Streamlining the Process for Postage Statements

In an ongoing effort to streamline and improve the submission of postage statements, we encourage customers to save time and money by using an electronic postage statement every time they present a mailing.

Beginning in March, 2010, we request that mailings being presented at acceptance use the PostalOne! system to:

  • submit electronic postage statements
  • obtain receipts in lieu of the currently-used round stamp
  • view their mailing activities
  • retrieve processed postage statements

Acceptance at non-PostalOne! sites will continue to process hard-copy postage statements as they do today, completing the USPS section of the form and round-stamping the statement.

We’ll use the DMM Advisory to keep you informed.

The Domestic Mail Manual (DMM) is available on Postal Explorer (pe.usps.com).

SEO Can’t Fix Stupid

Gotta love the article in today’s Clickz e-newsletter. If you have ever been stuck in the middle of these type of arguments between your customer, a developer, the designer and their agency you can appreciate this article.

The divisiveness of the SEO ndustry has reared its tenacious, albeit link-baiting head again in recent weeks. Apparently as contentious as politics and religion, SEO tactics should not be discussed in polite company; especially the company you keep includes Web designers, Internet technologists, and failed spammers.

Fulfillment House – Thought of the Day

Our task is to strike a balance,

to find a middle way,

to learn not to overstretch ourselves

with extraneous activities and preoccupations, but to simplify our lives more and more.

The key to finding a happy balance in modern lives is simplicity.

Wow what a challenge especially in today’s work atmosphere. Customers are stressed, employees are stressed and stretched. Our job is not to add to the stress but help everybody find that middle of the road of balance and simplicity. Easy to say, harder to do but actually when achieved makes everything so much easier to deal with.

Dot Fulfillment to host Orange County Ad Federation meeting at our location on the 16th of September. Meeting topic will be “How Do I Create & Market My Personal Brand?” luncheon series will feature Colleen Wainwright.

How Do I Create & Market My Personal Brand?

As advertisers, we all know what branding is (and hopefully, how to do it). However, many times we are better at advertising for our clients or companies than for ourselves. This first part of a two-part luncheon series will feature Colleen Wainwright. Colleen is a writer-speaker-illuminator who started calling herself “the communicatrix” when she hit three hyphens.

She spent 10 years as an award-winning TV copywriter crafting ads for brands like Wheaties®, Gatorade® and Jell-O®, and another 10 acting in them for cash money. Since deciding she’d blow her brains out if she had to sit through one more meeting about which way the bears danced around the cereal box, Colleen spends her time teaching other creative souls how to talk about what they do in a way that wins them attention, work and satisfaction.

In between speaking to groups like the Cornell Entrepreneur Network, the Seattle Design Center, and Casting Networks, Inc., she consults one-on-one with solopreneurs about their online marketing presence and creates content for an alarmingly large number of online outlets.

To learn more about Colleen and her insights, visit: http://www.communicatrix.com/about-bio-long.
