Jill McSheehy, of Cogswell Motors, says…

“We use the standard and jumbo postcards for sales and service related promotions… with Adobe Photoshop and Microsoft Word.  I continue to use you because of the competitive price and the ease of ordering and shipping.  You guys have always been good at checking up on me to see if I need anything without “hassling” like some companies do.  We have found that postcards are more economical and have a better response than letters, which is why we continue to use them.”

Tweeting the Old Fashioned Way

Q:  What is the distinction between when you are able to use the $.26 post card postage rate and the $.44 regular rate. Do you have to have one blank side to qualify for the postcard rate when it is mailing?

A:  The current postcard rate is $0.28.  Your card must be between 3.5”-4.25” high and 5”-6” long.  You can have printing on both sides as long as there is still room for the address and postal bar code information.
