Sticking around

The option for customers to place repositionable notes (RPNs) — those 3 x 3 inch removable paper notes placed on the outside of commercial First-Class Mail, Standard Mail and periodical mail — is now permanently available for use on cards, letters and flats.

The notes offer customers a great way to highlight important messages such as Web addresses, phone num­bers and upcoming sales and events. These notes add valuable “real estate” to the outside of a mailpiece and are priced right. RPNs cost half a cent for First-Class Mail and one-and-a-half cents for Standard Mail and periodicals.

Since their introduction a few years ago, RPNs have raised $4.3 million in revenue for USPS.
