What you can do Change the print font Re examine forms for unnecessary print Group documents into one envelope instead of two separate mailings Switch from single sided printing to double sided Maximize each oz. Add a marketing piece or two if you have room to spare in an envelope

What you can do Use post cards, instead of letters, to send a reminder, thank you or save the date Fold forms into a #10 envelope instead of using an 8 ½ x 11 flat envelope Update your mailing list to avoid returns and delays

Example 5,000 piece mailing at First Class Rate: 2oz flat: 5,000 x.97 = $4,850 2oz letter: 5,000 x.58 = $2,900

FOREVER STAMP Intended to reduce the inconvenience to acquire new-rate postage or “make up” stamps Will initially be sold at the new First Class Mail single-piece 1-ounce letter rate =.41 Can be used for International mail but the value is still.41 – additional postage required On sale April 12 at the new rate of.41
