I would like to thank all of the Mail Centers that participated in our wasteful mail watch campaign for a recent mailing of a certain, “BIG BOOK”. A big book that comes in a white box with red lettering, but I won’t name names or divulge details for privacy’s sake. But, I will say, all of your feedback was awesome! Now we have concrete evidence that a significant percentage of this mailers campaign was not received by their intended recipients. For a sample of some of the feedback about this mailing please read below!
