PUBLICITY KIT

usps.com week — March 27–31, 2006

Stand-up Talk for Business Route Carriers

The Postal Service's new winter advertising campaign focuses on My Desktop Post Office. My Desktop Post Office is an online shortcut that puts customers at the front of the line for the services they use most, such as printing, shipping labels, and calculating rates. When downloaded from usps.com/smartbusiness or from a CD, the application installs an icon on the computer's desktop and gives customers one-click access to the most frequently used usps.com services. Because we want our business customers to learn how easy it is to use usps.com, Post Offices, stations and branches around the country are sponsoring events for small businesses during usps.com week.

We'll be here in [enter location] hosting a usps.com week event. You will be given invitations to that event to deliver to all business customers on your route. Remember, do not deliver the invitation to residential customers.

We appreciate all you do to deliver the mail and to make the Postal Service the carrier of choice. When you receive these invitations, deliver them to our small business customers. This will show our customers how easy it is to use our services right from their own computers. With My Desktop Post Office, customers can do just about everything at the Post Office online at usps.com.

Thank you.
