What is the difference between First Class and Standard postage? |
| |
Click Here For The Answer
|
With First Class you pay the postal rate quoted for letters. The advantage is that your postcards are delivered more quickly and, if your customer or client has moved, your cards are returned with the correct forwarding address. Standard First Class is the postal rate quoted for letters mailed at the same time but in numbers greater than 200 per mailing. The disadvantages is that delivery can take up to 14 days.

I do not have a mailing list. Can you help? |
| |
Click Here For The Answer
|
Yes, we can provide you a list for a small fee. The radius search works best for Just Listed/Just Sold mailings. However, we suggest strongly that you build your own list, even if you start with a slim list. Add to it daily and grow your list. People deal with people they know, like and trust...not from strangers.
