USPS: Shippers to receive “Thank you” cards

CARDING CUSTOMERS

Shippers to receive “Thank you” cards

Business customers everywhere are interested in learning more about shipping with the Postal Service — thanks to recent advertising and Business Connect activities.

Because of the increased interest, volume and revenue generated, USPS wants to deliver an important message to customers — “Thank you for shipping with the United States Postal Service.”

That’s why every Post Office will receive “thank-you” cards to be handed out to customers shipping packages next week.

The cards feature San Mateo, CA, Retail Associate Juvy Bodestyne and a “thank-you” message on front. The back of the card introduces easy-to-use solutions such as online shipping, Carrier Pickup Online Notification and Flat-Rate Priority Mail boxes.

The cards are addressed to postmasters, and station and branch managers with the words “Important Customer Communication Enclosed” printed on the outside of the package. Distribute these thank-you cards to retail associates so they can give them to customers shipping packages during the week of May 16-20.

As they hand the card to the customer, ask them to say, “Thanks for shipping with the United States Postal Service!”
