What things should I consider prior to a mailing project?

There are quite a few things to consider for a mailing project. The most common are:

  • What date do you want your intended recipients to receive your message and work back from that date. This will answer many questions related to print and mail production.
  • Decide on what class of postage you would like to use.
  • Envelopes with the proper indicia (postage).
  • Letterhead - We can imprint your letter on supplied letterhead or print both at once.
  • Have variable data or merged files? We can do that too.
  • Brochures or letters- We’ll fold them and deliver them to the mailroom for stuffing and mailing.
  • Postcards can be printed and forwarded to Mail Services.
