Prepare to spend more on mailing your custom publications and direct mail. Although the USPS is planning on saving bundles through a new mail sorting system, it will go ahead with a postage increase on May 11, 2009.
USPS tells us where to put it
The United States Postal Service is investing in new technology to automate the sorting of flat-sized mail pieces (i.e., most of the magazines we produce at Wax). To accommodate this effort for efficiency, publishers have to follow a new address placement standard or pay higher postage fees.
