<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><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Terry: I ran across your email in my piano
files, and was reminded that I have been meaning to try the USPS mailing
service. I would like a copy of your handout very much.</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>
