n The Postal Service is increasing its efforts to connect with smaller companies and local merchants to alert them to offerings that make it easier and less expensive to do business with us.
n The Postal Service is holding GYBD events to show small businesses how to use Postal Service products and services to grow their businesses.
n GYBD events are being held now through summer 2012 at Post Offices throughout the country.
n In the past, GYBD have been highly successful for Post Offices in selling Advertising Mail and Premium Postcards and in helping eBay shippers discover the benefits of shipping with the U.S. Postal Service.
n Postmasters and other Postal Service employees will provide hands-on instruction in the use of an online interactive tool, https://smp.usps.gov, which helps mailers research “residences” or “residences and businesses” in the neighborhoods near their businesses.
n Businesses can see if there are GYBD events scheduled in their areas by visiting www.usps.com/everydoordirectmail.
n Besides EDDM, GYBD events are being planned for other topics.
