www.thewrightblog.com - As I'm sure you've heard - our United States Postal Service is rumored to be closing several offices. Sources say over the next three months, more than 3200 post offices and retails outlets - out of 34000 - will be reviewed for closure or consolidation. Our post office managed themselves to a $3.8 billion dollar loss last year, and they are facing an even greater loss this year due to the sharp decline in mail volume and our weak economy. Questions remain - will they increase postage to cover the costs? Maybe they will shut down our favorite post office locations? Either way, this situation has serious implications for us at direct marketers; so I'd like to set the record correct on why this is a GOOD THING for our industry, not bad.
