SAMPLE LETTER TO PERIODICALS MAILER [INSERT DATE] [INSERT NAME] [INSERT TITLE] [INSERT ORGANIZATION] [INSERT ADDRESS] [INSERT CITY, STATE, ZIP+4] Dear Periodicals Mailer: As a valued customer, we want to keep you informed about the upcoming changes to Periodicals mail. On July 15, we’ll implement new prices, fees, and mailing standards. For Outside-County Periodicals, the new prices are based on pieces and pounds, and on bundles and containers. The new piece rates vary based on machinability, barcoding, and presort level. Bundle and container rates vary based on presort level and point of entry. For In-County Periodicals, the rate design is still based on pieces and pounds, as it is today. Attached is a copy of the new Periodicals rates, a new PS Form 3541 (Periodicals Postage Statement), and a fact sheet. You must use the new postage statement beginning July 15. This new statement, along with additional information such as frequently asked questions, is available at www.usps.com/ratecase. If you have any questions or need help completing the new postage statement, please give me a call, [INSERT NAME], [INSERT TITLE] at [INSERT PHONE NUMBER], between the hours of [INSERT TIME] and [INSERT TIME], Monday through Friday. Sincerely, [SIGN] [INSERT NAME] [INSERT TITLE] U.S. Postal Service [INSERT CITY, STATE, ZIP+4]
