Tallahassee Gems is a premium, heritage-inspired postcard that highlights a select group of local businesses on each mailing. Instead of cluttered coupon packs or generic ads, we create a beautifully designed, fridge-worthy piece featuring only one business per specialty.
Our goal is simple: connect Tallahassee residents with the independent shops, restaurants, and services that truly make this city feel like home.

Step 2 – We refine your message and design
Send us your logo, key offer, and contact details. We help polish your copy and place your brand into our premium, heritage-inspired layout so your ad feels clean, elevated, and easy to read.

Every edition of Tallahassee Gems features a custom watercolor scene of a beloved Tallahassee landmark paired with a structured grid of ad spots.
Each business receives a dedicated space with clear branding, a concise message, and easy-to-find contact details.

To keep each postcard focused and premium, we only feature one business per category in every edition. Once a category is reserved for that mailing, it’s no longer available to competitors.

Our company ethos
Tallahassee Gems exists to honor and elevate the independent businesses that give Tallahassee its character. We believe local companies deserve marketing that feels as premium and thoughtful as the service they provide, and that residents are more likely to support businesses presented with care, authenticity, and respect for our city’s history.

Company Ethos
Pillars of the Ethos
Local First – We focus on Tallahassee neighborhoods and the people who live and work here. Every decision is grounded in what serves local businesses and local residents best.
Curated, Not Crowded – One business per type. We value fit and quality over volume so that being featured on Tallahassee Gems actually means something.
Premium, Yet Approachable – Heritage-inspired design, clear messaging, and a warm, human tone. We avoid gimmicks, clutter, and “cheap coupon” energy.
Mutual Benefit – Every postcard should be a win for three groups: the featured businesses, the residents who receive it, and the broader Tallahassee community.
Long-Term Reputation Over Short-Term Hype – We aim to help businesses become true Tallahassee staples, not just run one-off promotions. Consistency, trust, and recognizability matter more than quick hits.
