Be part of the Counter Culture
Retail Standardization is more than just a pretty place. It's a process to
make sure Post OfficeTM customers' retail experience is consistent and
reliable. Each customer stepping into a lobby presents an opportunity to
increase revenue and improve customer satisfaction. A new electronic
newsletter from the Retail Standardization team at Headquarters, Counter
Culture, features success stories, tips, and other information to help Post
Offices provide the best possible retail experience for their customers.

Business solutions on display
How do you get more brochures for a Business Solutions Display (BSD)?
It depends on the type of brochure you need: promotional brochures are
shipped with point-of-purchase (POP) kits. If you want continuity
brochures, look for ordering directions in the back of the Signage
Instruction Guide included with your POP kit.
Display tip: To assure forms and brochures don't fall through the bottoms
of pockets, pull the pocket out, insert the two notches into the two
openings, and replace the pocket in the BSD display.
If you did not receive BSD brochures and a display board in your POP kit,
you may no longer be a BSD site. BSD sites were realigned during the
Summer/Fall 2004 drive. Former BSD sites can use any remaining
displays for brochures and other miscellaneous Postal ServiceTM forms,
but the "Business Solutions" red header must be removed from the
displays.
ReadyPost supplier orders
You must submit ReadyPost® orders through eBuy or by phone if your office is
not on the Point of Sale Replenishment (POSR) system. Effective January 1,
the supplier will no longer accept faxed and mailed orders. All offices with
eBuy must place their ReadyPost orders using eBuy. Offices without eBuy
may order by phone - 800-711-0428, option 7. Offices with POSR receive
automatically generated orders based on daily sales. By the end of FY 2006,
11,000 offices should be on POSR.
New product checklists, shipped to Post Offices last November, have replaced
paper order forms. Use these checklists to manage inventory.
