Our mailing specialist, Tom Kaled, attended the 2012 National Postal Forum in Orlando in April.
Here are a few of the highlights:
Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM)
You have probably seen this advertised in various media outlets. This service allows you to do a localized, saturated, carrier-route mailing without the use of a mailing list. Click here for more information.
Periodical Mail
Supplements may now be 100% advertising as long as when combined with the host publication they remain under 75% advertising.
10% of the required 51% requester/subscriber will now be able to be "Electronic Requests".
Service
There will be less USPS class specific handling plants moving forward. All remaining plants will process all classes of mail. 200 plants have closed since 2006 with another 223 this year. With that in mind, the service standards for all classes of mail will be changing. Expect additional time needed for all mail. |
