simply could not survive the economic downturn, being forced to shut down instead. So we thought it was about time to make an updated list of direct marketing companies in the U.S. that are still open for business.

The following list includes companies that provide general direct marketing services. The actual services offered will vary from one company to another. We have provided website addresses for each company so you can do your own research. We've also included a short summary of the primary services they offer. This list is presented in alphabetical order. We are not endorsing any of the direct marketing companies on this list, but are merely presenting them for your consideration.
