Machineable Personalized Mail
Canada Post has built a stronger postal network by streamlining its processes and upgrading its machinery and equipment. These changes have allowed for more efficient services and enhanced offerings. The catalyst behind this is what Canada Post has coined as Machineable Mail.
What makes mail machineable? Your mail needs to meet certain criteria with respect to artwork placement and addressing. The idea behind this is to ensure that the mail can move through, and be read by Canada Posts automated processing equipment.
Whats in it for me? By making your mail machineable you are eligible for an up to $0.08/pc discount on postage towards your Personalized mail projects. Think of it as $80.00 in postage savings for every 1,000pcs sent out in your Direct Mail campaign.
