Dear Editor,
Everyday over 800,000 people visit the U.S. Postal
Service's Web site, www.usps.com - 274 million people in
2005. The Postal Service feels that this is a crystal clear indication that more of you are skipping the trip to your local
Post Office and going online!
Today, the Postal Service has an entire suite of "Quick,
Easy, Convenient" online services to assist you and small
businesses alike, making trips to the local Post Office unnecessary since many transactions can now occur electronically from the convenience of either your or
office.
Finding information, conducting transactions and using
postal services of all kinds has never been easier or more
convenient. You can create shipping labels and pay for
postage; find a ZIP Code; calculate postage; locate a Post
Office; request Carrier Pickup service; track and confirm
mail delivery; hold mail; change your address; find addressing information; buy stamps; design and personalize greeting cards; order shipping supplies; create newsletters; and
more - all from your computer!
You can now ship packages from your or office using Click-N-Ship service to print the mailing label with postage and Carrier Pickup service to inform your local Post
Office that you will have a package waiting for them the
next delivery day. We're at your and business everyday anyway, and we're happy to pick up your packages on
the way.
It's all about access. The Postal Service provides alternatives for you to purchase stamps at more than 27,800
vending machines; 25,000 commercial retail outlets such
as grocery stores, drug stores and gift stores; 19,000 banking and credit union automated teller machines; and 2,500
automated postal centers located across the country. You
don't have to go to the Post Office to buy stamps anymore - you can buy them when you're grocery shopping
or when you get a prescription filled.
Don't misunderstand. If you want to come to the Post
Office and conduct your postal business in person, we will
be more than happy to help you. This is about you, plain
and simple. We want to be easily accessible and easy to do
business with - whether it's from your , from the office or at our office.
Sincerely,
NAME
Postmaster
