Still Need help with Mailing

If you are going to employ mailing services effectively, you need to make sure that you are getting the maximum impact for a minimal cost. That means making sure your mailing goes to a specifically targeted audience and getting any available discounts to reduce your postage costs. With our state-of-the-art mailing software and addressing equipment, we not only save you time and eliminate the production headaches, we can get your mailing directly to your customers faster and for less money.

What will you do with any duplicate or poorly formated addresses from my list (CASS Certification)?
The first step in reducing postage cost is to make sure the address records of your mailing list are within the standards set by the U.S. Postal Service. KD Mailing & Fulfillment uses CASS (Coding Accuracy Support System) certified software approved by the USPS. We repair recognizable addresses that are incorrect, and standardize them to meet these USPS specifications.

Can you clean our mailing list that includes duplicate and similar address?
Yes. We combine (merge) two or more lists, and remove (purge) the names and addresses that appear more than once. This gives you a clean list, so you don’t waste money mailing to duplicate records. KD Mailing & Fulfillment’s cutting-edge merge/purge software standardizes and corrects all possible addresses in your lists, then creates a special merge/purge sequence to eliminate the true duplicates and keep the good addresses.

What can you do to identify customers that have changed their address?
You’ll want to consider using NCOA (National Change of Address) on your in-house mailing list at least once a year. NCOA uses data updated by the U.S. Postal Service every week to identify individuals, families and businesses that move. KD Mailing can apply NCOA to your list to identify and correct people who have moved. We can even manage your mailing list for you so that you can concentrate on your business.

We have large volume mailing needs. Can you handle our unique requirements?
KD Mailing has multiple state of the are mailing services equipment that can address up to 1.5 million pieces per day! We also have a 100,000 square foot warehouse that can accommodate large, changing requirements.

We have a mailing project that needs to be done ASAP. Can you help us?
Yes. Our digital print on demand services is perfect for your quick runs and those unexpected projects that need to be shipped tomorrow. All you need to do is e-mail us your PDF. If you want, we will produce several samples and you can have them sent via overnight carrier. Since there is virtually no set-up or pre-press time compared to a traditional offset printer. In most cases, your printing can be completed and shipped the same day of your approval.
