Typical Solutions

Whilst no two charity's requirements are the same, over the years we have delivered the following mailing solutions to our customers within the charity/third sector

Fundraising Campaigns – envelope enclosed, with multiple leaflets or booklets and BREs. Have also setup and managed freepost return services. Experience has shown that highly personalised letters based on segmented data yields the best results.
AGM Letters – either information only or with unique identifiers to enable online voting.
Membership Mailings – depending on format these can be envelope enclosed but are more typically polywrapped. This also provides a good opportunity for sponsorship revenue by including literature or samples from advertisers.
Order Fulfilment – order processing and despatch of volunteer materials or the fulfilment of your charity’s merchandise.
Event Awareness Campaigns – looking to raise awareness for a particular fundraising event. Usually either postcard based on letter based or envelope enclosed with a view to keeping costs of campaign as low as possible.
Annual Report Mailings - typically either envelope or polywrapped depending on the Annual Report's format.
Mailing List Supply – based on new potential markets identified, or based on segmentation of existing donor list
