"I've been with VentureDirect for a little over 2 months now and absolutely love it! As part of the Consumers team, I represent lists of people from all walks of life, who are interested in just about everything- from alternative health remedies, to Hollywood, religion, golf, and travel, as well as political party donors, senior citizens, and so much more. It's great being able to let clients know that no matter how "niche" their market, we have a list that's perfect for them!

I look forward to growing with Venture and continuing to help our clients reach their marketing goals."

Coping with the postal increase ...

   The May 14th postal increase has sent mailers scrambling to find new ways to avoid or minimize the cost of the increase. Many mailers are converting to letter size or stuffing their mailings with more information, as the cost of a 1.5-ounce letter is the same as a 3.3- ounce letter. Michael Plunkett, acting Vice President of Pricing & Classification for the USPS, offered some valuable advice when he said, "a clean list is one of the best ways for a mailer to save money." At VentureDirect Worldwide, we follow this advice because we know the value of good clean deliverable names. All our lists are run through the NOCA, LACS, CASS and DPV, which come this August, will be standard requirement for USPS. Let VentureDirect provide you with a list for your next campaign that will not only perform, but save you money as well by avoiding undeliverable addresses.
