Mortgage professionals can now add an extra punch to mailings by designing U.S. postage stamps printed with their photos, logos and/or website addresses on them.
Earlier this year, three web-based companies announced the ability for customers to take photographs and turn them into U.S. postage stamps -- stamps that can add a personal touch to mailings. Now, because of new postal regulations, businesses can reap the benefits of personalized postage, as well.
Put your logo on a stamp. Sending out a flyer? Postcard? Brochure? Personalized mailings with postage featuring your company logo and website can grab attention and add a memorable touch to your marketing pieces.
Tell your referral partners. Show your appreciation for referral partners by telling them about this clever marketing strategy.
Give them to your clients. As a closing gift, your business-owning clients will appreciate postage stamps with their logo and website printed on them. Stamps made from photos of their children are great gifts, too.
