The United States Postal Service invites small businesses to attend one of several “Grow Your Business Day” workshops that will help entrepreneurs and proprietors to promote their businesses using direct mail, without the cost of mailing lists or permits.
The new Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) service is the first in a series of United States Postal Service initiatives to make growing business with the mail more efficient and affordable. The service allows mailers to target neighborhoods with a simplified mailing process that lowers printing, preparation and mailing costs.
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.
June 8, Reno Main Post Office, 2000 Vassar ST. , 12 – 1:30
