Promotional Marketing’s eCatalogExpress.com service proves to be even more beneficial as the Postal Regulatory Commission announces higher prices for mailings and catalogs, effective May 14. While traditional catalog mailers will suffer increased costs of up to 40 percent, suppliers and distributors who utilize eCatalogExpress.com will bypass the postage hike through the service’s reduced print, postage and fulfillment costs.
The new rates recommended by the regulatory commission have given rise to concern, especially those changes for a small, but significant, minority of catalogs, which would increase by as much as 41 percent, according to the United States Postal Service. Even with a request from the post office to the regulatory commission to reconsider this steep increase, it will still go into effect this May.
Promotional Marketing Publisher, Matthew Barnes, explains, “We developed eCatalogExpress.com to improve distributors’ and suppliers’ catalog fulfillment while reducing their costs. With the upcoming postage changes, we are pleased to offer an even greater cost benefit to the industry.” To view a sample eCatalog, go to www.pmcatalog.com/bella or www.eCatalogExpress.com.
eCatalogExpress.com is part of the Promotional Marketing Publishing Group that includes Promotional Marketing magazine, PM End-Buyer Catalogs, PMDM.com as well as other online products.
