Goldsboro — The United States Postal Service invites small businesses to attend a “Grow Your Business Day” workshop that will help entrepreneurs and proprietors to promote their businesses using direct mail, without the cost of mailing lists or permits. The workshop will be held on Tuesday, February 25, 2014, 11 am at Wayne County Public Library, 1001 E. Ash Street, Goldsboro.
Seating is limited so those interested in attending are encouraged to register by sending an email to GYBDS_Greensboro@usps.gov, or by contacting George Humphreys, USPS Business Development Specialist at george.humphreys@usps.gov. Mr. Humphreys can also be reached at (252) 236-3835.
The new Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) service is a U.S. Postal Service initiative to make growing business with the mail more efficient and affordable. In this one-hour presentation Postal experts will show how easy it is to select a campaign message, target an audience and prepare EDDM mailings. Information will be provided on how to do it yourself or using mailing house vendors.
