Save Money & Boost Efforts with Non-Profits
Mailers have been shown to be an important and effective marketing tool for many years. That is the main reason that businesses of all types and sizes continue to use direct mail as a means of communicating with their customers and clients. While direct mailers can seem like an expensive endeavor, some companies and organizations can lower the cost of direct mailers by utilizing special discounts offered by the United States Postal Service. Non-profit organizations are offered special mailing rates by USPS.
How can I save money on postage?
A non-profit postage indicia can be utilized for mailings with a minimum of 200 pieces.
PRE-PRINTED INDICIA
You can have indicia printed on envelopes at the same time as the return address printing or you can wait to have it printed when the mail house adds the mailing addresses. Pre-printed indicia is recommended for optimal savings on bulk mail.
METERED INDICIA
As metered indicia requires much more time than pre-printed indicia but doesn't offer the personal touch of stamps, it isn't used as frequently as the other two bulk non-profit options. Metered indicia can also carry extra costs and many find it less visually appealing that other postage methods.
PRESORT NONPROFIT RATE STAMPS
Presort non-profit rate USPS stamps come in several style options and offer a personal touch at discount rates. The stamps do come with an application service charge, though this is typically minimal.
