<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've only ordered post cards. Yes, nice thick
stock, beautiful color, way better and more professional than anything I have
gotten from a local printer for TEN times more money. While your online, if your
having trouble with their design software you can call them on the phone, they
always seem to pick up and help you out.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>the prices from this company are
unbelievable! I'm sure going to give them a try... Have you ever
had business cards from them? I'm wondering if they use a nice thick
paper stock for the color on both sides option? You can't beat the
prices! Thanks for the information! </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Terry and Patrick,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've tried the USPS and was very disapointed in
the quality. I've since found <A
href="http://www.gotprint.com">www.gotprint.com</A> and have purchased
absolutely beautiful cards, etc. for as little as 3 or 4 cents appiece for 2
sided color. I don't know how they do it. You can design everything on line.
About $40. per thousand.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Dear List:<BR><BR>Yes, you can indeed do all of your
client mailings (reminder cards, holiday newsletter) and chapter
mailings (newsletter, meeting notification postcard) online through the
postal service.<BR><BR>Create your document offline and upload it to
their website. Upload your mailing list, pay them, and wait for the
phone calls. No more labels, stamping, trips to Kinkos or the post
office. A one-sided non-fancy black and white postcard is indeed only a
little more than the 26 cent postcard postage.<BR><BR>You can be as
simple or complicated as you like. Full color? Sure. Text on both sides
of the card? You bet. Bigger postcard? Yup. 8 page newsletter? Yes.
Letter stuffed in an envelope? No problem.<BR><BR>You can even do mail
merge........but using their funky software, not through MS
Word.<BR><BR>The easiest way is to create a bunch of stock
postcards:<BR>- It's been A LONG Time since I last tuned your piano<BR>-
It's been a year since <BR>- It's been 6 months since<BR>- It's time to
tune your piano<BR>- Tune your piano this month and save ___$<BR>- In
the past we have tuned your piano in the spring/winter/fall, why don't
we get back into that program<BR>- Thank you for choosing me to service
your piano<BR>- Thank you for referring me to your friend.<BR><BR>you
get the idea<BR><BR>Send your complete client list to Excel and filter
the records to match your postcard characteristics, copy that to a new
file (i.e. Time2tuneMAY.xls) and then upload that mailing list to
the PO. Then match that list to the corresponding postcard that is saved
up there, preview it, pay them, and start answering the phone in 3
days.<BR><BR><BR>I've given this Technical in the Bay Area at a couple
of the chapters. Email me privately if you would like a copy of the
handouts I prepared for the class.<BR><BR>Hey, if you don't believe me,
ask Mark Stivers.<BR><BR>regards<BR><BR>Terry Miller<BR>
