LOS ANGELES — The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) is helping small businesses grow. Local retail stores and neighborhood businesses can find out how by attending one of these free USPS “Grow Your Business” events in May.
There is a new way for businesses to contact local customers with marketing messages quickly, easily, and cost-effectively. Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) Retail offers a reach unparalleled by any other method to build traffic and find new customers. Now the community butcher, baker and pizza pie maker can reach every mailbox in a nearby neighborhood with EDDM Retail using a simplified address of “Local Postal Customer.”
Customers can also learn about the enhancements made to Priority Mail ― like free merchandise insurance, improved tracking and day-specific delivery. It’s the fast, easy and cost-effective way for businesses to ship.
Interested businesses can find out more by joining the Postal Service at one of these free Grow Your Business seminars:
