Holiday Fact Sheets Now Available in Nine Languages

Employee Development and Diversity, in partnership with Advertising and Promotion, Retail Access Channels, Expedited Products, and International Products, has made available two new online translation fact sheets on the Postal Service's Intranet, Blue, at http://blue.usps.gov/diversitynet/multicultural/welcome.htm.

The fact sheets, which support the 2006 Holiday Campaign, focus on package services (This Holiday Season We Make it Easy to Ship Your Gifts) and retail access (This Holiday the Post Office Comes to You). The fact sheets are aligned with the overall holiday message, and are designed to engage Postal ServiceTM employees in supporting holiday revenue generation by providing a vehicle for communicating with customers in nine languages: Spanish, French, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Russian, Portuguese, Hindi, and Arabic, All can be easily downloaded, printed at local Post OfficesTM, and distributed to customers prior to, or during, transactions. Note: Fact sheets are not to be used as a direct mail piece to customers.

The fact sheets are a cost-effective means of promoting our products and services within our diverse customer base this holiday season.
