Three Decades of Putting Your Message in the Right Hands

Direct to Door Marketing was founded in 1995 with a simple but powerful idea: businesses deserve a reliable, accountable way to reach customers directly at their homes. What started as a small door hanger distribution operation in Southern California quickly grew as word spread about our commitment to quality and transparency.

Over the past three decades, we’ve grown into America’s largest door hanger and flyer distribution company, with a network of 16,726+ professional distributors covering 99% of all U.S. zip codes. We’ve delivered over 500 million marketing pieces for businesses of every size — from neighborhood pizza shops to Fortune 500 brands like Uber, AT&T, and Chick-fil-A.

What sets us apart isn’t just our scale. It’s the way we’ve invested in technology to bring real accountability to an industry that was historically impossible to verify. Our proprietary AI Management Platform with photo-verified proof of delivery means you see exactly where every piece goes — no guessing, no hoping, just proof.

Randy Etheridge — Founder & CEO, Direct to Door Marketing

Randy Etheridge founded Direct to Door Marketing in 1995 with a clear mission: bring accountability and professionalism to the door-to-door distribution industry. With over 30 years at the helm, Randy has built DTD from a regional startup into the nation’s most trusted distribution company.

Under Randy’s leadership, Direct to Door pioneered the use of AI-powered management and photo-verified proof of delivery — innovations that transformed an industry where “trust us, we delivered” was the standard. Today, every DTD campaign comes with real-time tracking and photographic evidence of every placement.

“I started this company because I believed businesses deserved better. They deserved to know — not guess — that their marketing was actually reaching the right doors. Thirty years later, that’s still what drives everything we do.”

Randy’s vision has attracted clients from local small businesses to national brands, all drawn by DTD’s unique combination of nationwide scale and personal accountability.
