Have you heard of the new United States Postal Service (USPS) product?  It is a great product for small businesses.

EDDM allows businesses to pick the area they want to reach, print an advertising piece, take to the Post Office and Pay the Postage and the piece will be delivered within 48 hours.  Lot of work to do for the small business owner in an already overworked schedule.

We have the solution.  We have picked 15 potential strategic areas to advertise, all within 5 miles of the Super Walmart at the corner of Andrew Jackson and Lebanon Pike in Hermitage, Tennessee.  These areas are located in Zip Codes: 37076, 37138 and 37122.

In 37076-Hermitage: we have Camden Woods, Wembley Downs, Truxton Park, Lexington, Fox Run, Tulip Cover, Cedar Creek, Tulip Reserve, Chesney Glen, Brookside Woods, Brookside Park, Blossom Trace, Walden Woods, Sunset Woods, Jackson' Grove and Tulip Grove Pointe.

In 3713ld Hickory: we have Southfork, Hickory Hills, Langford Farms, Hunters Crossing, Lakeshore, Brandying Farms, Brandying Pointe, Plantation Walk, Cleveland Hall, Merritt Downs and General Kershaw.

In 37122-Mount Juliet: we have Willoughby Station, Cedar Creek, Mount Vernon Woods, Timber Trail, Brookstone, Caldwell and Division Streets.

All 3 Zip Codes include 16 Postal Routes that reach over 11,607 homes.  If a business wanted to reach all homes with a full page ad that is 6 inches tall x 12 inches wide the cost including postage is $6,595.21 or 57 cents per home.  If a business wanted to share the same space with another business the cost including postage for each business would be $3,357.61 or 29 cents per home; now if the same size space was split with 3 total businesses in a space 4 inches tall x 6 inches wide the cost would be $2598.40 including postage for 22 cents per home. 

Or, the business can chose to pick one of the 16 areas to advertise.  Let's take Willoughby Station and we have 3 businesses: Gateway Tire, The UPS Store Hermitage and Cyeses Pizza.  The total reach in that area is 648 homes. The postage is 92.02 or $30.67 each plus printing fee of $168.00 each for a total of $198.67 for printing and postage (file design is $90 for the card or $30 each).  To reach each home 31 cents each home.  Take into effect that today December 1, 2011 a postcard stamp is 29 cents, soon to be 31 cents.  How can you reach the same amount of homes for the cost of the postage stamp with a full color 4 x 6 card advertising your business.   That is the great news of this program.

We can handle the Logistics: Print, Mail, and Design you piece.  Just pick the area, route and we will help you accomplish your goals.

Call us at 615-871-4627 or email us at store2279@theupsstore.com and we can solve the problems.  In your email, put Subject Line as EDDM.

The UPS Store in Hermitage will be closed on Monday, May 28.  We will reopen on Tuesday May 29 at 8 am. UPS and USPS will be closed also that day.  Be careful on the highways and lakes.  Remember to call us with your EDDM ads.

Ash Wednesday is a wake-up call.  Ash Wednesday hits us squarely between the eyes, forcing us to face mortality and sinfulness.  We hear Scripture readings that are urgent and vivid.  It is a tough day, but take heart.  This is one religious day that won't fall into the lcutches of retailers, there aren't any Hallmark cards celebrating sin and death; no shop windows are decked out with sackcloth and ashers,

Ash Wednes is the gateway to Lent.  We have forty precious days to open ourselves up mot to God, to examine ourselves in the presence of one who created us, knows us and loves us.  We have forty days to face ourselves and learn to not be afraid of our sinfulness.  We are dust, but with God's grace we can learn to live this life more fully, embracing our sinfulness, allowing God to transform us.

Our shredding date for February will be on February 22.  Be sure to have your shredding to our store on February 20 to avoid missing our truck.
