[WISPA] Postage
Hi, I'm curious what everyone else is using for sending USPS letters and packages? We've had a nice postage machine (seals, stamps, etc.) that does our envelopes each month (about 1,500 per month). However, I'm getting tired of these companies (Neopost) charging $200 for a software update because the post office changes their pricing. What is anyone else doing? We send about 1,500 envelopes on the 20th of each month, and then only a couple a day the other days. thanks, Travis Microserv WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Postage
Something else you can do is use a printing co. There should be one local to you. They should be able to print, stuff and qualify for bulk rates. Something else we did, we had 220 people in my subdivision, it was 92 bucks for postage, plus envelopes, plus printing, plus paper etc. (non-profit subdivision here). We had a printer sent out cards with the yearly dues on them, for less than 15 cents a piece including printing, postage and cards! -- * Dennis Burgess, CCNA, A+, Mikrotik Certified Trainer WISPA Board Member - wispa.org http://www.wispa.org/ Link Technologies, Inc -- Mikrotik WISP Support Services* *Office*: 314-735-0270 *Website*: http://www.linktechs.net http://www.linktechs.net/ */ Link Technologies, Inc is offering LIVE Mikrotik On-Line Training http://www.linktechs.net/onlinetraining.asp/* Travis Johnson wrote: Hi, I'm curious what everyone else is using for sending USPS letters and packages?

We would e-mail invoices on the 25th and reminders on the 5th. Then suspend service on the 20th and charge $25 to reconnect. The other option is a payment coupon book. Only need to mail once.

Re: [WISPA] Postage
We recently had to replace our Pitney Bowes postage machine after 10-15yrs of service from it. It was a good old machine.klunkdy-klunk as letters were pushed through it. It still worked fine, but became obsolete and longer supported etc, etc. The new Pitney Bowes machine is pretty slick and we also now have a envelope folder/stuffer that allows us to insert fliers along with our invoices/statements. We only serve businesses and most of our clients prefer a mailed statement. Some even require it.

Re: [WISPA] Postage
We charge a higher amount for business class service. For those customers, we will send them a paper bill for free, but only when they ask and we try to get an email address from them. For those customers that we charge $500-$2000 a month, we don't even ask, we just send them a paper bill. For residential, we ask for an email address and tell them that there's a $2.50 charge for a paper bill. This has been acceptable.

Re: [WISPA] Postage
We send out email bills. If you want a paper one then we charge an extra $1.00 per month for it. That covers the cost of licking and stamping. We also use pre-glued stamps. Just peal and stick.
