USPS Mails Letters To Eligible Summer Sale Customers

Sorry for the back-to-back USPS posts. This important snippet of postal information was in today’s DMA newsletter.

“The USPS states: Today, we mailed 3,000 letters to eligible customers announcing our plans for a Standard Mail Summer Sale. To be eligible to participate, a company must have mailed a minimum of 350,000 pieces of Standard Mail letter or flat volume between July 1 and Sept. 30, 2009. We have established thresholds by taking a company’s Standard Mail volume mailed during this period in 2009 and adding 5%.

A qualifying company exceeding their threshold volume between July 1 through Sept. 30, 2010, will be eligible for a 30% rebate on postage spent on Standard Mail volume that exceeds the agreed upon threshold.

To receive the full benefit of the program, volumes mailed cannot be shifted from June 2010 or October 2010 into the sale period. The letters we mailed have additional instructions on how to apply. We expect the Postal Regulatory Commission’s (PRC) review to be finished by mid-April. Applications must be completed by May 28, 2010.”
