We've all heard the typical donor complaint that we spend more money thanking them for their gift and asking them for their next, than we end up spending on the programs themselves! With rising donor concerns and the economic forecast continuing to sag, it remains critical for businesses to continually strive to cut costs. This couldn't be more crucial than in the nonprofit work we perform on a daily basis. Understanding the benefits of working with the postal service to receive the maximum discounts available on your nonprofit mailings is one way you can be an effective steward of your organization's funds. Discussion topics will include:

Nonprofit standard mail eligibility—Publication 417
CASS File certification requirements
NCOA-data hygiene techniques/list "scrubbing"
Intelligent mail barcoding—**Mandatory beginning May, 2011 (to qualify for USPS automation discounts)
Alliance of Nonprofit Mailers, Direct Marketing Association
Major accomplishments in postal reform
